10 Action-Packed Jackie Chan Movies You've Likely Never Seen
3. Police Story
The chances are you've likely seen a Jackie Chan movie called First Strike already, a largely English language movie that features Chan working for the CIA in their efforts to investigate nuclear smuggling across the globe. Little do people know this movie is actually the fourth movie in the Police Story franchise, which was all started by the absolutely astounding Police Story in 1985.
Police Story is quintessential viewing. Not just for Jackie Chan fans, not just for action fans, but for every movie fan out there. It spawned a franchise that has five sequels, most of which are fantastic fun, but none quite reach the apex set by this movie. The stunts alone are simply insane, but against the backdrop of a story of a police officer framed for murder trying to clear his name, they're mind-blowing.
From the get-go, when Chan and his fellow police officers are rumbled and a shantytown shoot-out ensues, the movie just doesn't let up until the scintillating climax in a shopping mall, with an eye-popping stunt involving heights and lights.
