      There IS a sequel, several in fact but really only the next one (Police Story 2) is as good as the first one, you'd also like Project A and Dragons Forever which is probably the best movie uniting the brothers Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao.

      Dragons Forever
      Armor of God I-II (AOG II AKA "Operation Condor")

    Chan jumps off a balcony and grabs onto a pole, then slides down it while the lights around him break. The pole was actually made of metal, and it was covered in light bulbs that were filled with gas. When the bulbs broke, they released the gas, which ignited and caused the pole to become very hot. The friction of Chan's hands against the pole also caused them to burn.
    In addition to the burns on his hands, Chan also fractured a finger and sustained cuts and bruises from the impact of the fall. However, the most serious injury he suffered was a dislocated pelvis. This occurred when he landed at the bottom of the pole and his body weight caused his pelvis to shift out of place. Chan was in a lot of pain, but he was able to finish filming the movie.
    The next day, Chan went to the hospital for treatment. He had to have his pelvis put back in place, and he also received treatment for his burns and other injuries. Chan was in the hospital for a few days, but he made a full recovery.

      The police dept. was also modeled after the British system and required higher police management to undergo schooling at British institutions. Although high ranking police officers back then were usually British Caucasians, there were Chinese graduates from British Ivy League schools who were eligible for police commissions in the British colony, hence the younger aged officers assigned over older native chinese veterans because they graduated from the British Police Academy.

Jackie likes to lie. He has contradicted himself because of it. For example there was a show from China that was put on youtube and he talked about when he was younger he used to do like three scenes in a day and went home to sleep. Rest was left to stuntmen. The hardworking Jackie showed up years later.(he was talking to people who were upcoming actors in China). The version we know is not real. That is just how he promotes himself overseas.

    The reason they show that stunt at the end 3 times is cos of how dangerous and impressive it was, it was live electricty running through that. He had 3rd degree burns on his hands to a point where his skin was sticking to the pole and then he cracked 2 vertibrates in his spine during the final fall of that stunt... Also the movie is jokingly referred to as "Glass story" from cast and crew due to all the glass stunts in the end climax.

Whether it’s burning his hands or having his shoulder severely dislocated,this man and his stunt team goes all in all out with their stunts.

    By the time this came out in 1985, Jackie had been in many films in Hong Kong, and had been a known star. 'Police Story' is considered by some to be one of the best action movies of all time. It would be ten more years before Jackie had his first major success in the North American market, 'Rumble in the Bronx'.
    Some other Jackie Chan movies you may want to check out include (in release order) 'Snake in the Eagle's Shadow' (1978), 'Drunken Master' (1978) ( If you watch them back to back they seem very similar, as they have the same director as well as some of the same actors in starring roles), 'Project A' (1983), 'Wheels on Meals' (1984), 'Armour of God' (1986), 'Armour of God II: Operation Condor' (1991), 'Drunken Master II' (1994) (This movie was released by Dimension Films in 2000 in a re-edited form as 'The Legend of Drunken Master ' ), 'Rumble in the Bronx' (1995), 'Mr. Nice Guy ' (1997), and 'Who Am I?' (1998).

    There are so many amazing, incredible Jackie Chan movies he made in the 80's and 90's. Operation Condor/Armour of God, for one, that had one of the most painful stuntman wipe outs I had ever seen. What I like about the Police Story/Supercop series is that it begun Maggie Cheung's career (...girlfriend May) who went on to become a prominent female Hong Kong action star herself. The crazy dynamic of misunderstanding between Jackie and May became a template for subsequent Police Story movies and his relationship with the women in his movies generally speaking. Jackie absolutely pushed the envelope of stunts in movies but also being such an iconic hero of the Hong Kong cinema movement in America.
    I hope you watch more of this series, Supercop (...Police Story 3) is probably my favorite Jackie Chan movie of all time.

    Be aware, in the primary Canto language audio, his character's name is Chan Ka-Kui, and he'll have the nickname "Kevin". But in some of the english dubbed versions of the different films, they change his character's name to his own name "Jackie Chan". But the first 4 films (+1 spinoff, Supercop 2) are the same characters in the same continuity.

    In Project A, there is also a big stunt by Jackie Chan at the end. They also show it three times. It's an artistic choice to create emphasis and not because they couldn't decide which camera angle was good. Whether anybody likes this approach or not, that's a different story.

    Rush Hour, for oldschool Jackie Chan fans, is the end of an era. While those movies would make a ton of money, and got Jackie and Chris Tucker their biggest paydays ever... his American movies were always a big step down from the 'classic' Hong Kong Chan movies from the late 70s and early 80s, and due to age and injury, Jackie's Hong Kong output wound down in the 2000s. "Who Am I" and "Gorgeous" are maybe the 2 best post-Rush Hour films

    the craziest thing is that Jackie directed this film while spending the other half of his day filming a completely different movie! In fact, he went from the famous "pole slide" stunt (they replayed the stunt from 3 different angles I think so that no one could doubt Jackie did it himself or think he used camera tricks to make it seem more dangerous than it really was) where he sustained second-degree burns, to the set of the other movie without seeking medical attention. Insane work ethic.
    And they destroyed a real shantytown in the opening sequence. They compensated the residents with new places to live apparently.

  • @predatoralpha4893
    @predatoralpha4893 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Just discovered 3 interesting facts about the movie:
    Fact #1 - All the glass in the entire fight scene in the mall is known as “sugar glass”. It’s basically just a see through brittle type of sugar that can be made to look like glass. It breaks away easily and is totally harmless so its used all the time in action movie stunts. They used it for this movie too, but it was decided here to make it extra thick for realism purposes. This means that this safe prop sugar basically became as hard as actual glass!!
    So whenever someone is being thrown through sheets of the stuff, (36:24/36:33/36:52/37:26/37:31/37:47) or when Jackie gets his head smashed against it, (36:27), they would feel the impact as if it were the real thing. The pain in their faces and the cuts and bruises they have are, by all accounts, totally legit!
    Fact #2: (38:42) Hands! Down! One of Jackie's biggest stunts to date. There was NO safety rope and NO safety net. Literally jumped onto that pole and slid down it. It took him a while to gain the courage to do that stunt. He gave a scream to psyche himself up before launching himself onto that pole. You don't hear it, but you see his mouth letting out a scream.
    Fact #3: When Jackie was sliding down the pole, he didn’t just burn the skin off his hands… no… he suffered electrocution, fractured his ribs, and dislocated his pelvis.
    **What’s even crazier is later that day hours after his initial on set recovery, he had another shoot to go to, decided he was fine and went anyways.
    When he got to the studio he found that he couldn't open the door. Next thing he knew, he suddenly couldn't move and collapsed to the floor.
    It was later discovered that he had a mild stroke. Yet, he gladly survived and was able to keep making this movie! To this day, it is hard for me to think that he is really human or if he just has that much willpower that nothing can stop him from making movies!!
    Jackie Chan isn’t just unstoppable, he is one of a kind!**

    The story behind it is even crazier. And that says a lot as this movie has a stunt has almost killed him (Christmas lights). When the Protector fell below expectations, Jackie decided to do Police Story, pulled out 1 or 2 mortgages on his home to finance the film. Acting, directing, co-producing, he also sang the theme song. It truly was his baby, And he was already a parkour master.

    In terms of martial arts movies, Jackie Chan's signature style is a very chaotic, loose, wild swinging, always on the back foot. He's always trying to avoid fighting, and to escape. By contrast, you have someone like Jet Li, who is very precise, poised and very dangerous. The Drunken Master movies are great BTW. It's a rare style within the Shaolin umbrella. It's not very practical, or efficient, but it does give the advantage of being unpredictable.

Newer Jackie Chan would include Who Am I, Rumble in the Bronx, and Mr. Nice Guy.
    For Jet Li, you're looking at Once Upon a Time in China 1-3 and Fearless.
    For Bruce Lee, any movie. Fists of Fury, Enter the Dragon, Return of the Dragon, Game of Death, and Chinese Connection.
    For Jean Claude Van Damme, The Quest and Kickboxer.

    Jackie Chan is indeed insane. He's been banged up, beat up, cut up, broken so many bones and set on fire so much, yet still laughed the Grim Reaper in the face. Other stunt actors are impressive, but Jackie Chan is number one, bar none. He's been blacklisted so much from insurance companies and sent to the hospital so much, but still carries on shooting. In Hong Kong cinema, they put a heavy emphasis on the action scenes and not so much on safety in comparison to Western films. One scene that can last mere seconds could take days, weeks, maybe months to do. You two should watch Top 10 craziest Jackie Chan stunts that almost killed him and How to Do Action Comedy.
