Movie: Police Story 2013 – My opinion

A man looking for the release of a long-time prisoner take a police officer, his daughter, and a group of strangers hostage.

This is another reboot of the Police Story series. Jackie Chan is again playing another character than in the other Police Story movies. This time he playes Detective Zhong Wen. While i don't think he is as good as he was in New Police Story, he's still very good. Again they let him show/act out big emotions and he really excel at it. He's so much more than an action-comedy actor.

The story, while not as hardhitting on me as the one in New Police Story, it is very good. It has a little darker feel to it. It starts slow but it's worth sitting through. There is one particular fight in the movie i want to point out. It was intense, it made me gain hope and lose hope several times during the fight. That's not only because it's a good fight. The stakes, the environment, the setting and the build-up made it all powerful. It was great.

TL;DR

Great movie with a good story. Jackie Chan still knows how to act. Good supporting cast. It has more story and less action. They talk Mandarin this time. A good entry in the Police Story Series.

My question for you:
Is Jackie Chan getting to old?
Do you want another Police Story movie?
