Chan stars as Dragon Ma, an honest marine cadet in turn-of-the-century colonial Hong Kong, who must do battle with the smugglers and pirates terrorizing the south China sea in order to preserve his company`s honor. Revered by Chan-devotees as one of his finest films, PROJECT A seamlessly combines exhilarating action sequences with classic-style slapstick comedy. Chan`s energy, timing, and grace are truly infectious, as demonstrated by the hilarious opening bicycle chase and his now legendary homage to Harold Lloyd`s SAFETY LAST, in which he plummets from the face of a clock tower with only a series of window awnings to break his fall. A must see for fans of the genre! Sequel: PROJECT A II.
