THE WORLD’S MOST EXPLOSIVE ACTION STAR FIGHTS FOR AMERICA FOR THE FIRST TIME.
A CIA agent (Jackie Chan) is trying to locate a stolen nuclear warhead in the Ukraine; the Russian Mafia is interested in acquiring it. Known as Police Story 4 in Hong Kong, it is an attempt to give Chan a wider appeal in the U.S. The James Bond movies must have been a source of inspiration; thereās exotic locales and a good sense of humor. Jackie is in shape; we even get to see him on stilts, and he sure knows how to swing a ladder. The story between the fights is useless, but you knew it would be.
