** Creator/NewLineCinema, the American distributor of ''Film/PoliceStory4FirstStrike'', produced a second dub for release on video and television in 1998. This dub was very similar to the export dub, albeit with a remixed sound design and another new score, this time recorded by J. Peter Robinson, using much of his score from the aformentioned ''First Strike''. In this dub, and the two subsequent dubs, Jackie's Ka-kui character was simply referred to as [[TheDanza Jackie Chan]]

** Two more dubs would be produced in Hong Kong, starting with a dub produced by Media Asia Films in 1999 for release on home video, and as a basis for other dubs. Another dub would be produced by Fortune Star in 2004 using much of the same cast as the Media Asia dub in different roles; this dub also corrects several problems with the previous dub's script and was remixed into 5.1 surround sound. The 1999 dub would be released on DVD in the UK in 2001, while the 2004 dub was released on DVD by Creator/TheWeinsteinCompany sub-label Dragon Dynasty in the US in 2006 and later on Blu-ray by Creator/ShoutFactory.

* OnSetInjury: Creator/JackieChan slid down a pole that peeled the skin off his hands, leaving him with injuries similar to second-degree burns, then crashed through a glass ceiling and landed on his back, dislocating his pelvis and pushing his vertebrae into nearby organs causing internal bleeding. Chan claims it's one of the only times in his career when he's been afraid that injuries he sustained on set would kill him.

* DuelingDubs: The film is rather notorious for possessing a whopping four main dubs for a live action film:
** The first was prepared at the time of the film's release, and featured the original Michael Lai score, but only saw official release on an obscure Dutch PAL VHS until 2018. In this dub, Jackie's Ka-kui character is given an English name, "Kevin". Has a classic '80s HK cast, with voice actors like Matthew Oram (Inspector Wong), Barry Haigh (Sergeant Mao), John Culkin (Kevin), and Simon Broad (Cheung, the lawyer).
*** The version of this dub that saw wide release was a shortened export version, featuring the same dubbing, but a new, fully synth score recorded by Kevin Bassinson, and also shaved off about 12 minutes from the original Hong Kong cut, giving it a more action-oriented pace with fewer comedy scenes.
