5 Jackie Chan movies from 1985 on 4K Blu-ray, ranked S to D by transfer quality.

A-Tier Eureka 4K. Jackie Chan's 1985 action classic, and the Eureka trilogy set was on sale for £23.99, shipping to the US for about $30 USD total. Eureka and Arrow both have releases. People wonder if the transfer is better than Criterion's scan of the first two films. The cars going down the hill in the first one still blows minds.

dir. Sammo Hung Kam-Bo
A policeman forsakes his dream of world travel to care for a mentally impaired brother, who is later kidnapped by gangsters.

Arrow Video · 4K Ultra HD
dir. James Glickenhaus
88 Films 4K. The American-produced Chan film where Hollywood hadn't figured out how to use him yet. Interesting as a curiosity, and the 88 Films disc is a solid presentation of a weird film.
