With the rising success of Jackie Chan this 70s flick aka police woman was re-released with the title rumble in hong kong, trying to cash in on the success of rumble in the bronx. On the box, it even makes this point. Don't buy this video. It is a pain to watch. It is awful. Jackie Chan only plays a minor role in this and the fight scenes aren't too much fun either. The dubbing is awful and the movie hasn't been reformated for standard tv viewing. Don't be like me and ignore the reviews of others, this is truely an awful film and if only I could get my money back for this.

If you're thinking of buying this video...don't! It's only worth having if it's the only one missing from your collection and then you might still regret buying it! There's very little action overall with Jackie Chan only playing a supporting role (with very bad make overs at times). The dubbing is very poor, the plot very thin and the usual high quality of Jackie's choreographed stunts are virtually non-existent. This is NOT one of his best....

...because if you are and your time is of utterly no value to you than this is the film for you. I found this film to be extremely boring. I fast forwarded through almost half of it. The fight scenes were horribly choreographed (even with Jackie). Bottom line this movie SUCKS!!! Even if you are the biggest Jackie Chan fan in the world you will have to agree this movie is a waste of time. I am sure this movie's original title was nothing to the affect of "Rumble in Hong Kong" and this is just another marketing ploy to get people to buy some crap-o film that Jackie was in a looooong time ago. On a positive note, I did enjoy the movie's soundtrack.

I wasn't sure at first whether I had seen this one or not, but When I read another reviewer's note "bad mole" I thought oh yeah...Jackie is not the main character, he plays a bad guy, yes one of those ridiculous bad guys you see in all other bad Hong Kong action films, the kind that make stupid mistakes and are no match for the Heroine/Hero. The print I saw was just as they said, terrible. Sometimes you can't even see who is talking, or you see half of their faces and the dub, oh man-shoot me now! I adore Jackie, but this is one you can skip. That mole sure was ugly...hairs sticking out....

This movie features a Jackie Chan who isn't important to the plot, only shows up rarely, and has the ugliest wierd mark on his face that I have ever seen. It's filmed insanely, has a fractured plot, and generally looks to have cost about .0025 cents to make. Avoid this movie, please.....

This is a poor bootleg of the 1974 movie called Police Woman. Though it is being marketed as a Jackie Chan film it is not. His role in it is only that of a cameo and his character is referred to as a "gang member".

The folks at budget label Madacy Entertainment are at it again. This is a really crummy transfer of a very ordinary 1974 Hong Kong action flick which has been retitled to capitalize on the success of Jackie Chan's "Rumble in the Bronx." Jackie's a villain in this one and has a pretty good fight scene towards the end of the film with the hero (a taxi driver!) that gets this two stars rather than one. The DVD includes a lengthy filmography for Chan, as well as a list of the injuries that he has suffered over the years in making his films. But other than that, the transfer is the equivalent of a VHS tape at EP speed and the source print itself is bad. For Chan completists only. All others, save your money. I paid five bucks for this and felt like I was robbed.

Don't ever watch this movie. It is garbage. Probably the worst movie I've ever seen. Jackie Chan is hardly in it.

Before I get started I want to make one thing clear. This is not a Jackie Chan movie! Jackie only comes in for a few scenes.And when he does appear he has a huge clump of hair on the side of his face! Dont get this movie confused with Jackie's box office smash Rumble In The Bronx. This movie is A.K.A. Police Women,and Young Tiger. So watch out! If you are looking for a Jackie Chan movie don't waste your money![.] If you are looking for a great Kung-Fu movie try somewhere else!
