If you liked or loved the first police story film then you definatly should invest in this sequel. Police story 2 comprises of greatly choreographed fight scenes regularly through the film with jackie chan taking on the odds in a way only he can. Unlike most martial artists Jackie Chan specialises in fighting large numbers of opponents making the visual screening very realistic as if it was a real fight. He uses his environment and his great fighting technique to help take down the overwhelming opponents. Although full of action and worth buying just for that reason, it does have a predictable story which suprisingly leaves you very satisfied once the film finishes. Those of you who are already fans of jackie chan then you should already have this in you collection, for those of you who are new to this genre of martial arts action, i would still recomend that you purchase this classic sequel! Especially as you can find it on dvd fairly cheaply on various websites. just remember when purchasing to check delivery prices as they can vary from free to exspensive. Avoid puchasing from high street stores as they seem to over price massivly compared to online.

DVD Description
Like a cross between Buster Keaton and a blender, Jackie Chan is back in the second installment of the POLICE STORY series. This time Kevin (Chan) must once again face the mobster he caught in the first film--and the criminal's not too happy about his jail time. POLICE STORY 2 also stars Maggie Cheung and Kenny Ho.
