A Hong Kong-i rendőrség felügyelője, Wing a kegyetlen Joe bandájának áldozata lett. Régebben, miután egész egységét lemészárolták, Wing reménytelen szeszkazán lett az őt mardosó bűntudat miatt. Egy zöldfülű tiszt feladata lett, hogy talpraállítsa Winget és hogy mellette álljon élete leghihetetlenebb kalandjában, a Joe és bandája elleni bosszúhadjáratban. (SPI)

Jackie Chan már nem csinál olyan hiper-akrobatikus mutatványokat, mint fiatalkorában, de értelmes producerként tökéletes akciójelenetekkel pótolja a hiányukat, amelyekben remekül kihasználja a hongkongi felhőkarcolókat és általában a külső és belső helyszíneket. Azok a hongkongi felhőkarcolók valójában a város és a lakói fétisei (és a gyönyörű Bank of China esetében az én személyes fétisem is). Plusz a hi-tech érzés, ami a régi gárda a PC-játékokon nevelkedett új generáció általi fenyegetése. Rendőrsztori az új évezredben, ami nem hoz szégyent a szériára.

Having taken many misplaced steps in Hollywood, Jackie returned to his home town and, as an “apology", made another movie for his most successful series. This time with routineer Benny Chan in the director’s chair with a considerable budget behind him. And did it work? Well, yes, it did... Firstly, Jackie realized that he is no longer up to the antics that he got up to in his prime and so here he performs considerably fewer “tricks" than we are accustomed to seeing in his movies. However, they are all the more effective and, additionally, he now uses weapons just as often as he uses his hands. Secondly, he has managed to shake off the stunt clown label and, like the movie itself, he plays a dramatic role. When humor raises its head, it comes from him, but luckily there is a minimum of it here. The technical aspects of this movie are excellent, it has constantly decent pacing and good ideas, but its great plus, seriousness, is also its greatest minus. The screenplay requires from Jackie too many tricky and emotionally tense scenes and, try as he might, he doesn’t come across as a convincing character actor. In a regular Chan movie this might not matter, but here it is a problem in places. But still, Chan (Jackie, not Benny) is back. And that’s the important thing.

It's such a shame that even Hong Kong action films are starting to incorporate digital effects. Otherwise, Jackie still shines in this new version, showing that he knows when to be serious. What's more, he can also act, which might surprise some people. Jokes aside, there are also absolutely great villains here, and Police Story for the new millennium has been born and is of high quality.

You typically awkward Asian whirlwind of exaggerated emotions with incredibly effective visuals, which with its drive and overall execution pins you to your seat in many moments. Jackie Chan is not skilled in dramatic roles, but his effort cannot be denied. In most cases, he may be unbelievable, yet you can’t help but occasionally root for him. The plot is typically far-fetched, and so only the action becomes memorable in the end. The masterfully choreographed fight scenes – Chan can wield himself in an incredible way – and there is a brilliant scene at the police station as the cherry on top. The film is sometimes overly sentimental and full of clichés, but it can be endured. I did not expect such a high-quality and modernly crafted action film.
