Plot Summary
It's vacation time for Det. James Carter (Chris Tucker "Jackie Brown," "The Fifth Element") and he finds himself alongside Det. Lee (Jackie Chan "The Forbidden Kingdom," "Shanghai Noon") in Hong Kong wishing for more excitement. While Carter wants to party and meet the ladies, Lee is out to track down a Triad gang lord who may be responsible for killing two men at the American Embassy. Things get complicated as the pair stumble onto a counterfeiting plot by L.A. crime boss Steven Reign (Alan King "Casino," "Second Final Warning") and Triad Ricky Tan (Golden Globe nominee John Lone "The Last Emperor," "Year of the Dragon"), an ex-cop who played a mysterious part in the death of Det. Lee's father. Throw in a power struggle between Tan and the gorgeous but dangerous Hu Li (Golden Globe nominee Ziyi Zhang "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," "Hero") and the boys are soon up to their necks in fist fights and life threatening situations.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: The whole film plays like an outtake, and that I do mean as a compliment.
Rotten: The film seems content to rely on the formula that could (small sigh) extend for a few more sequels.
Fresh: While the rest of it isn't really any good, it's certainly no chore to watch.
Rotten: How can a movie allow [Tucker] to be so obnoxious and make no acknowledgment that his behavior is aberrant?
Customer Reviews
Where are Rush Hour and Rush Hour 3?
I love these movies. Where are Rush Hour and Rush Hour 3? I-Tunes really gets it all wrong by not providing the whole series of movies for us. I am thinking of going to another format of portable movie viewing (HINT HINT) to be able to see the movies I want. I have over 90 movies and loads of music videos of all genres downladed from I-Tunes, but we all know there are LOADS more available in other formats on other portable machines now.
FINALLY
All I can say is thank you ITunes. I love this movie. Hope you put up the other 2.
Great movie
This is a great and hilarious movie, but why doesn't itunes have number 1 or 3? Anyway the movie is great!! Definitely five stars!!!!!!!
