Goofs

During the bus chase in the beginning of the film, when the bus goes down the street with road works the goon holding the knife on the driver is actually holding the knife with the blunt edge against the drivers neck.

Share this

When Kevin/Jackie is climbing onto the bus using the umbrella, as he reaches around the side of the bus we see the handle of the umbrella is clearly bent, but in the next shot, which looks back to him reaching round side of the bus the handle is back to normal.

What are the differences between the Hong Kong Theatrical Cut and the special Japanese Laserdisc Version?

It's a curiosity that several Jackie Chan movies are available in Japan in a special cut and Police Story is just another example. Here the Japanese Laserdisc features an extended cut that runs nearly six minutes longer than the well-known theatrical version. There is for example a prolonged opening sequence and a new birthday surprise/briefing scene and several other changes. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
