Twice the action!

International action star Jackie Chan stars opposite knockabout comedy sensation Jackie Chan in this story about identical twins separated in childhoods, who are unexpectedly reunited years later. While on the run from a Hong Kong hospital, an escaped convict takes an infant hostage, leaving the baby’s identical twin brother behind. While the criminal is soon back behind bars, the police can’t find the baby, who was hidden in the woods. The child is found by a well-meaning but hard-drinking woman who raises him on her own, while his brother moves to the United States with his parents. Years later, the brother raised in America, John, is a world-renowned classical musician, while the other, Boomer, is a rough-and-tumble auto mechanic who likes to race cars and start fights. When Boomer’s best friend hatches a dubious scheme to win the freedom of a nightclub singer in dutch with gangsters, he finds himself involved and in danger, just in time for John to arrive in Hong Kong for a concert appearance. The two brothers soon meet by accident, and suddenly find themselves mistaken for each other…

Two of Hong Kong’s leading directors, Ringo Lam and Tsui Hark, teamed for this action comedy, which was a major hit in Hong Kong.
