Directed by Lo Wei, Killer Meteors is based on a serial by Gu Long, and marks one of Jackie Chans earliest roles -- namely, the villainous Hua-Wa Bin, one of the two men in the world well versed in a top-secret weapon. Led to believe that his own wife poisoned him, Hua-Wa Bin (Chan) hires Killer Meteor Mei Hsi-Ho (Wang Yu) to kill his wife and retrieve the antidote for the poison, despite the fact that Mei has always been his personal nemesis. Complications ensue when it turns out that Hua-Was wife is being guarded by a gang of some of the worlds most skilled warriors around. Not only that, but her elite bodyguards were armed with a mysterious weapon capable of vaporizing anyone who crossed their paths. Before long, Hua-Wa is forced to jump into the fray in hopes of saving his own precarious existence. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide
