World-famous for their action and derring-do, old friends Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung teamed up for a film that shows there’s much more to them than brawling.
Jackie plays a good-hearted cop looking after his learning-disabled brother Danny, played by Sammo, but doesn’t always succeed in keeping him out of trouble. When Danny is taken as a hostage, his brother will risk everything –Ā his career and even his life ā-to rescue him, throwing it down as only Jackie Chan can.
Made the same year as Police Story, Heart of Dragon was a change of pace for the great action artists, giving them a chance to show of their acting chops as well as their stunt skills –Ā even if they don’t ignore the latter! 88 Films are proud to present this UK Blu-ray premiere of a Hong Kong classic.
