Movie: New Police Story – My opinion

A cop leads his team into a trap and he is the only survivor. He's drowning his guilt in booze when he eventually get a younger new partner who turns out too have his own secrets.

This is a reboot of the Police Story series. Jackie Chan is still in it but now he plays another character named Chan Kwok-Wing and guess what, he's fantastic in this. I know i have said he's been good earlier but this time he's at his absolute greatest. He shows us a lot of emotions and every emotion he shows he sells beautifully. Jackie Chan is not the only one showing his great acting-capabilities in this, Nicholas Tse is fantastic to see on screen and he has great chemistry with Jackie Chan. Even the bad-guys are interesting this time. Great cast, great characters

The story is a lot better this time around. First of all they got rid of the awkward comedy that i had a problem with. The movie itself is a lot darker in tone too. It feels more grown up, a little more aimed at adults. Very good action too, the fight choreography is top notch. This is by far my favorite installment in the Police Story series.

TL;DR

Fantastic movie with a fantastic story, Jackie Chan is at his best. This is my favorite in the Police Story series. Great action and fight choreography. They still speak Cantonese but this movie can be enjoyed by all. Simply fantastic.

My question for you:
Does it matter what language they speak in movies? Can you easily watch movies from like Hong Kong or does the fact that they speak another language stop you from enjoying the movie?
