When I go to the theatre, I never expected that Police Story 5 (New Police Story) is not a sequel to Police Story 4 (First Strike). I always expected there's Uncle Bill in every Police story series. So, this one is quite surprising for me as a fans of Police Story series. But still, this movie is wonderful in the story, the cast, and most of all, the action.
Jackie Chan is back to what he's good at. For some years, when Jackie is making movies for Hollywood filmmakers, I always miss him with his famous JC Stunt Team. It's not fun to watch a digital fighting scene like the ones in 'The Tuxedo'. That's why, New Police Story is like a fountain in the desert to JC fans like me. JC is back to HongKong, to his JC Stunt Team, and with Benny Chan (again) they're making a full-of-action movie, with good story and cast as well. Here, JC shows that he can also plays an emotional scene (besides plays funny or do action scenes).
Daniel Wu also plays well, and I hope to see him more in future HongKong movies. This movie also has surprising ending on how the relationship between JC and Nicholas Tse begins.
