Police Story 3 (5 Stars)

This is the third film in the Police Story series. It was originally released with the title "Supercop".

The Hong Kong police force wants to break up an opium smuggling ring and arrest the leader, Chaibat. One of the ring's leaders, Panther, is in a prison work camp in mainland China. Ka Kui is sent as an undercover operative, posing as a petty criminal to win Panther's trust and help him break out of prison. He's assisted by Yang, a Chinese police officer played by the magnificent Michelle Yeoh.

Back in Hong Kong, Ka Kui joins Chaibat's gang and takes part in his activities, waiting for the right time to reveal who he is.

This is (in my opinion) the best film in the series so far. There are car chases and fights on top of a train, as well as pursuits by a helicopter. The film's budget was less than a million dollars. How did they manage it?

The reunification of China and Hong Kong is a topic. When it's asked whether the money from the gang's Swiss bank account should be given to Hong Kong or China, Ka Kui says it should be given to Hong Kong, because after reunification China will get it anyway. Smart thinking!
