I purchased Rush Hour on DVD in August 2001 and since i first watche it and burst out laughing at the two of them (Jackie & Chris) arguing. They are so hilarious.
The one part of the DVD I was not impressed with was that there were no subtitles for the foreign parts on my DVD, like when Consul.
Then since I saw Rush Hour 2 being advertised for the cinemas, I decided straight away to buy that too when it is released on DVD which will be in December 2001.
So, the two funniest guys are back for take 2 of their greatest film. Will it be another hit with me, I hope so...

I think you should have mentioned a bit about Jackie Chan's acrobatics as this is often what people want to see from him in a film. And also a touch more info on the plot, pace, look and so on. I do like your listing of global ratings but I didn't get much insight to your personal thoughts, other than that you liked it. I liked it too, but don't expect such good things from Rush Hour II (I thought that was duff) ;') Fx
