Product Description Bluray Disc
Amazon.com Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker head for the City of Lights in the somewhat threadbare but sporadically exciting Rush Hour 3, the second sequel to director Brett Ratner's 1998 cop-buddy hit. Chan's Inspector Lee and Tucker's Detective Carter hop from Los Angeles to Paris in pursuit of a Chinese triad only to find a mixed reception, including a brutal warning from a French cop (Roman Polanski) and anti-American sentiments from a cab driver (Yvan Attal) who eventually becomes an important and funny ally. Lee and Carter, when not fighting their way out of rooms full of martial arts gangsters and crazed assassins (Sun Ming Ming), follow a trail to a beautiful woman (Noemie Lenoird) who literally carries a vital clue on her person. Lee also holds secret meetings with a United Nations authority (Max Von Sydow), but his personal struggles with a criminal mastermind (Hiroyuki Sanada)--who happens to be an important figure in his lifeare at the heart of this movie. The aging Chan still seems to defy the laws of physics with some of his more spectacular stunts. But it's true those stunts take a little more time than they used to, and judicious editing makes Chan look spry as ever. He frets charmingly in Rush Hour 3, while Tucker revives his brash character's motormouth guile and whiny womanizing. There isn't a lot left to be discovered about Lee and Carter's compatibility, and even with a minor crisis over their loyalty to one another in Rush Hour 3, their all-important relationship is almost too easy to take for granted now. Fortunately, the film's biggest thrills come from several wild fight scenes, especially a climactic battle on the Eiffel Tower that is rich in imagination. --Tom Keogh

Here's hoping Chan retires & Tucker never works in movies or tv again. This is like a virus spreading moronism. Gaggghhh!
Rush Hour 3 == Third time's the Charm?? March 15, 2009 James "Scotman" April (Bakersfield, CA) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Well darn it, I never saw the first two, but loved the previews so wanted to check it out. The DVD has both widescreen and fullscreen capabilities, but the "special features" are nothing to be excited about, previews and trailers. Rush Hour 3 had some funny moments, starting with Chris Tucker directing traffic with Prince in his ears. The sight jokes (girls butts on a car) and the fall-down gags got old after awhile. Thin plot, some reality stretching and some characters left unexplained (the woman assassin was never explained and her demise was not missed, played by Sun Ming Ming.). Favorites: "You're not my brother?" -- to the tune of "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word". "My name is you. No not me. I'm me. Who's you? I'm you." If you are familiar with Abbott and Costello's Who's on First, you're older than me! Jackie's character knows he has an evil brother, who he tries to save even as his brother tries to kill him anyway. Amazing. And Jackie loses nearly every fight scene and runs away. Disappointing. Mildly political, saying Americans only kill. Hmmm.... Sexy Noemie Lenoir as Genevieve. Rental!
2.5 stars out of 4 March 1, 2009 One-Line Film Reviews (Ann Arbor) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Bottom Line: Pretty much the definition of a mediocre film, Rush Hour 3 accomplishes what it sets out to do with just enough humor to make it watchable; one of those movies that you'd be happy to sit through on an airplane, it's not worth spending money on but you could do worse.
I love Jackie Chan February 17, 2009 Faith Millington (Houston.,TX) This is another good movie in the series. I watch it many times. Jackie is so cute and funny. Chris Tucker is too. But my heart is with Jackie as I have many of his movies and like them all. Faith M.
