Demoted to traffic cop after the events of the first film, Chan Ka-Kui is reinstated to the detective unit when a deadly gang of explosive experts blow up a building and threaten to blow up more if their demands are not met. Featuring yet more bravura stunt work, and even more injuries to its cast and crew, Police Story 2 is to this day considered one of the best action films ever made. (Eureka Entertainment)

Jackie Chan still delivers great punches and it is evident that he is also a capable director. He is entertaining, with truly grotesque moments in his films, which are excellently complemented by incredibly long action scenes and fights where it is beautifully visible how perfectly he masters choreography, which is, admittedly, more like a dance and not a fight, but I simply like this action circus.

Jackie either has to love cinema and his job, or he's outrageously greedy and one salary isn't enough for him. Judge for yourself - he sings the main song, he acts, makes jokes, he wrote it, participated significantly in the choreography, treats injured stuntmen, but also does stunts himself and, just by the way, he also directed it. And all this he has accomplished even better than last time, but only by the breadth of a hair from the chest of a Chinese Crested Dog. But maybe it's because this one is perhaps not more serious but certainly less cheerful and, in any case, more of an action-like sequel, that it appealed to me more. But really by just that hair’s breadth.
