Jackie Chan is generally known for playing underdog heroes, but his 1992 action-comedy Twin Dragons enabled him to do something different.

Jackie Chan's 1992 action-comedy Twin Dragons broke a long-standing trend of his on-screen persona in a big way. Directed by Ringo Lam and Tsui Hark, Twin Dragons stars Chan as identical twin brothers Boomer and John Ma, who were separated at birth. When John returns to Hong Kong to perform a live concert as conductor, he and Boomer cross paths and find themselves in a battle against a ruthless Hong Kong crime boss.

John Ma, by contrast, is the complete opposite, a cultured and well-renown conductor completely lacking in any fighting skills.
