Steve Murray Atlanta Journal-Constitution What fuels "Cop" is its percolating, laugh-out-loud wit. Jul 27, 2023 Full Review Anton Bitel Little White Lies in what might be read as a measure of Changeover avant la lettre, or pre-Reunification... the duo’s sometimes squabbling, sometimes cooperative teamwork marks both the similarities and differences between Chinese People’s Republic and the Queen’s colony. Sep 28, 2022 Full Review Anthony Puccinelli Chicago Reader Supercop could become GoldenEye. What’s most depressing is that audiences might not mind. Rated: 1/4 Jun 14, 2022 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Certainly, Police Story III: Supercop knows a thing or two about martial arts and even more about action. Rated: 3/4 Feb 10, 2024 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness Even with the new ingredients, "Super Cop" possesses all the hallmarks of a Chan film: breathtaking stunts, practical effects, and a great deal of humor to offset the drama. Apr 24, 2023 Full Review Rob Aldam Backseat Mafia As you’d expect, there are several great action sequences and the usual superb choreography. Police Story 3: Supercop is a heady mix of charm, humour and a great deal of fun. Sep 21, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Ishara L Yessssss what a good combo Jackie Chan and Michelle Yeoh is! Amazing stunts, great fight scenes! Dips in energy and laughter in between those, but great stuff! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Rosana B Dos três, o que eu menos me identifiquei, lutas, perseguições, lutas, algumas piadinhas, lutas, a parte que mais gosto são as dos pós-créditos, com os erros, como o incidente do carro, Michelle Yeoh (onde realizou suas próprias acrobacias, por sinal arriscadas) e um tripulante quase morreram, quando escorregaram do carro em movimento e quase foram atropelados... Bora para mais um da sequência, faltam só dois, ainda bem… Mas respeito e amo Jackie Chan. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/03/24 Full Review Carlos T Minha opinião: Nesta 3ª sequência acertaram a mão. Depois do 2º ter sido um fiasco. Aqui Jackie redimiu, trazendo a atriz Michelle como sua parceira. Onde as policias da China e Hong Kong fazem uma parceria para prender um grande traficante. E para se infiltrar na quadrilha ele se disfarça de alguém que o ajuda a fugir da prisão. Nesta fuga ele passa na sua casa fictícia onde Michelle também acaba se infiltrando na organização. E aqui novamente temos uma mulher que eles devem proteger que é a esposa do traficante. Que tem senha da conta do banco do marido. E assim com grande ação e muitas lutas e como sempre uma boa dose de uma boa risadas. Uma das melhores cenas se passa no meio da selva onde tem uma cena icônica de Jackie e Michelle. E depois temos o gran finale que a lutas. Onde tem a cena no helicóptero e Jackie sob os vagões do trem. Umas de suas cenas mais perigosas de sua vida. Michelle faz uma atuação primordial aqui. Tanto que depois ela faz um filme solo dela como policial. A atuação de Maggie aqui é muito boa e aparece mais no filme resgatando uma maior parcicipação nesta 3, trazendo boas inrrascadas e boas risadas. Aqui quem mudou o chefe da policia. Roteiro e enredo melhorou muito Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 8 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/02/23 Full Review Petros T Brisker, more plot-driven and set in more locales, "Ging chaat goo si III: Chiu kup ging chaat" is, perhaps surprisingly, an improvement upon the first two films. Jackie Chan meets his match in Michelle Yeoh, who brings really good acting skills and great stunt work to the table. Next to the engaging and occasionally funny undercover theme, their chemistry is what makes this film, as it's believable and fun, doesn't give in to cliches and greatly contributes to the suspense of several sequences. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/20/23 Full Review Matthew B Best of Movies/TV Series Collection Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/30/24 Full Review Taylor L With Jackie Chan out of the director's chair and the writing room, Super Cop is definitely a turning point for the Police Story franchise, but in a good way. The new script downplays the domestic comedy that was so oddly prevalent in the first two films (and probably constitutes the biggest weakness in both) in favor of a more traditional Hong Kong action design, with much more in the way of gunplay and large-scale stuntwork. There's still a fair bit of comedy at play, but it makes much more sense in the context of the film rather than rolling out buffoonery for its own sake. Michelle Yeoh dabbles in some fight choreography and proves herself an even match for Chan's acting style, plus there's a welcome sense of brutality that the first sequel was sorely lacking. Lots of creativity at play, including a great Point Break-style undercover operation and a murder by durian fruit. The action sequences in this film are years ahead of anything that Hollywood was putting together at the same time. The one thing that this franchise still can't seem to figure out is how to put together a compelling ending. The big action finale happens, then there's two lines of dialogue, then credits. Gotta get some breathing room to appreciate the spectacle! (3.5/5) Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/17/22 Full Review Read all reviews
