a5c7b9f00b 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. Realizing that the FBI and their by the book tactics may be unsuccessful, the Chinese consul recruits the aid of a loyal Hong Kong inspector to help rescue his kidnapped daughter. Outlawed by the FBI, the inspector must form an unlikely partnership with a cocky, street smart LAPD officer who prefers doing things his own way. RUSH HOUR is the most classic and impressive action comedy ever filmed. No question about it, Jackie Chan&#39;s impressive action stunts and Chris Tucker&#39;s smart-@ss attitude combine to make one of the most entertaining films of the decade. <br/><br/>But, there is a bad side to the legacy of this film, the horrid sequel RUSH HOUR 2 and then the soon-to-be trilogy, and all the many films that try to be just like this film. Example would be SHOWTIME. The film is highly entertaining and gives you some hard-core action sequences. The film is destined to keep everyone on the edge of their seat. Chris Penn, Philip Baker Hall, and Elizabeth Pena all deliver good performances. It is sure to entertain audiences for many years to come. Many of the jokes come offracial or too crude for the liking of many over-protective parents who also complain that Tucker swears too much. I, myself, am not bothered by this but there are many people out there who feel that a film of this nature should have not been made. I feel that it should have been made by all means. People have the right to express themselves. And some of them do so through this film. RUSH HOUR gets 5/5. I thought the movie itself was pretty much garbage - I don&#39;t think any kind of racism is acceptable, and this movie contains quite a bit - but I did enjoy the chemistry between Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. I think they are both great comedic actors and I hope Chan is not limited by his martial-arts background, because he was very funny when the moment called for it. The stunts are great but they make sense and don't blow the sense of reality of the whole movie.
