New Police Story Review

Postedon July - 31 - 2009

Alternate Episode Title: “Lone survivor of a police massacre!”

The latest and greatest in the long running line of Police Story films. An ambitious film for Jackie Chan that manages to engross the viewer on several different levels. Unlike most of Jackie’s other movies New Police Story has a very strong emotional core that manages to make you care about the characters more so than you would have otherwise. At times it does get bit too sentimental and overly dramatic for my tastes but I do believe that the payoff is worth it in the end. Typical of a Jackie Chan movie the action scenes are fast, fun, and inventive. Especially watch out for the fight scene in the Lego room.

If you think you’re ready to get drunk, puke, and pass out with Jackie then precede to The Hard Cast and listen to our take on New Police Story.

PS: The Blu-Ray was just recently released and goes for only $11.99 on Amazon right now which is a steal if you ask me.
