a5c7b9f00b A loyal and dedicated Hong Kong inspector teams up with a reckless and loudmouthed LAPD detective to rescue the Chinese Consul&#39;s kidnapped daughter, while trying to arrest a dangerous crime lord along the way. Cultures clash and tempers flaresthe two cops named Detective Inspector Lee a Hong Kong Detective and Detective James Carter FBI, a big-mouthed work-alone Los Angeles cop who are from different worlds discovers one thing in common: they can&#39;t stand each other. With time running out, they must join forces to catch the criminals and save the eleven-year-old Chinese girl of the Chinese consul named Soo Yung. What &quot;Rush Hour&quot; has best going for it, is the teaming of Chan and Tucker. Jackie Chan, Arguably the greatest Hong Kong Mega-Star, has a great on-screen rapport with Chris Tucker, and that makes this movie work. From start to finish, this movie had me laughing. I expected it to be funny, but not THAT funny. Jackie Chan really shines in this, I think mainly because he didn&#39;t have to carry the film by himself, which most of his Hong Kong movies seem to need. Chris Tucker is extremely well cast in this, and shows off his talent for fast-paced humor once again. All in all, this film is well worth going to see, especially if you are a fan of Action/Comedy. I give it four stars, and hope to see more movies like this in the future! Plot; A Chinese detective is paired w/an American counterpart in an effort to find the kidnapped daughter of a Chinese Consul. <br/><br/>Brings absolutely nothing new to the buddy cop genre, but Jackie Chan&#39;s acrobatics are always a treat and Chris Tucker is far less annoying than I remembered him being. The crime story here is lazily constructed, mostly an excuse for the give-and-take between Tucker and Chan, which is shrill and raucous without being especially clever.
