As he battles with departmental corruption as well as ruthless pirates in a seemingly never-ending struggle for control of the dangerous waters, you’ll be thrilled as Jackie literally throws himself into some of the most amazing movie stunts ever captured on film. Directed by Jackie Chan – 101 minutes; Starring Jackie Chan, Maggie Cheung, Rosamund Kwan.

Librarian and film historian Chris Poggiali, co-author of These Fists Break Bricks: How Kung Fu Movies Swept America and Changed the World, will introduce and discuss the film.
