New Police Story

New Police Story is 2004 cop thriller starring Asia’s biggest action star Jackie Chan. Jackie stars as Wing a proud senior inspector of the Hong Kong police force who has never lost a case and cracks every case in record time. The movie opens with a drunken Wing staggering through the streets in Hong Kong. After throwing up, he collapses unconscious into an alleyway and you see a person in a hat and trench coat leaping lightly through the alleyway to crouch down beside him. The film then flashbacks to a time before Wing became like this where he was respected and admired by everyone.

The movie then switches to a group of five teenagers wearing masks sitting on the top of a building laughing maniacally. The youths rob a bank and deliberately alert the cops so they can massacre them. After this incident Wing promises on television to bring these teenagers to justice and with great confidence leads a squad to the teenager’s hideout, an abandoned warehouse.

As the only surviving member of this operation Wing breaks down covered in guilt as he feels responsible for his whole team’s death and sinks into drunken depression. How did this operation go so wrong for Wing’s team? This all changes until he meets Fung a street smart youth. With Fung’s help Wing gets back on his feet and this time will he be able to capture the gang? This is too good of a film to miss.
