Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAs shown beneath the closing credits, Maggie Cheung suffered a major head injury while trying to outrun the falling metal frames. Cheung was unable to finish the movie after this incident, so you never see her face. She is always shown from a distance. Crystal Kwok, who plays a policewoman in this movie, filled in as Cheung's double for the remainder of the movie.
- GoofsWhen the bomb goes off in the police station, you can see the Union Flag (British), on the front of the building, is upside down.
- Quotes
Chan Ka Kui: Dynamite is a controlled substance. There's only two ways you can get it: legally for industrial use, or it has to be smuggled in.
Supt. Raymond Li: [Top of police command] Interesting; I never thought of that.
- Alternate versionsJust like the first Police Story, the American New Line Cinema cut of the film uses the international cut as a base, but is completely re-dubbed, with Ping Wu dubbing Jackie Chan and using J. Peter Robinson's music from First Strike and Rumble in the Bronx.

Featured review
The Hong Kong super-cop (Jackie Chan) must stop a group of blackmailing bombers at the same time that the villains of the first Police Story are out for revenge.
As much as I enjoyed this movie -- the humor, the explosions, the fast kicks to the face -- it has to be said that it never quite lives up to the first film. This should not come as a surprise to anyone, as sequels very rarely are as good as the original (though some select few do tend to be better).
We still had awesome kicks, a humor that was a bit more crude, and we had way more explosions in this one (not surprising, given the villains are bombers). But we do not get to see as much glass break, and I think the overall destruction is never quite as high. How do you top the destruction of an entire village from part one?
