Project A (1983)

All of Jackie Chan’s early action comedy movies have similar components: nonsensical plotline, pretty girls being dragged around (and any relationships left unresolved?), random items being used as weapons and modes of transportation, absurdly dangerous stunts that serve no clear purpose, and fat jokes at Sammo Hung’s expense.

(I guess — save for the last item — this describes all of Jackie’s movies.)

As a side note, Project A is the first film involving the “Three Brothers” (Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, and Yuen Biao), and it’s fun to see how their hilarious chemistry improves over time.
