3/5 stars
For the past decade, veteran action hero Jackie Chan has been single-minded in his commitment to resuscitating his paternal image through his film roles.
His latest work, The Shadow’s Edge, continues this trend as he reunites with writer-director Larry Yang Zi in a loose remake of Yau Nai-hoi’s Eye in the Sky (2007).
Chan plays Wong, a surveillance specialist brought out of retirement to assist the Macau police in apprehending an elite gang of hi-tech criminals.
