Based on the true kidnapping story of wealthy Hong Kong businessman Teddy Wang, 1993's (although shot in 1993, it wasn't released in the US until 1996) Crime Story was an attempt by Jackie Chan to expand his dramatic acting range.  Audiences, and Chan himself, were not completely happy with the results.  The film didn't make much of a box office impression and Chan resented director Kirk Wong for pushing the film to be darker.
