About this movie

The fastest hands in the East meet the biggest mouth in the West when legendary martial arts daredevil Jackie Chan ("Shanghai Noon," "The Forbidden Kingdom") teams with comedic powerhouse Chris Tucker ("Jackie Brown," "The Fifth Element") in Rush Hour. When Hong Kong police detective inspector Lee's (Chan) favorite pupil is kidnapped in America, the dedicated cop and martial arts genius travels to the United States to find her. Unhappy to have a meddling outsider, the FBI assigns reckless, arrogant and infuriating LAPD detective James Carter (Tucker) to baby-sit Lee--and keep him away from the investigation. But these two very different cops will stop at nothing to find the missing girl. MPAA Rating: PG-13 Copyright © 1999 New Line Productions, Inc.

I think the personal connection that Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker share off the camera truly shows through on camera. They work well together and even their goofs are absolutely golden. The one thing I noticed (Being an action fan) they really slowed down Jackie Chans fight scenes so that these stunt people could keep up.

The most Iconic original movie of all time. It was a head of it's time in comedy. The movie let's your emotions get the better of you. Rotten Tomatoes doesn't go into depth or gives any great reason to rate what they rate
