He wrote, directed, produced, and stunt-directed “Stone Age Warriors”, which was so successful that Tong was given the job as director of “Supercop”, starring Jackie Chan. His first American film was “Rumble in the Bronx”, another Chan film. He directed yet another Chan film “First Strike”.

Plot and dialogue aside, this is a fun and goofy martial arts movie with a standout Keaton-esque performance by Chan.

This movie is the reason I love HK martial arts cinema. It started it all for me. Before this, I had never seen a Jackie Chan movie or martial arts movie for that matter. I was very young the first time I watched this and was just wowed by it. I have watched this movie many times since and I now have one hell of a martial arts movie collection.
