Summary: THE FUNNIEST MOVIE EVER
Review: RUSH HOUR IS THE FUNNIEST MOVIE EVER.JACKIE CHAN AND CHRIS TUCKER ARE THE BEST TEAM EVER.THIS MOVIE DOESN'T HAVE MUCH BAD THINGS IN IT BUT IT IS DAMN FUNNY.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than your average Jackie Chan movie
Review: "Rush Hour" turned out to be a lot better than I was expecting it to be. A Japanese diplomat's daughter is kidnapped and it's up to an investigator (Jackie Chan) and a cop (Chris Tucker) to get her back. Chris Tucker is instructed by the FBI to stay away and to keep Jackie Chan away while the FBI investigates and tries to get the girl back. But neither one can keep from trying to find the girl and get her back themself. Chan and Tucker become friends and team up to go on the mission.

Like you might expect, "Rush Hour" has tons of awesome fighting scenes. But what makes it better than your average Jackie Chan movie is that it has more comedy involved. Chan and Tucker are great together in this movie and a lot of the parts are hilarious.

If you like either fighting or comedy movies, you gotta give "Rush Hour" a chance.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Same old stuff for Jacky Chen
Review: For those who are facinated by Jacky Chen's incredable stunts, well, here is a rude awakening. He's been doing that for more than 20 years, and as a person growing up with Hong Kong Kong- Fu movies, I can attest that most of his moves, his stunts, even the facial expressions, the innocent looks from Rush Hour are deja-vus from his earlier Chinese movies. The only difference is that Jacky in the 90s is much older,, and he did all his stunts while he was still young

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This Movie Was Magnifacient!
Review: This is the best Action/Comedy I have seen in a while. ChrisTucker played an excellent role as Detective Carter N.Y.P.D. So did Jackie Chan. This movie is a non-stop action packed film. I would suggest that you consider watching this film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: excellent film
Review: I watched this film more than 10 times and I really enjoy the action & fun of the two heros,Tucker and Chan.I think that all the events & action in the film are in the top.When I saw it in the first time ,I search for other films for tucker to see.He has really a great talent more than any of Hollywood heros.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Above-the average action, sub-average storyline
Review: Although Jackie Chan recieves top-billing, this film is actually a vehicle for the sassy, brassy, foul-mouthed Chris Tucker -- "the new Eddie Murphy". Jackie Chan is deprived of the opportunity to display his martial arts in as many spectacular fights as he would in the Hong Kong films. The action scenes are of no comparison to his Hong Kong blockbusters, such as "First Strike", "Supercop" and "Police Story". He even doesn't get the chance to do stunts with the same style and scale of the Hong Kong films. This is a case of how some international styles and genres suffer on their transfer to Hollywood. Even the plot is a tired and derivative rehash of the most shop-worn wares of Hollwood "buddy-buddy" action films from the last two decades'(e.g. "Tango and Cash" and the "Lethal Weapon" franchise.) But the film compensates with the brilliant chemistry between the leads and the very, very funny moments they share together.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Brilliant!
Review: I thought Jet Li was incredible in this film, but was dissapointed by Chris Rock. He looked different than usual. Actually, now that I think about it, so did Jet Li. He looked older, and he didn't do as much cool stuff. Well, it was still pretty cool, and Jet Li is one funny guy, I know that now!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great comedy/action film
Review: This is an excellent film. I'm not sure whether it's primarily a comedy or an action picture; there's plenty of both. There's enough going on to induce video-game-English-syndrome, in which you tensely twist your body this way and that as you watch. :-) Chan and Tucker work well together and seem to enjoy doing so, which helps. I forget whether I first saw this in the theatre or on video, but I think highly enough of it that I bought it. Your mileage may vary, but you'll probably enjoy it quite a lot -- I recommend at least checking it out at the rental store.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This one was good.
Review: Actually this one was very good. When I first watched it I was on the edge of my seat almost all the time. Not to mention that it is very funny. I'd watch this one on a Friday night. I like it a lot.So don't miss out 'cause I think you'll like it too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie!
Review: This movie is hella funny! Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker make a great combination! This is about as funny as Friday with less swearing! Everybody needs to see this!
