Jackie Chan's Project A

I bought this since I enjoy 90s action films. I wish Amazon would unlock more but I believe they're region locked.

Where to begin? This is a terrific movie, and one of Jackie Chan's very best. Full of imaginative fights and stunts, Jackie's athleticism will amaze even those already familiar with him. It also features fantastic moments from Yuen Biao, Sammo Hung, and a couple of Shaw Brother's alumni in Dick Wei and Lee Hoi San.Jackie is Dragon Ma, a naval officer in early 20th century Hong Kong. His navy is taking crap from the police for losing ships and not capturing the pirate, Lo Sam Pau (Wei) and his henchmen. After they lose two more ships, the navy is forced to merge with Yuen Biao and the police department to fight local corruption, and THEN go after the pirates.Those in the know say that the uncut, remastered version from Fortune Star is the way to go. That being said, this version from Dimension does have a very good, widescreen picture with some bad English dubbing and no subtitle options. For Dimension, the dubbing is actually pretty good. If you want bad, check out any of the many Jet Li films that they've released. This one does have Danny Trejo as the voice of Lo Sam Pau. So if you're into pirates but have a hard time getting through those long, narcolepsy-inducing Johnny Depp films, give "Project A" a shot. This one has good fights AND pays homage to Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd. 4.5/5 and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.1983

Amazing, Awesome, Incredible! Jackie Chan stars in another famous film called Project A. With jaw dropping stunts and awesome fight scenes you'll want to watch it over and over again. Starting out as the Navy getting ready to sail off to find pirates to put them behind bars. But before they could have a chance to start the mission pirates blow up there ships so then there plan is ruined. So then all of the Navy men are transferred into cops. Now as Jackie Chan becomes a cop he try's to reunite the Navy back together and finish Project A and the pirates for once and for all. If you are not satisfied in this movie then try...Who Am I, Police Story, Dragon Lord, Operation Condor and many more.

I know not to expect great dialogue or Academy-worthy performances from Jackie's Hong Kong movies, and this one meets expectations. The story is not bad but the original acting is pretty bad, even before it was dubbed. That said, it still is a worthwhile view. The action scenes are top-notch, and Jackie's humor is evident throughout. Sammo Hung puts in a good performance and the chemistry between him and Jackie works. The final fight scene is very entertaining. If you like Jackie's Chinese movies, you'll appreciate this one. If you've only seen him in his American releases, you may be disappointed in the acting and production.

Great Jackie Chan movie, the only place I can find to rent or buy at a decent price, movie does have English subtitles but that was exactly what I was looking for.

If you want to get the best version of the movie, find the subtitled version (the Hong Kong version), rather than the dubbed version (look for the "region-free" or Region 0 versions. Region 1 is the US and Canada, and Region 3 is Asia only) Both versions are wonderful, but the subtitled version has a few extra scenes, without the (once-in-a-while) difficult-to-follow dubbing.Jackie Chan is the undisputed master of stunts (I still cringe when he falls from the clock!), and the bicycle chase is pure Jackie and truly wonderful! This is definitely one for everyone's action collection, especially if you can get the subtitled version!

One of my favorite movies. Action,comedy

Jackie Chan!

昔ジャッキーチェンさんの映画を良く映画館で観てて懐かしくなり購入しました。派手なアクションに加えて手加減なしのカンフーはとても魅力的で時計台からの落下シーンはヒヤヒヤしたものです。最後のエンドロールの時のNGシーンはとても感心して観てました。

DVDで持ってましたが、安くなったのでBlu-rayを購入しました。好きなので何回見ても飽きません。

好きな俳優さんなのですごく好きなので買いました

誰もが書き込んでいる、その通りの面白さ。説明なんて要らない、分らない人は観れば分かる面白さ。

洋画は字幕派ですが、ジャッキーに関しては吹替で見るようにしています。それだけ石丸博也さんの声は大ハマリなわけです。
