动作电影赏析: 成龙 WHO AM I (1998)

“My skull, my eyes, my nose three times, my jaw, my shoulder, my chest, two fingers, a knee, everything from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet. [Listing what body parts he has broken]”

“Do not let circumstances control you. You change your circumstances.” —— 成龙

Plot: Jackie Chan, a member of a CIA-sponsored multinational black ops special forces unit on a mission to kidnap several South African scientists working on a highly volatile secret compound, falls victim to a staged “incident” which results in the death of his colleagues. Jackie survives, but is stranded in the African veldt with massive memory loss. When asked by natives for his name, he replies “Who am I?” which they take for his real name. Jackie – all the while having flashbacks hinting at his true identity – proceeds to befriend two beautiful women: Christine (Michelle Ferre), a CIA agent disguised as a journalist, and Yuki (Yamamoto Mirai).

As it turns out, renegade ex-US Army officers and black market arms dealers are illegally exporting the secret compound, and Jackie is the only potential threat to their operations. Thus, agents are sent out to stop Jackie before he can expose their criminal activities. Jackie defeats numerous bad guys in his own incomparable style, performing the movie’s signature stunt on the steeply-pitched glass roof of a modern office building. Afterwards, he comes to terms with his identity.
