The movie just got a gorgeous 4k restoration which is why they're re-releasing it, along with its sequel.

Police Story and Police Story 2 will be screening in weeklong engagements at the Alamo Drafthouse (Downtown Brooklyn), the Alamo New Mission (San Francisco), and the Music Box (Chicago) beginning Feb. 1, as well as at the Los Angeles NuArt (March 8-14), the Coolidge Corner Cinema (Boston, Feb. 1-2), Landmark’s Ken (San Dieg, Feb 1-2), the Alamo Drafthouse Ritz (Austin, Feb 2-3), the Alamo Drafthouse Yonkers (Feb. 4), the Alamo Drafthouse Littleton (Denver, Feb 6), SIFF Cinema (Seattle, Feb 8), the Hollywood (Portland, Feb. 16-23), the Alamo Drafthouse LaCenterra (Katy, Feb. 19), the Charles (Baltimore, Feb. 28), and the DIA (Detroit, May 26-28).

 

Absolutely worth a watch, Jackie Chan and his crew at the time were completely crazy.

 

If you haven't seen this movie please do so, the stunts are just out of this world. The final mall sequence is one truly unforgettable action setpiece.

 

Not sure if it's his best movie overall but in terms of pure action and stunts quality... I think it is. That or Police Story 3

 

Happy watching!

 

 

 

I hope it will post some good numbers! Rare are the opportunities to catch those movies in theater in proper format.
