McFly's Movie House

Let's Get Physical: The Timeless Comedy of Jackie Chan's Police Story #029


Listen Later

Jackie Chan is an action movie legend known for his death-defying stunts and laugh-out-loud comedy. With his use of props and rhythmic comedic timing, Chan's brand of physical comedy is unmistakable. One of his most praised films is 1985's "Police Story," which he also directed. On today's episode of the podcast, Pat Mitchell and I chat about this beloved classic, delve into Jackie Chan's upbringing and background in the business, and discuss the celebrated stunt work in the movie. We'll explain why it's so unique and thrilling even decades after the film's release.

Patrick Mitchell is a film content creator who usually focuses on horror and true crime -- but he happens to be a massive Jackie Chan fan, too.
