Review of Rush Hour (1941) by Stefan G — 27 Aug 2014
Rush Hour is honestly a very entertaining movie, even if it's not as clever as other movies. The plot isn't exactly clever, but I can forgive it because action movies rarely have clever storylines.
Besides, the characters are really entertaining, with Chris Tucker's comical one-liners and Jackie Chan's skill as an action movie star coming together to make an effective duo. On another note, the script is actually quite funny, but the movie itself maintains a fine balance between seriousness and humour.
The film has a really good sense of style, but in this kind of movie, the most important thing is the action, and the action scenes are very well choreographed. There are a lot of these scenes in this movie, and these scenes are done so well that it doesn't get old.
It may not be as serious as other cop movies, but it's pure entertainment, and that's satisfying by itself.
