Who Am I? (我是谁?; pinyin: Wo3 Shi4 Shei2; Cantonese: Ngo Si Sui) is a movie directed by and starring Jackie Chan, released by Golden Harvest in 1998.
Plot
As a member of the special forces whose latest mission was to kidnap several scientists working on a highly volatile and secretive compound, Jackie is victim of a staged "incident" which results in the death of his colleagues and massive loss of memory. When asked by local aborigines for his name, he replies "Who am I?" which is then mistaken as his real name by the natives. Jackie proceeds to befriend several female characters, including Christine (Michelle Ferre) and Yuki (Mirai Yamamoto), all the while having insufficient flashbacks as to his true identity. As it turns out, the government is involved in illegal activities involving the exportation of contrabands, and Jackie is the only potential threat to their operations. Thus, agents are sent out to stop Jackie before he can expose their devious activities. Naturally, Jackie is able to defeat all hostile oncomers with both fluid effortlessness and style before finaling coming to terms with his own identity.
As with all Jackie Chan movies, he alledgedly performs all of his own stunt manuveurs. In Who Am I?, Jackie's most dangerous stunt was sliding off the steep incline of a building (seemingly without wires or harnesses).
