Police Story (1985)

from Crit Club · host Crit Club

After weeks of wrestling with some pretty weighty films, the Crit Club was glad to lighten things up a bit with Police Story, Jackie Chan's cartoonish 80s action flick that propelled him onto the international stage. While the stunts are stunning, the tonal shifts are jarring. Come see if we thought this movie stuck the landing or missed its mark. Other things we discussed: - Commando - Die Hard - Predator - Schitt's Creek - Letterkenny - Dune - Zack Snyder's Justice League Join us next week, where we'll return to France (as is our wont) to sink into the middle-aged dating scene, as shown by Claire Denis' 2017 film Let the Sunshine In. And drop us a line! You can email us at [email protected] or find us on Twitter with the handle @critclubcast.
