A Jackie's Chan movie. Expect a mix between action and comedy, add Chris's Carter character, and you'll have a movie that you'll always laugh at no matter how many times you have seen it before. The whole three parts of it are worth watching.

Maybe the most overrated buddy cop movie of all time. _Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._

OK, heavy bias here, but I'm just going to come out and say that Chan and Tucker should have stopped after this one. Rush Hour was funny, Rush Hour 2 and especially 3 where horrible. Really it's like Lethal Weapon, or, in fact, it's like just about any buddy cop movie where the duo is salt and pepper and entirely mismatched. And those movies are usually always fun in any action or comedy genre... except when it comes to the ones with the dogs. So you have the chemistry with a solid cultural and language barrier ala Red Heat. The difference is that this amps up the comedy to, honestly, to a point that is utterly hysterical. Especially given the clear chemistry between Chan and Tucker. The timing is great and the out takes are even better. It's a hysterical pleasure to watch... ... just stay away from the sequels because, honestly, I don't know what happened there.
