		Most of her movies shows her as someone who is prepared to die for her country, her man or her beliefs and very rarely changes her loyalty.
		In this show, she as Salina Fong is prepared to work with the police when she finds out that her boss (also family friend) is prepared to kill her without trusting or checking her loyalty.

	At-A-Glance Film Reviews: Police Story (1985)
		Police Story, the first in a confusingly named series of Jackie Chan films (there were no less than three movies named Police Story 4, with or without some kind of subtitle), has a surprisingly solid story.
		Normally, the fun of Jackie Chan movies is to marvel at his lightning-fast fight scenes and spectacular stunts, all of which he performs himself, and laugh at his unpretentious, self-effacing humor.
		Police Story has both of these, but the spotlight is on the story.

	Police Story (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Police Story would become a huge success and the prototype for Chan's films for nearly a decade afterwards.
		Not only that, many of the movie's high-powered action sequences (most notably the "mall brawl" at the end) would be used or outright copied in many other films, both in the US and HK.
		Besides a couple of slow bits in the middle (mostly dealing with the romantic subplots), the movie rarely slows down long enough for the viewer to catch their breath.

	[KFCC] Police Story Review
		Police Story offers up Chan with his expected yet unusual outrageous stunts mixed with his brand of physical humor (the bouncing and juggling of the telephones while answering them is comedic brilliance).
		However, the one "element" that always disappoints me with the Police Story films is how they under use Maggie Cheung: One of my favorite actresses and her character May only seems to grace the screen for a laugh or for a beating.
		Police Story always seems to be on people's criteria when judging any Jackie Chan film in the stunt and action department and it shows.

	Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - Police Story
		Police Story was Jackie Chan's reaction to his first failed attempts to break into Hollywood.
		The movie opens during a police operation, the aim of which is to catch some drug dealers who are transacting business near a shanty town built on a hillside.
		Police Story is a fun movie, and you should see it.

	Welcome to CampusNut.com -- Movie Reviews
		Police Story is about Kevin Chan (Chan) who is hired to protect the mobster’s girlfriend because she is a key witness who can bring down the entire Hong Kong mafia.
		As he is trying to protect her from the mob boss who sends goons, he is mistakenly framed for a crime, gets in trouble with his girlfriend who thinks he is cheating on her, and gets into plenty of fights.
		In this movie, he avoided any serious injuries, if you define serious injuries as falling 30 feet from a cliff and crashing your head against a rock (Armour of Gods) or getting clipped by the blades of a moving helicopter (Supercop).

	Opus // Movie Reviews // New Police Story
		New Police Story is the 5th film in the series (at least, in name only), and easily one of, if not the darkest and most somber film that Chan has made to date.
		In one of the movie's most affecting and moving scenes (I never thought I'd use those words in a Jackie Chan review), Wing arrives at his fiance's apartment after being tricked by Fung, who is trying to reconcile the two.
		However, the movie clearly tries so hard to be so much more than just another action-by-the-numbers film like so many of the ones Chan has made for Hollywood (and Hong Kong, for that matter).

	Police Story (1985) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Police Story possesses some of the most insane stuntwork ever put on film, and the proof of that is the sheer amount of people put in the hospital.
		Police Story is a prime example of what made Chan so appealing to audiences.
		Police Story is one of those rare cases of a film's artistic execution overcoming its typically limited genre.

	Jackie Chan: Crime Story - Movie
		All in all, the story makes sense, except for a ridiculous part in which the bad guys resuscitate a woman with their car's jumper cables.
		Crime Story fits in that category, and while satisfying, it is far inferior to Drunken Master II in that respect.
		One of the big villains in Police Story 2 (which for SOME REASON isn't out on DVD yet!!!) was picked up by Jackie Chan on the second floor of a warehouse, and thrown out the window, where he slid down a giant sign made up of many neon lights.

	Police Story
		Police Story's main theme actually sounds more like something Lalo Schifrin might have written than anything in Goldsmith's past.
		Following the conclusion of the score itself, the album goes on to include ten "library cue variations" of Police Story material, arranged and conducted by Richard Shores, which would later go on to be used as score for the series itself.
		Police Story is an obscurity, certainly, and to be completely honest my own collection would not have been worse off had it not been rescued and revived.

	New Police Story (2004)
		The obvious Jackie Chan meets Gen-X Cops marketing aside, New Police Story is a suitably entertaining action picture that presents the aging Chan in a new light: as an aging cop whose life takes a precipitous tumble.
		This is a movie after all, meaning the presence of the ultra-cute young cop is enough to bring Wing back to supreme cop status, and enough to get the girls swooning.
		New Police Story may gun for modern hipness, but some of the content is strictly out of the Dark Ages.

	"Police Story" (1973) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Ex-LA police officer Joseph Wambaugh was definitely one hot selling author in the early 1970's (and he still is today !).
		Many of Wambaugh's sharply written, incisive and confronting novels about the lives of Los Angeles police officers were made into first rate telemovies or major theatrical releases ("The Onion Field", "The Choir Boys", "The New Centurions", "The Blue Knight" etc).
		"Police Story" was also created by Wambaugh and is arguably one of the finest police drama series ever made for television.

	Movie Info for Police Story 3: Super Cop on MSN Movies
		Chan is quite simply the hardest-working movie star in the world, regularly participating in the sort of death-defying stuntwork which would make most American action heroes cringe in fear.
		In this film, third in the Police Story series, Chan plays a Hong Kong detective working undercover with the Chinese police to nab a Malaysian druglord.
		The usual hair-raising gamut of stunts follow, and numerous shootouts, fights and explosions surround the plucky cop as he combats bad guys atop a moving train, a bus, a motorcycle, a speedboat, cars, and trucks, eventually being swung through the city at high speed on a rope-ladder suspended from a helicopter.

		After a police drug bust, Chan Ka Kui arrests Selina Fong, secretary to the suspected drug boss, and after an agreement to testify against her boss, Chan is assigned to protect her from any attempts on her life.
		All the while, with her and others’ motives in question, Chan is forced to deal with keeping his job and upholding the honor of the police force.
		The film straddles between comedy and drama as it shows a satirical view of the silly parts of police life, while it later ends up entirely convincing when it depicts the bold strength of commitment and sense of duty.

		And yet he consistently gets laughed at, his movies get panned by "serious" film critics, and people always smirk and/or grimace when you suggest renting one of his movies.
		However, the movie's final third takes a darker twist when Kevin is accused of killing a fellow officer.
		Now, let me just say this: if you're watching "Police Story" and start to get a little frustrated, just be patient because you shall be rewarded.

		Stateside cop movie stars Bruce Willis and Sylvester Stallone may fancy themselves Jackie Chan fans, but even at $20 million per flick you won't see them jumping from the third floor of a shopping mall to retrive a briefcase on the first.
		If there were any justice in this world, Jackie Chan, the consummate entertainer, would get thrice their bloated salaries for the stunts he pulls in the POLICE STORY flicks.
		Police Story II provides not just bigger, better stunts, but also a mature romance for Jackie and his girlfriend, May (Maggie Cheung), offsetting their cartoony sparring in the original.

		His character name is about the only holdover from the previous movies, whose final installment was released in the States as the enjoyable, if slight, First Strike.
		New Police Story is a fine return to form for Jackie, who may be a half-century old but still has the sensibilities of a 20-year-old with ADD.
		The plot is standard fare for these sorts of things: after his squad is killed by a group of video-game-addicted rich kids who rob banks, Jackie's an alcoholic wreck with a year's paid leave to burn off.

	New Police Story Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		This is the sixth film in Chan's Police Story series—the latest installment begins with Hong Kong police inspector Chan (Chan) drowning his sorrows in a bar.
		Fortunately, a wisecracking upstart on the Hong Kong police force, PC 138 Frank Cheng (Nicholas Tse), literally pulls Chan out of his stupor to catch the gang members, who have turned their cop-killing spree into a lurid Internet game.
		Directed by Benny Chan Muk-Sing (Who Am I? New Police Story strains for depth, but the story's supposedly emotional moments are invariably cheesy, to the point of being laughable.

	Jackie Chan's New Police Story movie review \| MoovGoog Movie Blog
		New Police Story marks the return of Jackie Chan to Hong Kong movieland and maybe a much needed boost to his career.
		However, in this movie Jackie Chan no longer monkeys around and the action scenes are not heavily wired, which is a refreshing change.
		In this movie, he plays a police officer who loses his group to a gang of criminals.

		This was internationally famous Jackie Chan's breakthrough action film, the work that got him past the ethnic boundaries of Hong Kong and into competition at the New York Film Festival in 1986.
		The next thing he knows, Kevin is framed by Cho for the murder of a fellow (dirty) cop and is running like heck from the bad guys as well as the police.
		Police Story picked up "Best Picture" and "Best Action Choreography" at the 1986 Hong Kong Film Festival and was nominated for several other awards that year.

	trenchman.com - Movie Review - New Police Story
		New Police Story (the fifth in Jackie Chan's series of Police Story movies) is a pretty slickly-made film: it has a sensible (if not particularly intelligent) story, decent production values, a handful of swell action scenes, and is directed reasonably well.
		That said, the movie isn't really anything to get excited about; even for a brainless action flick, New Police Story is a pretty hollow film, filled with one-dimensional characters and situations.
		Numerous wild, improbable crimefighting techniques, obviously, are employed during the course of their investigation (this is a Jackie Chan movie, after all); probably the most ridiculous involves Wing's reckless jump off of a skyscraper using only a pair of handcuffs and a rope to slow his descent.

		Anyway, then the movie switches to a group of teenagers in carnival masks perched on the edge of a building laughing maniacally in a kind of: "Yeah man, woooh, adrenaline rush" manner which usually comes across as being a little forced.
		The bloopers at the end of the movie are extremely entertaining and I love the fact that one of the bloopers hasn't been completely cut from the movie.
		Although some parts of this movie scared me a little, there were also parts that left me at the edge of my seat, and some parts that brought me to the verge of crying.
