Jackie Chan Presents Gen-Y Cops
Jackie Chan Presents Gen-Y Copsis a typical Hong Kong mix of  action, comedy, and spectacular martial arts. The sequel toGen-X  Cops,Gen-Y Copsfollows three rebellious young policemen who  don't play by the rules--but you're not really sure they even know what  the rules are. The somewhat absurd story centers around a super-powered  military robot built for the FBI that gets hijacked by a nihilistic  computer hacker, who hypnotizes a young cop into giving him access to the  robot, forcing the other Gen-Y cops to arrest one of their own. The appeal  of these characters is a weird mix of James Dean cool and Jerry Lewis  slapstick--but the kung fu fights are high-energy and make up for the  so-so special effects. Also featuring American actor Paul Rudd  (Clueless,The Chateau) as an arrogant FBI agent.  (Warning: Jackie Chan does not appear in this movie.)--Bret  Fetzer
