Rush Hour 3 (DVD)


Project2With the summer coming to an end and most of the huge summer blockbusters out of the way, I decided to stay home and catch up on films I’ve missed over the past few months. Rush Hour 3 was one of them. I had actually been looking forward to screening Rush Hour the past couple weeks but now that I’ve seen it, I’m glad I missed it in the box office. It was definitely the worst out of the three films and was filled with clichés and way too much soul singing.

Both Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker return as sidekicks in this film and that’s basically about as good as it gets. If you’ve seen the first two, then you’ve basically seen this one with a slightly different storyline and updated soundtrack. Basically you get the same racial jokes and alot more of Tucker’s totally annoying voice.

If you haven’t seen this film, I’d advise you not to waste your time. Its cheesy and overdone. Stick with the original Rush Hour which was definitely the funniest and most action packed of them all.

Synopsis:

Chris Tucker returns to the big screen after a six-year absence as he reunites with the all-star team of co-star Jackie Chan, director Brett Ratner , and writer Jeff Nathanson to deliver the third installment of the blockbuster Rush Hour franchise. Arriving in theaters on August 10, 2007, Rush Hour 3 sees the beloved action comedy duo of Tucker and Chan reprising their roles as LAPD Detective James Carter and Chinese Chief Inspector Lee respectively. This time around, the two must travel to Paris to battle a wing of the Chinese organized crime family, the Triads.

  1. Pretty much everyone I have talked to has said the same thing about the movie. I’ve been watching on average about 6 DVDs a month since school let out, and most have been either disappointing or just okay. The last DVD I watched that I actually felt was worth my time was Bucket List.

  2. @Polaris671 - I saw Bucket List on the plane to Seattle but it was hard to listen to everything. I was thinking of renting it and watching it over before writing my review. The same with Jumper!
