New Police Story

DEmeant0r

Hi,

Has anyone seen this new movie by Jackie Chan yet and what's your thoughts on it? I don't think it'll be out in the Irish cinemas will it? I've only seen a bit of the old Police Story and it was good.

Police Story 3 wasn't great, so I wouldn't rush out to see it personally, but it might be worth a look.

PS3 (Supercop) was a good few years ago and PS4 (First Strike) was alright. Bit different to the older ones mind.
I'd check New Police Story out if it had a theatrical release here. Wouldn't bet on it but who knows. After the Medallion I'd be suprised to see anymore Chan stuff in the cinema (never saw Around the World mind)

around the world is truly truly awful. Chan is brilliant but the film is awful. The medallion was okay though I thought. I hope chan goes away from these comedy roles though and does some hard hard stuff.

from the trailer it looks like much more serious than his recent work and alot of his old work. .

"Around the World" was the worst film of the year but it was aimed at 5 year olds. But Chan has always done "these comedy roles". Granted, some of comedy is questionable but I don't see this formulaic sequence stopping unless, of course, people stop going to see it.

Great film, as is 2.
Classic Jackie Chan.

Must get hold of Drunken Master while I'm at it, but I doubt I'll find it for 3.99.

Is the disc in good condition? I was going to buy Tube for a fiver in game recantly but I wasnt sure about returns on preowned DVDs if they dont work properly.

If it doesn't work I'm sure they'll have to refund you.
Goods must be of merchantable quality, or something like that.

Karl Hungus

Yep, it works fine... few scatches, but nothing major.
