【Synopsis】The younger brother (Jackie Chan) is obsessed with sailing, but in order to take care of the mentally handicapped brother (Hong Jinbao), it is inconvenient to stay away, so he becomes a policeman.

At that time, Jackie Chan and his brother Hong Jinbao were in the middle of the day, starring in the kung fu comedy department, and the confidence was bursting, and it was inevitable that he would intentionally transform and try literary and artistic production. Just at this time, Hong Jinbao found that the tragedy of the family relationship between the dumb father and the adopted daughter produced by "New Art City" swept Hong Kong and Taiwan and won the praise, so he was inspired to start filming this drama film "Dragon's Heart" about the mentally handicapped brother and the police brother's dependence, and then found Su Rui, who became famous for singing behind the scenes of "Hitch a Ride", and as a result, after the release of the film, the box office received 20 million, ranking fourth in the year, and received four nominations at the Hong Kong Academy Awards, and finally won the Best Film Song Award.

On the whole, "Dragon's Heart" is actually not out of jackie chan, Hong Jinbao's historical action film routine, Jackie Chan is still a policeman, the main plot line is still brave to break the crime syndicate, although the film's important action scenes are only the opening and ending two, but the hard bridge is hard, fierce, and the excitement is not lost to any of the "Seven Little Fortunes" film, which was nominated for the best action director at the Hong Kong Academy Awards.

However, "The Heart of the Dragon" is different from other works of Jackie Chan or Hong Jinbao at that time, the film uses a large number of pages to render the "police brother" Jackie Chan's care and affection for the "mentally handicapped brother" Hong Jinbao, although the technique is sensational and popular, but the choreographer rarely does not shape the younger brother into a "saint" who can have no complaints and no regrets, but pays attention to depicting Jackie Chan as an ordinary person. Don't you know that there is a saying that there is no filial piety in front of the bed for a long time, and the younger brother who has taken care of the mentally handicapped brother for a long time will inevitably suffer from mental torture and emotional fatigue, which is very reasonable for him to think of leaving, and finally he still has to take care of the heavy responsibility, which is also very reasonable. Jackie Chan's emotional performance further enhanced the realism of the role of "younger brother", and it is well deserved to be nominated for best actor at the Hong Kong Academy Awards. In contrast, although Hong Jinbao, who played the "brother", speculated on the physical appearance of the "mentally handicapped person" quite impressively, it was unfortunately overshadowed by Zheng Zeshi, who won the Hong Kong Academy Awards for his "fat cat" role in "Why Me" in the same year.
