Why so much hype?

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

This is an abysmal film, whose only saving graces are the ripped-off music (from better films such as Chinatown), and a few unintentional moments of humour.One such example would be a "threatening" phone-call to the police office asking for a purse. My 4 year-old brother laughed for about 10 minutes in a badly cut scene where Lee Man Tai puts his trousers on (having thought he had slept in the Charlie Chin's bed). Go figure.There are few films more exploitative in their packaging, as Chan only appears fleetingly throughout the film, and in those scenes, there are no moments at all where Chan shines in this movie.As the lead, Chin is wooden and unconvincing, he is put to better effect in his later collaborations with Chan. All in all, it is advised that you seek the films that the title apes, namely Police Story and Rumble In Hong Kong.

Well all i can say is that this had the worst dubbing in movie history, if you see it i am sure you will know what i mean. The movie was bad but no extremely bad, there was some okay action between Jackie Chan and Charlie Chin, yes it was nice to see Jackie as a bad guy, but not with a stupid mole on his face the size of a football. The story was incredibly pointless, and all the titles are misleading, the police woman has a small part, and has NOOOOO comparison to rumble in the bronx. Chan fans may want to see him on the other side of the badge, but anyone else do not see this, even if you like Chan be prepared for a terrible film with average action.

I only saw this when I was round a friend's house a few years ago. I had to restrain myself from falling asleep.The plot was rubbish, the dubbing was among the worst I'd ever seen, the acting was rank and the whole story was a bore. Its only redeeming feature is seeing Jackie as a baddie, and even that's not enough to save it from the mire.All Jackie Chan fans - STEER WELL CLEAR OF THIS ONE!

This is a sad example of bad marketing on everyone's part. Jackie Chan appears on the box and headlines the credits although he's only in the movie for a handful of scenes. I guess it was retitled "Rumble in Hong Kong" by the Americans to cash in on "Rumble in the Bronx"'s fame, even though the two movies have nothing in common. Even the Chinese title "Police Woman" is misleading; sure, there's a police woman in the film, but she's not the main character and the story doesn't follow her like the title suggests.But as a film it isn't really 100% bad. Ignoring the unfairness of using Jackie's image and the misleading titles, the film is a basic "police vs. evil crime lord" story with the usual twists and turns, good guys and bad guys and the occasional action sequence. A good movie to see with friends, but kind of gets boring if you watch it alone. The hero isn't a police woman though, it's a taxi driver. Go figure.Hardcore fans of Jackie's will like this film because you get to see him play something other than the hero. He's not the main villain though, only one of the henchmen, so everyone else will be disappointed by his amount of screen time. Deprived of his characteristic moves, humor, and even basic character development, he becomes just another thug (they give him an enormous ugly mole on his neck too, for reasons unknown).So as a whole the movie's ok, just don't expect to see a lot of Jackie Chan or police women.
