My movie review

Here is my movie review for rush hour 3:

Rush Hour 3 Review Rated: pg-13

Funny, smart, and strait to the point is what makes this comedy crash all the others. Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker return in the sequel to their first two box topping hit movies in Rush Hour 3. This film takes place 2 years after Rush Hour 2 and both lee and carter reside in Los Angeles. Carter is no longer a cop, but a traffic officer while lee is the protector of the ambassador of china. While giving a speech at the world criminal court discussions an assasination attempt is made on the ambassadors life and the ambassador is fatally shot in the chest nearly missing his heart. while at the hospital the ambassadors daughter Soo Yung makes Lee and Carter promise they will find out who tried to shoot her father. Lee and Carter end up in Paris looking for a dangerous underground gang, known as the triad.

While the movie still features some of the creative content that made it famous, such as witty dialogue, slapstick comedy, and great action scenes it lacks some very important characteristics such as….. CREATIVITY!! Much of the humor and clever gags between Chan and Tucker seem to be greatly encouraged by the first two films. Don’t get me wrong it still is over all a great film, with most of the scenes taking place in Paris and great appearances by Academy award winning director Roman Palanski as a wacky cab driver, are just some of the great things that make Rush Hour 3 a must see hit.
