Supercop (1992)
7/10
You watch Jackie Chan movies for the action and the stunts - not the plot

This was quite a good little movie, but then what does one expect from Jackie Chan. Okay, the subtitles in this movie were really bad, but that is not surprising. Even then, one does not really need subtitles for a Jackie Chan movie because one only watches it for the stunts and the action, not intense dialogue.

A drug lord in Hong Kong is causing lots of problems in both Hong Kong and China, so they decide that they need a supercop. This Jackie Chan is hired and sent to China to begin operations. In China he teams up with a Chinese cop and they break a member of the drug lord's gang out of gaol and flee to Hong Kong where they attempt to arrest the drug lord.

As I said, there is little depth in the movie, but what we watch this for is Jackie clinging to a rope ladder from a helicopter while the pilot is trying to bash him off by flying him through signs. This is supposed to be one of his more dangerous stunts, though he seems to be injured worse in his safe stunts.

There isn't much else that I can say about this movie other than it is quite good.
