Summary |
|
D & B Film Distribution did a midnight screening only in Hong Kong on 1988-08-13. Jackie Chan's one-man war on a criminal gang has earned him a reprimand and a demotion from detective to traffic cop, not to mention continual harassment by the gang. He decides to take a long-overdue vacation but his leave is cancelled when Hong Kong is hit with a wave of bomb scares. Jackie unofficially follows up some leads of his own and tracks down the suspected gang. Knowing that Jackie is close on their heels, the gang kidnaps his girlfriend in order to force Jackie to turn against the police. In a spectacular climax rivaling that of the record-breaking original, Jackie rescues the girl and brings the gang unceremoniously to justice. [Rim Films Catalog]
Did you know that Maggie Cheung cracked her skull in that final scene? That's why they didn't show her anymore because they had to get a stand-in. My cousin said that they would have had more story afterwards showing their relationship had she recovered. [HKMDB member Jay Fong] |
