Editorial Review:
Former Miss Malaysia and current butt-kicking Hong Kong action star Michelle Yeoh leaped to international attention costarring alongside Jackie Chan in Supercop. The film was actually the third installment of Chan's successful Police Story series, but that didn't stop cagey producers from turning out Supercop 2 as a solo vehicle for the lean, lithe Yeoh. She travels from mainland China to Hong Kong to "advise" local cops on a Chinese drug lord and discovers Rong Guang Yu (from Iron Monkey and Rock and Roll Cop), her former lover and now the leader of a militia-style gang in partnership with her quarry. Yeoh is in fine form, kicking off the picture with a thrilling close-quarters battle in a high-rise hotel, but the complicated plot of high tech crime, double crosses, and conflicted loyalties strangles the action and slows the film despite such action highlights as an impressive three-man raid on a well-armed criminal den. (Jackie Chan's jokey cameo as a cop in drag doesn't really help matters.) The film finally regains its energy in an explosive free-for-all bank heist climax, in which the painful English dubbing becomes all but unnoticeable as bullets fly, bodies crunch, and balletic Michelle Yeoh moves like a dynamo. --Sean Axmaker
Supercop 2 [Region 2] Reviews:
low-kicking non sequel, at least it doesn't continue anything from the last movie. 
2006-03-26 - Well I guess michelle is still a cop like she was in the last one, she just isn't funny or good whatsoever in this.
So I read a review that said that this is a michelle film and they are right. What they didn't say is that this is the most boring hong kong flick ever. Not one of them but the most boring and one of the stupidest.
The movie actually starts out really good but when Rongguang Yu leaves michelle to herself, there is a ton of standing around.
Oh yeah the iron monkey is in this, and not even he can save it. i actually think that he could have saved it, but whoever directed this was obviously trying to get into michelle's pants. So obviosly he didn't and he was maybe trying to ruin her career.
I love michelle and could make it through this, but if you liked supercop 1 and are expecting to see something similiar, DO NOT WATCH THIS.
Also jackie is in drag in this movie, his scene last for 2-3 minutes and it is one of the 3-4 bright spots in the movie. JACKIE YOU RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
stay with an original 
2004-02-23 - Why American production make HK movies look so cheap? First of all, they cut off so much scene, second of all ruin it by making look acting so dumb by English Dubb. For ANY of HK movies, ALWAYS stick with ORIGINAL LICENSED HK RELEASE. Be careful with cheap imports, boots though.
Supercop 2 (1993) 
2002-11-12 - This is a Michelle Yoeh film and NOT a Jackie Chan film. Infact Jackie only appears in a hialarious 5 minutes of the whole film. Michelle is sent to Hong Kong to stop a gang, but what she doesn't know is that it is her own boyfriend who is the leader of the gang. As a result she's torn between love and honour. Which side do you think she'll end up going with?!
