Review: Jackie Chan is the best martial arts fighting person around today. This movie has awesome fight scenes in it which I can watch over and over again. All of his movies are awesome but there is that Jet Li comign up on him so I have a voting type thing. JACKIE CHAN VS. JET LI....... WHO WOULD WIN? IF YOU THINK JACKIE CHAN WOULD WIN PRESS YES THIS REVIEW WAS HELPFUL OR IF YOU THINK JET LI WOULD WIN PRESS NO THIS REVIEW WAS NOT HELPFUL.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Jackie Chan's First Strike
Review: Jackie Chan's First Strike a.k.a Police Story 4 First Strike
is one of Jacke best films to date but I do not know why film distributors have cut about 25 minutes from this film. There are a lot more scenes that were ommitted from the international release and a couple of seconds shaved from most of the other scenes, especially the under water and funeral parade. The film itself is still very good and enjoyable and if you are a big fan of Jackie or not this film is still worth buying for the fight and stunt sequences. The story is still in tact but these other scences help explain the story better and the characters are shown in more depth. The original version was in English (mostly) with Chinese and Russian as well as being Subtitled in English and Chinese. If anyone gets a chance to buy the Hong Kong version then do so as you are in for an even better treat. I have seen both these versions of this film and I recommend both. This film in both version still stands up against the test of time so I advise you go out and buy this film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Action at it's Greatest Peak
Review: Jackie Chan's First Strike had it all. From his own death-defying stunts to his smash-acting comedy, this movie is for any fan of Jackie Chan. I suggest this to anyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: best action film in a long time
Review: Jackie Chan's First Strike is a fun, hilarious action film with the best martial arts you'll ever see in a movie. While the plot is basic James Bond material and all the actors and actresses are dubbed, it certainly doesn't matter in this movie. I was a bit disappointed that this movie was short. I was wishing it wouldn't end at all! If you've seen other Jackie Chan movies, watch First Strike, it is his best!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This movie is the best!
Review: Jackie Chan's First Strike is one of the best Jackie Chan films I've ever seen! It combines great action with a better plot. The Ladder fight and the Underwater fight are just two of the amazing scenes. The action truely shows what Jackie can do. It is one of my favorite movies and if you want a great Jackie Chan movie; First Strike is for you.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A bit disappointing
Review: Jackie Chan's First Strike was a very good movie but somewhat disappointing.The fight scenes were good.The fight on the ski slopes was nice,as were the car chase and the battle were Chan makes great use of a ladder.The shark aquarium fight was really cool and funny but too way too short.This movie was too short.I didn't like the dubbing.A good film.Rent it or buy it.But if you want better Jackie Chan movies,I suggest you check out Rush Hour,Rumble in the Bronx,Operation Condor,or Operation Condor 2:Armour of the gods.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Can't Quite Give A High Rank
Review: Ok, I saw this movie when it came out in the theaters. I saw it when it came out on DVD. Something didn't seem right about the movie. It seemed choppy. Then a few months ago, I saw it on TNT, and it seemed to flow better. Do you want to know why? Do you? Well here's why. When New Line Cinema released this movie, they cut scenes out, cut scenes shorter, and generally chopped off 5-10 minutes of the film. I HATE it when distribution companies do this. Then recently on TNT, they ran the whole version of the movie, without edits. There were scenes that just helped the flow of trhe movie and the underwater fight was noticably longer and more impressive. While this was never by any means Chan's best movie, the whole version deserves a 4 star rating. However, because this is a review of the DVD, which is lacking 5-10 minutes, I cannot give it the 4 stars. If New Line goes back to release a Director's Cut DVD with the whole version and optional Chinese language track, it would get a 4. But until then, this otherwise great movie gets 3.
