REVIEW: |
|
| |
Rush Hour NUMERO 3 . . . 9:30 to about noon-ish in most cities.
Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker are back for the third movie in the Rush Hour series in Rush Hour 3. They are reunited in New York City when the ruthless gang known at the Chinese Triad makes trouble. The chase of the Triad takes Chan and Tucker to Paris where it’s rumored that secrets of the Triad are kept. In true Rush Hour fashion, Tucker provides the humor and Chan provides the action. They make an unlikely team that now has to go deep into the underworld in Paris, at one point literally when they find themselves in the Paris sewer system, and seek the answers. In the process they must fight countless bad guys, save a pretty girl or two and if all goes well, not get killed.
The story is lame, the long fight scenes seem, well, long, and we have no idea how they spent $120 Million making Rush Hour 3. Still, it’s funny! It’s crazy Chris Tucker being crazy Chris Tucker, with aging action hero Jackie Chan as, of course, the perfect straight man for his comedy. The camaraderie between the two even makes it somewhat heartwarming, resulting in a rather enjoyable experience overall. |

MOVIE NIGHT TRAFFIC LIGHT: |
| |
On the Movie Night Traffic Light on a scale of GREEN meaning “Go – it’s a must see”, YELLOW meaning “Caution – it’s okay” and RED meaning “No - stop don’t do it."
We rate Rush Hour 3 GREEN. If humor is what you are looking for, this one is worth checking out. |
