| Rush Hour 2 Review |
| by Karina Montgomery |
| How ironic that the very companion who ribs me about over-using this
rating was my companion for this film? But it's true - this film is
rock-em sock-em enough, funny enough, and interesting enough
(plotwise) to earn my penultimate rating, basically...more |

| I guess it's a credit to Jackie Chan and the general
likeability of the franchise that Rush Hour 2 could
not be ruined even by the nauseating "comedy" of Chris
Tucker. I'm a fan of Jackie Chan in just about any
medium, and this movie lets him not only do...more |

| The formula is the same, except that there's more action from Jackie
Chan who never seems to grow old, and more loud mouthing from Chris
Tucker who never seems to shut up. The racial jokes are reversed (this
time, Chan gets to say "never touch a...more |

| What has fueled the excitement around "RH2"?
Arguably, the team of Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan is
the best cop/buddy combo since those guys from "Lethal
Weapon." Summer moviegoers are looking for a fun
time, which is almost guaranteed when you watch...more |

| _Rush_Hour_2_ is a textbook case of commerce over art, of retreading
over reinvention. Yet there is something to be said about having a second try
at something that didn't quite work the time out, for derivative and disposable
as it is, this...more |

Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) hosting his LAPD buddy James Carter's (Chris
Tucker) vacation while trying to break a counterfeiting ring that's just

| The problem with movies like RUSH HOUR 2 that give away almost all of the good
jokes in the trailers is that seeing the movie itself is about as much fun as
watching reruns. In RUSH HOUR 2, this problem is further compounded by the lack
of freshness in...more |

| In 1998, director Brett Ratner and his stars, Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker,
breathed new life into the buddy-action film genre with the cross-cultural
"Rush Hour" - to the tune of about $250 million. You don't mess with
success, so the team is back...more |

more than $250 million worldwide. Through its central characters,
