So Jackie Chan's Hollywood era has his characters mimicking Jackie's real life personality, a kind, well-mannered and easy going guy who unwillingly gets thrown into things like espionage, conspiracy and gang wars. Rumble In the Bronx, First Strike, and Rush Hour are prime examples.
In Police Story Jackie Chan embodies none of those things, he's ferocious and vicious, his face looks like he's ready to pound someone to the ground at any given moment. He plays a cop but he's willing to bend the law, play by his own rules and go overboard all the time to get his man. His stuntwork takes center stage here, the things he was willing to do like put his body at great risk to please the masses is a testament to his love for his fans and his craft.
Action scenes come fast and furious and they are edge of your seat all the time. No need for CGI, plenty of entertainment and a rewarding performance from Jackie Chan. The supporting cast lends a massive hand as well. The coordination is very good from all involved.
