''Who Am I?'' is a UsefulNotes/HongKong action comedy film produced by Golden Harvest and released in January 10th, 1998. It was Written, Co-Directed (with Benny Chan), [[AndStarring And Starring]] Creator/JackieChan. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking He also provides the vocals for the Ending Song.]]
A multinational Special Forces Team is assigned to ambush a group of scientists deep in South Africa, who have just discovered a meteorite that is highly volatile ([[MadeOfExplodium as seen in the opening prologue]]). Then the team is double-crossed by their higher-ups who want to use the meteor for purposes [[JustThinkOfThePotential less than noble.]] All of the operatives soon [[MakeItLookLikeAnAccident disappeared in an accident]]...well, except one.
The lone survivor operative (Jackie Chan) wakes up somewhere in the hut of a tribe, [[IdentityAmnesia but he can't remember who he is.]] The members of the tribe decide to call him "Who Am I?" after he asks just that. After spending weeks recovering from his injuries, he spots a nearby rally competition, so he decides to return to civilization to embark in a QuestForIdentity. After saving the life of the brother of a racer (Mirai Yamamoto) from the competition, "Who Am I?" is soon pursued by multiple parties including the higher-ups (who fear that HeKnowsTooMuch), the CIA, and a [[IntrepidReporter female reporter]] (Michelle Ferre) who wants to know all about "Who Am I?".
[[TheOneWith Yes, this is the movie where Jackie Chan slides down a building almost to the ground, without any safety harness!]]
[[SimilarlyNamedWorks Not to be confused with the]] [[Film/WhoAmI 2014 German film of the same name.]]

!!''Who Am I?'' provides examples of the following tropes:
* AgonyOfTheFeet: During the [[UsefulNotes/TheNetherlands Rotterdam]] pursuit after losing his shoes, a crook keeps kicking and stomping on poor "Who Am I?"'s feet. [[CurbStompBattle Until he gets some wooden clogs, which he happily uses to return the favor.]]
** After a long fight between "Who Am I?" and [[spoiler:Morgan's]] Taekwondo hitman (played by Taekwondo expert Ron Smoorenburg in his film debut), both of them try to recover afterwards, their feet clearly wasted for a while.
* DirtyCop: The agency that "Who Am I?" and his teammates were working from before the "Accident". [[spoiler:Morgan also counts, having been on the plan from the beginning to sell the explosive meteorite to an arms dealer.]]
* DrivesLikeCrazy: "Who Am I?" drives Yuki's rally car like this across the savanna trying to get Yuki's brother to get medical attention. Later, Yuki drives her rally car upon the streets of Johannesburg to escape "Who Am I?"'s pursuers.
* ImprovisedWeapon: Being a Jackie Chan film, maybe you shouldn't lure him to a commercial district or a construction section on a rooftop.
** Also, wearing expensive designer suits and large earrings for combat ''is a bad idea''.
* JustThinkOfThePotential: The abducted scientists keep working not only because of the threats to them [[AndYourLittleDogToo and their families]], but because the meteorite could give humanity a great source of clean energy. Unfortunately for them, their captors plan to use it to instead create MoreDakka and similar mass destruction weapons.
* MacGuffin: [[spoiler: For the second half of the film, is the disk containing all the information about]] the meteorite and its properties, which also makes it a MineralMacGuffin.
* SayMyName: In a sense, see below.
* SkywardScream: After "Who Am I?" escapes with Christine and Yuki, he loses his temper after Yuki scares him again, [[LargeHam leading to this moment]]:
--->'''Who Am I?''': WHO AM IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII?
* UndercoverCopReveal: [[spoiler: Christine reveals she's an undercover CIA Agent to "Who Am I?", but only after he discovered the gun disguised as a camera in Christine's purse, soon after Morgan's hitmen are closing by. "Who Am I?" then accuses Christine [[LuredIntoATrap of luring him into a trap.]]]]
