Crime fighting has never been so hazardous--or funny. Chopsocky action star Jackie Chan reteams with motormouth Chris Tucker in this RUSH HOUR sequel as the mismatched cop duo investigate several bombings in Hong Kong attributed to Chinese gang leader Ricky Tan (John Lone) and an assassin (Zhang Ziyi), whose beautiful, balletic kick packs a head-ringing wallop. A fish out of water in exotic Hong Kong, Tucker talks his way into reams of trouble, saved time and again by Chan's frantic fighting. Though the two detectives are taken off the bombing case, unpaid debts between Chan and the criminals lead the detectives back to the U.S. and into the middle of an international counterfeiting racket that only Chan and Tucker can expose. Fans of the first RUSH HOUR can't miss this hilarious sequel, and buddy-cop movie aficionados will recognize the dazzling zingers slammed back and forth between Chan and Tucker as the true sign of a winning film.

"...[The] full orchestra action music works like an energy boost on the ears....Tucker is louder, more aggressive and funnier this time....Zhang, of course, owns the screen..."
"...Mr. Chan dances through some uproarious martial-arts battles....Mr. Chan and Mr. Tucker are always fun to watch. Mr. Tucker has an unusual comic talent..."
Chan & Tucker go again..... Another outing, another pairing, action, wit, jokes, silliness, seriousness all thrown in for good measure. Comedy is for all to watch, its better watching it in company, and people with a sense of humour and vision - saying that, just to even see 'Chan' execute perfect martial arts choreography and he chucks out a joke or 3 along with 'Tucker' being his funny foolish self! Bottom line, if you dont like black comics with a kinda street comedy humour, this will not be your cup of tea, if you're open minded, go watch Part 1 first, I promise you, its comedy at a very high level, again, Jackie Chan's not brilliant english, itself plays its part in knowing that he steps up a level in adding humour value along with his martial arts expertise. For me Tucker again is excellent, its action, again, to do with organised crime, searching them out, as this time Tucker goes to Hong Kong in Chan's territory - JUST GET IT FOR THE OUTTAKES, they are hilarious as with Part 1 also.

Those old enough to remember Milli Vanilli - the pop group stripped of a Grammy award after they admitted they did not sing on their own records - may be interested to hear that their story is to be made into a film. After being brought to the height of fame and back down again, the duo's tale is to be written by Jeff Nathanson, who penned Catch Me If You Can. And the movies may be more similar than meets the eye, as Catch Me If You Can told the real-life story of fraudster Frank Abagnale Jr,... Read more
