Review of Rush Hour DVD by wildberry

Advantages: Great Film, great laugh!
Disadvantages: Hmmmm...none as yet..

...out last weekend to see Rush Hour 2, having seen Rush Hour in the cinemas and thoroughly enjoyed it, we decided to see Rush Hour 2 which was a great film too. Anyway, I decided to revisit the first film in its DVD form. Ahhh I bet you thought I was going to about Rush Hour 2 in the wrong category eh? This is my first review and I decided to look around the site reviewing others before I wrote my first review, and I saw that reviews in the wrong ...
...~~~~The Movie~~~~ Rush Hour stars the afore mentionned Jackie Chan, as Detective Inspector Li, a Hong Kong police officer and Chris Tucker, who plays Detective James Carter. Li comes to America after his good friend’s daughter is kidnapped, Chris Tucker is hired by the FBI to keeping Chan away from the case. As the chalk meets the cheese it is obvious we are in for one truly enjoyable ride. Carter and Li are then forced to battle a whole organization ... Read review

Chan and Tucker go together like Action and Comedy
Review of Rush Hour DVD by elspeth334

Advantages: Great action, acting and plot
Disadvantages: None

...go because it combines a unique blend of humour and action. It genuinely is funny too unlike some comedies. Give it a go because I know you won’t regret it. Once you have seen this I recommend Rush Hour 2 also, as it is just as good if not better. ... Read review

Get Carter
Review of Rush Hour DVD by JVL

Advantages: Good action, easy viewing
Disadvantages: Formulaic

‘Rush Hour’ is an amusing diversion but not really much more, based on a formula that has been tried and tested in several police/comedy films down the years, probably most notably in the 1980s Schwarzenegger star vehicle ‘Red Heat’. The main theme of both films is remarkably similar – a policeman from a Communist country is sent to investigate a crime in the USA, he is paired with something of a renegade cop and encounters ...
...to the fore in a lasting partnership that transcends political and cultural boundaries. The plot of the film is not a straight rip-off of ‘Red Heat’ – times have changed and it is probably a safe bet that the producers were not allowed to portray the shiny, new China as some sort of Communist ogre for fear of damaging the burgeoning trade links between the Peoples’ Republic and the United States. The film touches on the return ... Read review

Do You Understand The Words Comin' Outta My Mouth
Review of Rush Hour DVD by TheNeil

Advantages: Different
Disadvantages: Hmmm

...comes to a film like Rush Hour I immediate feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. Excitement? Anticipation? Hardly - more like fear. The elements are all wrong and if ever a movie screamed 'waste of time', this is it. So we can ignore it and carry on watching 'decent' films (such as The Cannonball Run or anything with Sylvia Stallone in it) (apologies, I seem to have been momentarily possessed by the spirit of my own brother just then). ...
...it's easy to see that Rush Hour contains many, many cliche's - the earned respect, the brash US detective and the quiet Asian detective. Yawn, yawn, yawn, we've seen it all before. Now if a film ever sounded as though it was going to be a straight to video movie then this surely must be it. Hell, it's even got Jackie Chan in it, and we all know how niche-y his films tend to be. Do we detect some snobbery here or is there an almighty 'BUT' coming? ... Read review

BRING ON RUSH HOUR 2
Review of Rush Hour DVD by emu128

Advantages: Funny and fab action
Disadvantages: Nothing at all

...going on about the brilliant Rush Hour 2 at the moment, well I haven't seen Rush Hour 2 (YET!!) And until the other day I hadn't seen Rush Hour either! I'd heard of Rush Hour, it sounded a pretty good action movie, but I'd never actually got round to seeing it! A few days back now I watched it on Digital and I was very impressed, can't wait to see the second one now! Here is my review on the film itself... PLOT The film starts with the introduction ...
...you haven't already seen Rush Hour, then I highly suggest that you do! It's worth a watch and will entertain you highly! You can buy and rent the film on both VHS and DVD. The film is also on digital movie channels on a regular basis. Thanks and cheers. ~M~ ... Read review

Review of Rush Hour 3 DVD by  utero

Advantages: It's a brief 80-minutes, Chan is great
Disadvantages: Tucker is more annoying than ever, thin tired plot

...of spend. Ratner does his usual solid but uninspiring direction yet he seems to be under the illusion that his name carries some weight with an audience, well Mr Ratner you are not a Scorcese or a Spielberg, once you've made something of note then may be you can have your name in big letters on the poster and have voice over man announce your name on the trailer. But until then lacklustre efforts such as this and your take on X-Men simply don't cut the mustard. This franchise should now be closed because when you even struggle to fill 80-minutes of screentime then you know the game is up. - The DVD - Rush Hour 3 is shown in widescreen and gives you a nice crisp picture throughout. The film also has some good moments that utilize the surround sound of a home cinema, it's not one to show off the home cinema but you get ample blast... Read review

Rush Hour 3
Review of Rush Hour 3 DVD by  grendalion

Advantages: Great action comedy, Fun for all ages,
Disadvantages: Had to wait six years for the film!, Last in the Rush hour films

...--------MY THOUGHTS------ This is the third and final film in the rush our trilogy, i personally have been to see the film twice at the cinema. I think that it is a great action comedy, and the duo of chris tucker and jackie chan excels to a new level of funny. This was a long awaited film as there was a 6 year gap in between rush hour 2 and rush hour 3! I certainly couldnt wait to see this film and as soon as it came out me and my friends was down there faster than you could say rush hour. -------THE FILM------ Rush hour 3 is based three years after rush hour 2. The film starts off in america with James Carter (chris tucker) directing traffic as a police officer and Li (Jackie chan) being a personal body guard to ambassador Han who most fans will know as the council from rush hour 1. As the film progresses they go to Paris... Read review

Rush Hour 3 No Change though
Review of Rush Hour 3 DVD by  S3Matt

Advantages: Funny, Good Fight scenes
Disadvantages: Same as other 2 films, Tucker can get anoying

...Rush Hour 3 This is the 3rd incarnation of the series of films staring Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. If you have not seen one of the other 2 films before then it not much of a big deal as you can still watch this film without any confusion because of it relating to previous films. If you have watched one or both of the Other Rush Hour films then this is pretty much the same deal with Chris Tucker as LAPD Detective inspector James Carter and Jackie Chan as Chinese Inspector Lee. The Film starts of with filling you in on the situations of the two main characters of the film Carter and Lee, Lee being a bodyguard to the Chinese Ambassador to the US in New York and Carter reduced to Traffic duties on the streets of New York. When there is an Assassination attempt on the Chinese ambassador by the Triads just before he releases vital... Read review
