The plotline may sound familiar: Two mismatched cops are assigned as reluctant partners to solve a crime. Culturally they are complete opposites, and they quickly realize they can't stand each other. One (Jackie Chan) believes in doing things by the book. He is a man with integrity and nerves of steel. The other (Chris Tucker) is an amiable rebel who can't stand authority figures. He's a man who has to do everything on his own, much to the displeasure of his superior officer, who in turn thinks this cop is a loose cannon but tolerates him because he gets the job done. Directed by Brett Ratner, Rush Hour doesn't break any new ground in terms of story, stunts, or direction. It rehashes just about every "buddy" movie ever made--in fact, it makes films such as Tango and Cash seem utterly original and clever by comparison. So, why did this uninspired movie make over $120 million at the box office? Was the whole world suffering from temporary insanity? Hardly. The explanation for the success of Rush Hour is quite simple: chemistry. The casting of veteran action maestro Jackie Chan with the charming and often hilarious Chris Tucker was a serendipitous stroke of genius. Fans of Jackie Chan may be slightly disappointed by the lack of action set pieces that emphasize his kung-fu craft. On the other hand, those who know the history of this seasoned Hong Kong actor will be able to appreciate that Rush Hour was the mainstream breakthrough that Chan had deserved for years. Coupled with the charismatic scene-stealer Tucker, Chan gets to flex his comic muscles to great effect. From their first scenes together to the trademark Chan outtakes during the end credits, their ability to play off of one another is a joy to behold, and this mischievous interaction is what saves the film from slipping into the depths of pitiful mediocrity. --Jeremy Storey

 Rush Hour December 24, 2008
I was very pleased with Movie it was action packed on top of extremely funny
 Fun & Entertaining May 14, 2008
Rush Hour is one of those movies I could watch over and over again and enjoy it each and every single time. The chemistry between Chan and Tucker is superb (Lethal Weapon-quality) and even though the plot is a bit trite, the overall movement and fun of the film keeps it going. An easy 5 stars for me.
Classic Fun! March 27, 2008
I love this movie, and ever since I last saw it in VHS I wanted to have it in a better quality. This was the right choice. I really like it, and I can't stop having fun every time I see it. I don't get tired of it. For me, it's a classic movie with lots of action and lots of fun.
I really recommend this movie for any Jackie fan!
Chan and Tucker make a great odd couple team March 2, 2008
this is a pretty good movie.it's an action adventure comedy.there is a
lot of action and the movie is fast paced.there isn't a lot of
comedy,but comedy bits there are,are pretty funny.Jackie Chan's
acrobatic,over the top cartoonish martial arts moves are funny.Chris
Tucker's motor mouth character is pretty funny at times.also the
teaming of Chan and Tucker is a great idea.they work well off each
other.one could not be more opposite from the other.i liked their back
and forth banter.the other thing i like about this movie is that even
though there is some violence,it's not excessive,and there is a bit of
coarse language,but not very much.for me,Rush Hour is a 3.5/5
Classic Buddy Cop Film! February 27, 2008

The original "Rush Hour" remains one of my favorite movies of all time. Jackie and Chris have great on screen chemistry, and the fights are absolutely classic. The film also has fantastic stunts, a wonderful plot, and a great score by Lalo Schifrin. If you love Jackie, and want to see one of his best american films, look no further.
"War, huh. What is it good for, absolutely no-thing!"
