Rush Hour 3 is a great movie with a well developed storyline and a terrific comedic cast.The movie certainly isn't as good as the first two Rush Hours but still a very funny film and of course action packed.Like the previous two,Chris Tucker is without a doubt the highlight,it is very rare in all three movies when a scene where he does most of the taking isn't hilarious,the scene with the nun communicating French to Tuckers character had me in stitches and is without a doubt one of my favourite scenes of all three movies.Rush Hour 3 is a great movie that I would recommend to anyone looking for a good comedy or action,and fans of the first two Rush Hours will most likely enjoy. The two mismatched policemen must hunt down Triad gangsters in Paris who are attempting to kidnap a French woman.Best Performance: Chris Tucker

The third outing of Jackie Chan as Chief Inspector Lee and Chris Tucker as Detective James Carter disappoints. Here, after an assassination attempt on Ambassador Han (Tzi Ma), Lee and Carter head to Paris to protect a French woman with knowledge of the Triads' secret leaders, where its Chinese criminal mastermind named Kenji (Hiroyuki Sanada) is revealed to be Lee's long-lost brother.There are some exciting action, but the movie somehow lacks the charm and substance of the first two films. Aside from Chan and Tucker, the cast members weren't very memorable, and the story is boring. Although the actress that plays Yoo-Sung did a good job, I would have liked to see the original actress from the first Rush Hour movie to portray her. And, Ambassador Han's character was not emphasized enough in the movie.If you haven't seen this movie, there is no rush to see it.Grade D-

I am quite a fan of Jackie Chan movies – when they were made in Hong Kong during what I considered the golden age of Hong Kong cinema. However his Hollywood movies just do not seem to have the same class about them as his Hong Kong movies did. Further, as can be expected with most Hollywood sequels the quality of the films degenerate significantly, and it is no different with this film. It did have its laughs, and with the exception of Chris Rock's character, it wasn't that painful to watch, but it still does not deserve a very high rating.The basic premise is that Jackie Chan is a cop from Hong Kong and Chris Rock is an LA police officer. Chan has returned to America with the Chinese Ambassador for a conference at the world court, but the Triad want to put an end to this, so they attempt, and fail, to assassinate the Chinese ambassador. Thus Chan and Rock team up again (much to Chan's horror) to attempt to locate the head of the triad and bring the criminal organisation to an end. Throughout the film Chan and Rock attempt to come to terms with a rather, unique, friendship. Rock is very keen to be Chan's friend, while Chan (much like myself) finds Rock to be incredibly annoying.While I would recommend that one not really waste one's time with this film, I still don't feel too comfortable in revealing too much of the plot, namely because there is not all that much depth in the plot to discuss, so, without further adieu, I'll finish the review.

Ah look, as you have most likely heard by now, this is not as good as the first two films and it's just a little bit tired in formula. However, it's still a bunch of fun if you already buy into the fastest mouth/fastest hands pairing of Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. The plot is incidental, thus simple, and the emphasis here is more on fun than electrifying action. Though the finale here is edge of the seat exciting and laugh inducing in equal measure. There's some truly good one liners thrown out and the chemistry between the two actors is still very much evident.Undemanding it is for sure, even disposable if it was to be judged as a single action/comedy entry, but it closes the trilogy down safe enough and the smile should rarely leave your face upon viewing. 6.5/10
