SnoopyStyle Hong Kong inspector Chan Ka Kui (Jackie Chan) is working with the CIA to follow Natasha to Ukraine on a nuclear smuggling case. Soon he's following the bad guys to a hideout where scientist Jackson Tsui is doing a deal. He falls into the icy waters and rescued by the Russians. He starts working with the Russian FSB to find Tsui who was recruited by the CIA. He goes to Australia to get close to Tsui's younger sister Annie and their dying father.Jackie Chan is a fun charming guy. All he has to do is show up with a silly baby seal hat and it's a fun time for everyone. The plot is a mess. A few more rewrites and it could pass for a bad Bond movie. This would be a bad movie without Jackie. With him, this has a few good chuckles and some great stunts. Walking on the ledge of the building is vertigo inducing.
callanvass (Credit IMDb) Jackie, a cop, participates in a sting operation on an international spy-ring, but when one of them (Tsui) gets away, Jackie is ordered to apprehend him. This leads Jackie all over the globe starting with Tsui's sister in Australia. The story follows him as he tries to stay alive and capture the villain. This is an unrelated sequel to Police Story. It's the weakest of the lot, but as far as action goes, it delivers in a big way. Let me tell you something right from the outset. Forget about a solid storyline, its not gonna happen. It's very thin, plot-wise, and relies on big action sequences. The dubbing is atrocious, and the villains are so poor, that they are hardly even noticeable, despite a few twists and turns during this movie. Between the opening action sequence, involving some snowboarding, or some incredible stunt sequences by Jackie on a high building, and the amazing sequence, involving Jackie and a ladder, this movie is quite a thrill ride when the action sequences commence. Jackie Chan is reliable as ever. He doesn't have a whole lot to act with, but he has charisma in spades. His character shows some decent emotion at times as well. This was one of Jackie's breakout his in the USA. The rest of the actors are poorly dubbed, so it's hard to really say how they did. I also liked the well timed comedic sequences. Jackie knows how to combine action & comedy with the best of them. This is far from Jackie's best, hell. It's not even the best in the Police Story series, in fact, it's the worst. But that doesn't mean it's not enjoyable, because it is. Watch it for the action, and just have fun6.4/10
Jackson Booth-Millard I recognised the title and had seen the poster a few times, naturally starring one of the world's most famous martial artists I was interested to see it, no matter what rating the critics give it. Basically Insp. Jackie Chan Ka Kui (Jackie Chan) is the cop participating in some kind of sting operation on an international spy ring, he seems to be working for both the FBI and the Russians. One of the key spies, Jackson Tsui (Jackson Liu), manages to get away, and Jackie is the one ordered to catch and arrest him. What this leads to a is a journey across parts of the world, meeting up with the spy's sister Annie Tsui (Annie Chen Chun Wu) in Australia. Obviously along the way there are one or two fights where Jackie tries his best to fight back and stay alive, and in the end of course the case is solves after he has saved the day. Also starring Bill Tung as 'Uncle' Bill Wong, Yuri Petrov as Col. Gregor Yegorov, Nonna Grishaeva as Natasha, John Eaves as Mark and Terry Woo as Uncle Seven. Chan is obviously a good character, it is odd that he has to dub himself in a few scenes, many of the other actors are out of sync, the story is not the most engaging ever, in fact I lost track of what was going on, but there are some inventive fight sequences with Chan's cool stunt work, but apart from that I wouldn't really bother with this action thriller. Adequate!
Brian T. Whitlock (GOWBTW) This moniker wasn't a joke. This movie really proved it's point. Compared to "Rumble in the Bronx" and "Supercop", "Jackie Chan's First Strike" packed a major punch! All the sabotage, the espionage, Jackie Chan was really ready to rumble. Survive the biting cold seemed rough for Jackie, but he managed very well. Sometimes he character seemed to wonder who were the good guys and who were the bad caused some wonder. In the scene where he was heavily bugged, he didn't do bad on the old 60's song "I Will Follow You", and it was embarrassing when everyone saw his posterior, I would rather hide in a thorny bush, than to be seen nude myself, unless the women are driven wild by male nudity. Then there's the fight scene in the aquarium, where the sharks and sea urchins have their way with the victims. And most of all the ladders fight which is the most memorable of all scenes. I liked it all, the turnout, the plot and the choreography, this Jackie Chan movie is the tops. Rating 4 out of 5 stars.
