Ensofter Overrated and overhyped
Micransix Crappy film
Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
sacerongray-96208 Great action scenes with a young Jackie Chan doing all his own stunts, including some pretty incredible ones. It is also a very funny comedy movie. Sure he's not an awesome actor or anything but he is definitely likable and a funny guy with an amazing level of talent for the physical fight scenes and stunt work. We really enjoyed this one.
Charles Herold (cherold) I watch Jackie Chan movies for the goofy humor and the amazing, Buster Keaton-inspired martial arts. For those, I'm willing to put up with the almost inevitable poor plotting and dopiness.Unfortunately, Supercop has the flaws I associate with Chan but fewer of the strengths.For the most part, this is not a martial arts film but a big-budget bombs-and-bullets movie in which a militarized police force battles militarized drug gangs in pitched battles. Yes, sometimes Chan or Michelle Yeoh will do a clever stunt or fight a little, but mainly this is a high-body-count extravaganza that is fine if you like that sort of thing. Some of it's decent, particularly in the last half hour when Chan gets a train and helicopter to play with, but overall I found this hugely disappointing.
SnoopyStyle Hong Kong police officer Ka Kui (Jackie Chan) is sent to mainland China to break up a criminal gang as a supposed supercop. Chief of security Jessica Yang (Michelle Yeoh) is assigned to assist him. He breaks out the drug lord (Kenneth Tsang)'s brother out of prison and infiltrates the gang. Yang pretends to be his sister.Jackie is his lovable Jackie self. He is fun and compelling. Michelle Yeoh is a terrific second. She has the charisma and a serious acting capability. This one leans more towards the action side and less on the silly comedic side. As a Jackie Chan action drama, this is quite good and like always, it has his great stunts and the closing credits to prove it. It's also great to Michelle Yeoh getting her hands dirty.
mitchellstoutapp I have always wanted Chackie to mix in more serious roles. His movies are more interesting that way. My favorite part is the who multi-part fight scene. Can you think of a movie with a fight scene with so many protagonists? In that whole scene my favorite bit is when Chackie and Michelle are trying to hide by jumping through the window back into the meeting room and Michelle trips the stick holding open the shutter, leaving Chackie to slam into and bounce off. Michell then pokes her head out and berates him for fooling around. One thing I also liked was that the film kept in a certain amount of comedy, but enough to affect the film enough to make it an outright comedy. Also, liked that first kick Michelle does as she jumps up and kicks two guys at once.
