It was a movie I watched and liked very much in the past. I watched the film and, unlike most of it, it was as good as it was back in the day.Also, Jackie Chan is not one of the ordinary action-comedy movies. It was easy to find the fugitives.The scene of the scissors on the bomb stage was so beautiful. I just filled my eyes in the final scene of Filmin and it was over. It was very beautiful too.Filmin music was bad. Criminal characters were bad except for the type, but their characters were well chosen. Series 1667 favorite character was a character that should really be a favorite. It was a nice film, though the quality was not very high, even though the clothes were big.

Jackie Chan's much-heralded return to Chinese cinema is an engaging crime thriller that focuses on emotion and characterisation in the face of more superficial action. That's not to say the film is totally devoid of incident – in fact there's a ton of in-your-face adventure to enjoy – but the emphasis is very much on the darker aspects of the genre. The film begins in excellent form as Jackie defuses a hostage situation and then moves into pitch-black territory as he becomes responsible for the decimation of his entire team. The next hour of the film chronicles Jackie's rehabilitation in his attempts to catch the criminals. The film is very good because it adds a lot of depth to the bare-bones, somewhat predictable storyline we're all familiar with. Jackie was obviously keen to get his teeth into heavier material and his acting here is particularly strong, one of the acting highlights of his career.Action-wise, the plot delivers some impressive set-pieces, with plenty of nods to incidents in the first two POLICE STORY movies – although the films are not connected in any other way. There are lots of high-rise jumps off buildings and other gravity-defying incidents, which are put into the plot with the invention of the criminal gang being fans of extreme sports. There's an interlude with a speeding bus that recalls SPEED favourably and an action-packed climax that includes an impressive martial arts bout in a Lego showroom (great stuff). However this is one of the few hand-to-hand fights in the film as there's a greater proliferation of firearms and weapons action throughout. Jackie is well supported by a young cast, particularly Nicholas Tse as his young accomplice who galvanises him into action. The villains are suitably loathsome although they're given greater motive than most, and the special effects and explosions are all spectacular. NEW POLICE STORY is a solid action film you can get your teeth into, without all of the dumb Owen Wilson/Chris Tucker comedy that spoils Jackie's American productions.

Today I would like to introduce the movie New Police story, which was directed by Benny Chan, and released in 2004. The main actors of the film was Jackie Chan, Nicholas Tse and Daniel Wu. Wing was a great policeman who could solve every case he met, however, once all his team members were killed during a mission to arrest a criminal gang which was leaded by Joe (Daniel Wu). Wing was sorrowful after that tragedy in a long time because he thought as the team leader he should take charge of that accident. Then Fung (Nicholas Tse) bucked up Wing and finally they solved the case. At first I was attracted to watch this movie because I was a big fan of Jackie Chan, I have watched all his prior Police story films so I was looking forward how this latest film of the series would be. It did not disappoint me after watching it, and I became a big fan of another actor, Daniel Wu. His character in the film is a young people named Joe. Everyone around Joe thought he lived in a perfect family, his father was the North District Superintendent of Hong Kong, and his mother runs her own business, the family has both status and property, but the fact is Joe was punished hardly by his father in his childhood, so he had never felt love from his father. As a result, Joe hates the police. Furthermore, he likes violence, and he is merciless to anyone who brings trouble to his plan. Many people think he is evil, but in my opinion, Joe is pathetic. Joe's father punished him lots of times and said he was useless, and his mother thought giving him money is the way to show she loved him. His family forced him to become like this, because he could never feel true love and attention from his parents, so all what he had done was more like a child crying in front of many people in order to let them notice him. He wanted to prove that he could be better than his father, but he chose an opposite way, so he became a criminal, to challenge his father and all the police. For example, Joe was angry when he saw Wing promised he could catch him and criticized his criminal gang was childish, he knew Wing never failed to solve a case before, so he could not wait to challenge him and tell all the police in Hong Kong that he was the best. Daniel Wu acted Joe's personality and behaviour perfectly, made the audience hate Joe while he committed a crime, but also regret to Joe's story. Maybe Joe is an extreme example, but the film also showed other four young people which are examples that we can normally see in our life. All of them are from wealthy families, they could have worked in their parents company, they could have driven fancy cars and they could have been to parties with other friends, but they did not, they chose to commit crimes with Joe. They are similar to Joe, they received little love from their parents, and because they can get everything they want easily as they have money, so they wanted to try something that they have never tried before. They considered what all they have done with Joe more as a game without any thoughts of the result, so finally while they realized the situation had become without control, they were fear and regret. The film wanted to warn those parents that no matter how much money they have earned for their children, their love and care are the most important things to them. Another plot that left me a deep impression was the story between Wing and Fung. Fung was a son of a thief, his father died in an accident after he stole a bread from a shop. Other policemen treated Fung and his father's dead body without respect, but Wing respected Fung's father's dignity and tell other policemen that even a thief has the right to be respected. Fung felt grateful to what Wing had done, so he helped and encouraged Wing in his hardest time of his career. This scene was shown at the end of the movie and it was so moving. It is obvious that police hates thieves, and most of us have someone we dislike in our life, but Wing taught us that even dealing with the opposite side, respecting others self-esteem and dignity is the rule that we must obey. Furthermore, the relationship between Wing and his fiancée was admirable. They have experienced the pain that their relative died, and the threaten from Joe to their lives, but they still believed in each other. The same as other Jackie Chan's movie, the action scenes are exciting, especially the scene Wing and Fung fell from the top of the building. But different from other movies of the series, this New Police story talks more about humanity as I mentioned, it is my favourite among other Police Story movies.

I am a film critic that dislikes writing bad reviews. But i feel especially dishonored in writing this review, as it stars my favorite actor - Jackie Chan. Don't get this wrong, I'm not just disappointed in seeing my man Jackie in a bad movie(The Medallion and The Tuxedo weren't impressive) this is a critical and honest review. The film tries to be dramatic, without having any idea what message it's trying to convey, it's slow paced and the action scenes were filmed half-heartedly. The movie seems to portray Police officers as either cowardice, bullying, incompetent, corrupt and - or - moving targets. The villains are a group of rich, bored, thrill-seeking youths who commit high-stakes robberies and shoot cops as part of a game. The more cops the 'players' shoot, the more points they earn at the end. Sophisticated entertainment? Not only are their actions glorified (at least to some extent), attempts are made towards the end to draw sympathy to these sociopaths, on the grounds that their parents misunderstood them. This is an offense to the HKPD, surely? The director has no understanding of the audience, nor the slightest clue of how to film action scenes. It was once fun to watch Jackie ride on top of a bus as it drives out of control through the streets, or him tear through a shopping centre, but it came off bland. The authenticity of the death-defying stunts seen in other HK flicks, (Who Am I? being a noble example) was just not there. The majority of the movie captures him weeping over the death of his teammates, with one terrible instance where he falls on his knees in true melodramatic-opera style, in the middle of a fight scene. This is not the hero his fans have, for so long, been devoted to. In fact I objected to the very casting of Jackie Chan for I would have otherwise not bothered seeing it. The fights mostly involved guns, and the single bout that was worth any merit could have easily been executed by any dozen of cinema's rising martial-art stars. Having said this much, I should mention that this movie is part of an old franchise, as the 'new' bit in the title suggests. Yet whilst I enjoyed Rocky 6 and Die Hard 4.0 this series-reboot fails. Firstly, the Jcakie character in the earlier Police Storys' was a loose cannon and short-tempered, your old fashioned "it's not over 'til it's over" guy. Where the hell was he? I was first convinced the English-speaking distributors simply borrowed the title so that it would be familiar to the West, but I checked it out - it was actually intended as a Police Story sequel. What a waste. It seems they gave the production to a director who knew nothing about Police Story or Jackie Chan, disliked cops, and gave him a low budget. The film is ridiculously slow-paced for a police/action film, it milks dramatic scenes until it loses all impact, there is an absence humor, charm, and the exciting fight Jackie Chan is famed for. I really shouldn't judge Benny Chan, for this is the only film of his I've seen, but I can't help thinking it was all his fault. The heroes are dis-amiable and he seems to barrack for the bad guys the whole way through. The gang-leader continues to win up until the very end, he murders for sport, kills his lover instead of taking her to a hospital and shoots his friend in front of his parents. OK, I might as well give away the ending - the bad guy dies in a Police-Assisted Suicide, in slow-motion, as tears runs from his eyes (the same guy that laughed while he executed innocent people). After all this, the satisfaction of a good revenge-ending is robbed from us, as if Benny Chan expects the slightest show of sympathy to this mass-murderer. Before panning the film further, there is one thing I need to say. The pain Jackie displays (mentioned above) is genuine. But as he weeps on his knees in front of the camera, his fans understand - or at least I understood - that his character's failure to save his friends, is allegorical of the real Jackie's inability to live up to his glory days. Truly sad viewing, of a super-star's fading shine. PS don't watch this.
