    Rush Hour 3

    Reviewed by

    I wasn't sure what to rank this film, a 5/10 or a 6/10. I definitely cannot give it any higher than 6/10. Of the 3 Rush Hour movies, this one comes in a distant 3rd. It feels quickly put together. The fight scenes are overly choreographed, and it almost seems like there is reaction before action in most fight scenes. The fight sequences in Bourne Ultimatum are FAR superior. If you have seen the movie trailer for Rush Hour 3, then you have also seen most of the funnier jokes. That trailer was way too long, way too revealing, and the subsequent tv trailers reveal newer scenes. If you combine all those, you've pretty much seen all of the funnier parts. The story also seems quickly written, often ripping off from other movies (GodFather, Star Wars, James Bond...) As far as I know, this movie is not supposed to be a parody per say, but it is in more ways than one. Is it funny? Yes. Chris Tucker is his usual wacky self, but overdoes it more than once. Maybe the Chan and Tucker tandem is getting tired. Bourne Ultimatum proved that you can make a part 3 just as good if not better than its predecessors. But Rush Hour 3 seriously fails in that department. This may seem like a harsh review, but it's not just based on the movie trailers having revealed too much - I just don't think this is that good a movie. And for an action-comedy, it has a few lengthy lulls in it. Official running time is 91 minutes, but that includes all the credits, as the actual movie time feels more like just 75-80 minutes (even with the long lulls) I'm sure you'll go see it, and a lot of you may like it way more than I did. If so, good for you! After this one, I'm just hoping they don't do a part 4, unless it's done way better than this one.
