I just got done watching Rush Hour, it was a good movie. Rush Hour, the 1998 action comedy directed by Brett Ratner, successfully blends two immensely different personalities. The film also works because it contains the perfect amount of action and comedy. it is basically about rescuing a kidnapped girl. Jackie Chan plays as Lee, the Hong Kong cop who flies to the United States to investigate the kidnapping of little Soo Yung (Julia Hsu), the daughter of Chinese consule and close friend Han (Tzi Ma). The problem is, the FBI want him out of the way so they can get the criminas themselves. So they get talking mouthed LAPD James Carter (ChrisTucker), to keep him away from the consule and show around the country.Chan and Tucker are truly opposites. Jackie is known for his modest demeanor and amazing physical abilities, but not for his amazing grasp of the English language. Chris is outspoken, a shameless motormouth that just will not shut up. The pairing of these two actors works well. Chan provides us with the action and Tucker provides us with the comic.In Rush Hour, Chan stars as Detective Inspector Lee, one of the best police officers in Hong Kong. He has recently confiscated millions of dollars worth of weapons, drugs, and important Chinese artifacts owned by one of the country’s most dangerous and powerful crime lords, named Juntao. He is the one who kidnapps the consule daughter and holds her for 50 million dollars. That's when Chris comes in to keep Jackie outof sight but it didn't work so well.
