City Hunter
City Hunter is a Japanese comic book character and this film is full of comic strip slapstick. Be warned this is not a film to watch in a serious frame of mind as the silliness can be almost over the top. Jackie plays a womanising private eye hired to find a runaway princess, who stows away on a luxury liner that is about to be hijacked. It's a must see for any fans of the Street Fighter arcade games as there is a scene where Jackie and three other guys get transformed into characters from the game and proceed to fight it out -- but unlike the Street Fighter film it's true to the game with fireballs, sonic booms, Dhalsim's stretchy legs and all. The scene is brilliantly choreographed and hilarious to watch -- especially when Jackie turns into Chun Li.
