Police Story (1985) follows Chan Ka-Kui, a dedicated and fearless Hong Kong police officer, as he takes on a dangerous drug lord, Chu Tao. The film begins with an intense undercover operation in a shantytown, where Ka-Kui and his team attempt to capture Chu Tao and dismantle his drug empire. The mission turns into a chaotic gunfight and car chase, leading to a spectacular downhill pursuit that ends with Ka-Kui single-handedly arresting Chu Tao. However, the battle is far from over. The police need solid evidence to convict Chu Tao, so Ka-Kui is assigned to protect Selina Fong, Chu Tao’s secretary, who has agreed to testify against her former employer. Selina, however, is reluctant and constantly tries to escape. Meanwhile, Chu Tao’s men continue to plot against Ka-Kui, making multiple attempts on his life. As Ka-Kui tries to keep Selina safe, he also struggles with his personal life, particularly his relationship with his girlfriend, May, who feels neglected due to his dangerous job.

Despite Ka-Kui’s efforts, Chu Tao’s powerful lawyers manipulate the legal system and secure his release. Determined to eliminate Ka-Kui once and for all, Chu Tao and his men set a trap, framing him for the murder of a fellow police officer. Suddenly, Ka-Kui finds himself a fugitive, hunted by both the criminals and his own colleagues. With his reputation destroyed and his allies unable to help, he must rely on his own skills and instincts to survive. He goes into hiding, gathering evidence to expose Chu Tao’s corruption. Throughout this ordeal, Ka-Kui endures multiple life-threatening encounters, including brutal hand-to-hand combat with skilled henchmen and breathtaking chase sequences through the city. His relentless pursuit of justice drives him forward, even when the odds are stacked against him.

The film’s climax unfolds in a massive shopping mall, where Ka-Kui confronts Chu Tao’s gang in a final showdown. Using his incredible martial arts skills and quick thinking, he battles numerous henchmen in a series of breathtaking stunts, including the iconic moment where he slides down a massive glass-covered pole, suffering real injuries in the process. As the fight intensifies, Ka-Kui manages to subdue Chu Tao and forces him to confess his crimes. The police arrive and reinstate Ka-Kui, recognizing his unwavering dedication and heroism. However, despite his victory, Ka-Kui remains disillusioned with the system, realizing that justice is often a long and difficult battle.
