Rush Hour 3 : More of the Same

The fish-out-of-water pair is at it again. First it was Lee beahaving like a lost grouper out of water in New York. Then it was Carter's turn to be a clown fish in Hong-Kong and finally we have both of them like baramundi in Paris. The scenes are fast, thanks to good film editing. Chan is a wee bit slow, age showing and motor-mouth Chris Tucker continues to be as funny but losing some shine.

The story is as silly as silly films go with the plot as weak as temple congee. Funny parts, there are a few; the best being the bashing these two cops got at the hands of a gargantuan Chinese kungfu pugilist. And yes, one embarrassing part when Chan came swinging in a French night club singing as if he was Nicole Kidman's Satine in Moulin Rouge. Chris Tucker sounds better in his sing and dance act with pretty Lenoir on stage.

Rush Hour 3 features the touristy parts of Paris particularly the Eiffel Tower, Champs d Elycee and Arc d Triomphe. See beautfiul Paris;city of lovers.

If you have the time and like a good laugh at the antics of Chan and Chris, Rush Hour 3 can be entertaining. Go see it and laugh your silly head off!
