A young man visiting and helping his uncle in New York City finds himself forced to fight a street gang and the mob with his martial art skills.
 
Action.  You watch this movie for the action.  Nuff said.
 
FUN FACT:  The script called for a leap from the top of a parking lot to a fire escape on the floor below on the building across the street. As is his custom, director Stanley Tong attempted the stunt before asking any actors to do so. He tried it with the help of a cable harness, but quickly decided it would be safer without the harness. The landing point was not visible from the point where the jump began, so tape was placed on the take-off point as a guide. The jump was completed perfectly by Jackie Chan on the first attempt, doing his own stunts as is his custom. The jump was captured by four cameras.
