The Protector (1985) watch online

The Protector (Chinese: 威龍猛探; lit. 'Dragon Detective') is a 1985 buddy cop action film written and directed by James Glickenhaus. It stars Jackie Chan and Danny Aiello, along with Roy Chiao, Peter Yang, Moon Lee, and Bill Wallace. An international co-production between the United States and Hong Kong, this was Chan's second attempt at breaking into the American film market, after 1980’s The Big Brawl, which had moderate box office success but was considered a disappointment.

Conflicts between Glickenhaus and Chan during production led to two official versions of the film: Glickenhaus' original version for American audiences and a Hong Kong version re-shot and re-edited by Jackie Chan. The original Glickenhaus version was a box office failure in North America, while Chan's edited version was a moderate success in Asia; the film was also moderately successful in Europe.
