Project A is a swashbuckling Jackie Chan action-comedy set among turn-of-the-century coast guards and pirates, famous for its death-defying stunts. The two-film series is quick to watch once you know the order.

Directed by and starring Jackie Chan, Project A pits a Hong Kong coast guard against ruthless pirates in a period adventure packed with elaborate brawls and jaw-dropping stunts, including Chan's iconic clock-tower fall. The film's success spawned a direct sequel that continued the swashbuckling fun.

πŸ• Release Order

Release order is straightforward, with the original followed a few years later by its sequel.

  1. Project A (1983)
  2. Project A Part II (1987)

The sequel continues the adventures of Chan's character Dragon Ma, so the chronological order matches the release order.

πŸ“– Story Chronology

Part II picks up after the original, making story chronology the same as the release sequence.

  1. Project A (1983)
  2. Project A Part II (1987)

Which Order Should You Choose?

Watch Project A first, then Project A Part II. The original is the stronger film and home to Chan's legendary clock-tower stunt, while the sequel delivers more inventive action and comedy. Since Part II continues the same character's story, starting with the 1983 original gives you the complete, high-flying adventure in the right order.
