Who Am I? (1998), co-directed by Jackie Chan and Benny Chan, is a high-energy martial arts action film featuring Chan at his physical peak. The story follows a special forces operative (played by Jackie Chan) who survives a helicopter crash in the South African wilderness during a secret mission to retrieve a powerful energy weapon.
Suffering from amnesia, he’s taken in by a local tribe who call him “Who Am I?”—the only words he can speak. As his memory slowly returns, he embarks on a globe-trotting quest to uncover his true identity and the betrayal behind the mission. Along the way, he’s pursued by corrupt government agents and mercenaries determined to silence him.
Blending intense martial arts, comedic moments, and breathtaking stunts—including a famous rooftop slide scene in Rotterdam—Who Am I? showcases Chan’s signature mix of action and humor. The film emphasizes individual resilience, loyalty, and the struggle to uncover truth in a world of deception.
