Review of Rush Hour (1998) by Mickaw90 . — 28 Feb 2010

Rush Hour its a basic buddy-movie but with a new dimensions what comes to action. One reason why this was so successfully that Jackie Chan`s and Chris Tucker`s chemistry worked a perfectly And off course both live certainly in different cultures. And they are complete different actors. Basic plot that`s kind of movies but who expeted more? This isn`t Oscar film so don`t take it seriously.

It`s kind of irony that Jackie is done these kind of movies since 80s but still his breaktrhought happened much later. Okay there are differences but concept is a same.

Action scenes were an typical Hollywood fighting those days "straight punchies and kickes" but a little bit humor. Overall Rush Hour is one of the action comedy movies. The cast isn`t A-list but worked a very well in this movie. If audience would forget that Chan`s English skills aren`t that good, his acting its a pretty good.

Sometimes its difficult to say about Chris Tucker. He is in same time a funny, annoying and good comedian actor but also seem that he play himself but it isn`t problem.
