In 2009, director Quentin Tarantino named Police Story 3 as one of his favorite films of the past seventeen years.

 

To infiltrate a drug cartel, police Inspector Chan Ka Kui (Jackie Chan, Rush Hour, Rumble in the Bronx) goes undercover in a Chinese prison. There, he earns the trust of Panther (Yuen Wah, Kung Fu Hustle), a cartel member, by breaking him out of prison. With the help of another undercover agent (Michelle Yeoh, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon), they travel to Hong Kong and join up with Panther's gang. Ka Kui is accepted by the gang's leader (Ken Tsang), but his operation is jeopardized when Ka Kui's girlfriend (Maggie Cheung, Hero) accidentally reveals his true identity.

"As you’d expect, there are several great action sequences and the usual superb choreography. Police Story 3: Supercop is a heady mix of charm, humour and a great deal of fun." - Backseat Mafia

"As with nearly all of Chan's films, this one boasts a comic quirk to the adventure - even something of a Chaplin-esque quality to the slapstick havoc." - Gone With The Twins
