Chan plays an honest cop Chan Ka-Kui assigned to protect a witness whose key testimony could bring down the drug baron, Chu . However, when the witness gets away from Chan, there’s no evidence to put Chu away, and he is set free. Chu goes on a vendetta to frame Chan for a murder. Chan goes on the run. He must quickly find the witness to protect her and prove his own innocence.POLICE STORY IIPicking up where the first film ended, Police Story II returns Jackie Chan to the role of detective Chan Ka-Kui. Due to his unorthodox police work on the last case, Chan has been demoted to traffic duty…and the vengeful mobsters still have their sights on taking him down. But when terrorists threaten Hong Kong , Chan must track down the suspects. And when his girlfriend May is kidnapped by the terrorists, Chan must confront them, save his girlfriend and save the day as only Jackie Chan can.RAYMOND CHOW presents “POLICE STORY” Starring JACKIE CHAN  BRIGETTE LIN  MAGGIE CHEUNGCo-Starring CHO YUEN  BILL TUNG  KENNETH TONG  LAM KOK HUNG  LAU CHI WING  CHARLES CHAOMusic by MICHAEL LAI Editor PETER CHEUNGDirector of Photography CHEUNG YIU JOE Screenplay by JACKIE CHAN, EDWARD TANG Production Coordinator WILLIE CHANAction Director JACKIE CHAN’S STUNTMEN ASSOCIATIONExecutive Producer RAYMOND CHOW Produced by LEONARD HO Directed by JACKIE CHAN---------RAYMOND CHOW presents “POLICE STORY II” Starring JACKIE CHAN  MAGGIE CHEUNG  BILL TUNG LAM KOK HUNGCo-Starring CHO YUEN  CRYSTAL KWOK  LEUNG WAN YUI  BEN LAM  TAI CHI WAIMusic by MICHAEL LAI Editor PETER CHEUNG , KEUNG CHUEN TAK, SHEK CHI KONGDirector of Photography CHEUNG YIU JOE, LEE YAU TONG Screenplay by JACKIE CHAN, EDWARD TANGAction Director JACKIE CHAN’S STUNTMAN ASSOCIATION Producer LEONARD HO Production Supervisor WILLIE CHANDirected by JACKIE CHAN POLICE STORY/ POLICE STORY II Double Feature Special Bonus Content:
