Wong ga si je IV: Jik gik jing yan

This is one great action film. It combines the fighting talents of Cynthia Khan and Donnie Yen with Yuen Woo-Ping's excellent directing skills. The plot is something about a witness to a murder by the CIA who flees to Hong Kong. However, this movie is filled to the brim with fight scenes. Of note is Donnie's fight with Michael Woods, the dirt bike joust, Cynthia's fight in the elevator shaft, and the last big brawl. There are so many good fights, that this movie isn't to be missed.

This movie is really just an excuse for a series of superb action scenes. The stunts are awe inspiring. There is one very funny moment at the end of a crazy motorbike chase /fight sequence involving hatchets which reminded me of The Marx Brothers.

I have seen the first two movies. Both get an 8 from me. I still have to watch the third.

Highly Recommended.

I think this fourth installment to the In The Line Of Duty series is the first that I have seen. If you like cop action movies In The Line Of Duty 4 is truly first rate. This was made in the prime Golden Era of Hong Kong cinema, which means you are getting some of the best action, fights and stunts on Planet Earth. It's directed and choreographed by Yuen Woo Ping( who is one of the best of the best action chreographers in HK and the world). Yuen Woo Ping adapted well from period martial arts films to modern action pictures like this. Cynthia Khan is the leading lady and Donnie Yen teams up for a early performance. This fits into the "girls with guns" subgenre that was popular in HK, but also has lots of great fight sequences. The stunts are insane and as a whole this stands up to pretty much any action movies coming out of the east or the west. I definitely need to check out the rest of the series as I really enjoyed this fourth installment.

Director Woo-ping Yuen who also created other classic martial arts flicks, Iron Monkey 1993, Thi Chi Master 1993 and another classic modern martial arts flick, Tiger Cage 2 1990 and was action choreographer on other classic flicks, The Matrix 1999, The Matrix Reloaded 2003, The Matrix Revolutions 2003, Fearless 2006, Kung Fu Hustle 2004, Kill Bill: Vol 2 2004 and was martial arts adviser on the classic flick, Kill Bill: Vol.1 2003 has created another gem in In the Line of Duty 4.

Starring Donnie Yen who has also been in other classic flicks, Ip Man 2008, Ip Man 2 2010, Flash Point 2007, S.P.L. 2005, Hero 2002, Blade II 2002, Once Upon a Time in China II 1992, Dragon Inn 1992, Cheetah on Fire 1992 and Woo-ping Yuen's Iron Monkey and Tiger Cage 2.

Also starring Cynthia Khan.

Also starring Michael Wong who was also in another classic flick, Beast Cops 1998.

I enjoyed the fight and chase scenes.

If you enjoyed this as much as I did then check out other classic modern day martial arts flicks, American Samurai 1992, Best of the Best 2 1993, Bloodmoon 1997, Bloodsport 1988, Broken Path 2008, Chocolate 2008, The Hunted 1995, Kickboxer 2: The Road Back 1991, The King of the Kickboxers 1990, Martial Outlaw 1993, Mission of Justice 1992, Ninja 2009, Ninja Assassin 2009, No Retreat, No Surrender 3: Blood Brothers 1990, The Perfect Weapon 1991, Ninja: Shadow of a Tear 2013, Death Grip 2012 and Versus 2000.

It's non-stop fight action all the way in director Yuen Woo-ping's amazing martial arts classic 'In The Line Of Duty'.

Sporting a great line in blouson jackets (leather AND tassled suede) and tight snow-washed jeans, feisty female fight star Cynthia Khan, aided by high-kicker Donnie Yen, battles nasty gangsters and corrupt cops in this prime slice of 80s kung fu cinema.

OK, the story might not be anything special—a witness to a crime is hunted by both the police and the gangsters—but with blistering chop-socky and dangerous stunts from the opening frames to the end credits, those who enjoy Hong Kong mayhem will be in heaven when they watch this.

Using virtually none of his trademark wire-work (that, in my opinion, ruins many of his films), Woo-ping presents the viewer with a roller-coaster ride of top action set-pieces and amazing acrobatic mêlées that show off his stars' skills to great effect. Khan is easy on the eye, but deadly in a fight, and gives her all in several brutal battles, one of which sees her performing an amazing routine with a couple of spanners standing in for a pair of nunchakus, and another which has her fighting atop a moving ambulance. Yen is also on fine form, performing more than his fair share of life-threatening action, but his best moment is undoubtedly the final rooftop punch-up with the massive Michael Woods—David and Goliath, kung fu style!

Throw in some great motorcycle-fu, loads of energetic gun fights, a sword fight or two, and good support from both Yat Chor Yuen (as the unlucky witness Luk) and Michael Wong (as a traitorous CIA agent), and the result is a hugely enjoyable masterpiece of the genre.
