Yes,there's a hell of a lot of deserving movies not on the list,sequels and such,but you get so many entries per poll.Should have two "other" options on the list.
Police Story was the first Jackie Chan movie I saw,which I saw long before before most Americans saw Rumble In The Bronx,Chan's breakthrough in the USA.I try not to be smug about that.Police Story may not be b]the[/b] best Jackie Chan film,but it's a sentimental favorite.

In my teen years, I was a dedicated martial arts film fanatics and was obsessed with Jackie Chan movies.
To me, he remains by a wide margin the best fight choreographer and as far as raw athletic ability goes, he's rivaled only by Tony Jaa among the big stars (sure, guys like Yuen Biao might be more athletic, but I don't think of him as a big star -- not in America, anyway).
I went with Police Story (I prefer the other US title 'Police Force' since it sounds more 'action movie')... it's where Chan perfected his contemporary martial arts movie style and some of the stunts are among his best. The mall fight is the absolute best "Chan versus a gang" fight he's ever done for raw spectacle ("Drunken Master II" is the king for one-on-one fights, all due respect to Benny "The Jet" Urquidez).

And no mention of Mr. Nice Guy? It wasn't that bad. I actually went and milled around and watched them film bits of that (it was shot in Melbourne).

Police Story. I've been a fan of Jackie Chan as an athlete and comic actor, but his movies really aren't my cup of tea. But the set pieces in Police Story are the best.
