All I can say is that they truly don't make movies like this anymore. Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker were too good together, they made the best duo. The way they bounce off each other is something you don't see much in modern buddy cop movies. It's a classic that never gets old, and it's hard to find something that matches its energy today. What sets Rush Hour apart is its ability to keep the audience engaged with thrilling action sequences and laugh-out-loud moments without missing a beat. I dare say its the best of the genre. One of the standout comedic moments is when Jackie Chan pretends not to know English-absolute peak comedy. His deadpan delivery combined with Tucker's growing exasperation made it a memorable scene that had audiences in stitches. In addition to its comedic brilliance, Rush Hour delivers a gripping high-stakes crime plot that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. If you haven't seen it in a while, it's definitely worth a rewatch to remind yourself why it's still considered one of the best in the genre.

Another nice movie that reminds me of my childhood. It's funny, light-hearted, and satisfying - the kind where good people win in the end.

Jackie Chan shows off his great skills, blending action and comedy effortlessly. His fight scenes are smart, fast, and creative, and he brings a lot of heart to the character. Chris Tucker's energy adds even more fun, making them a perfect duo.

It's one of those feel-good action comedies that still holds up after all these years. Easy to rewatch, fun to quote, and full of entertaining moments.

Rush Hour is a classic buddy cop film from the 90s, but its a little more special because the pairing of both Jackie Chan (Inspector Lee) and Chris Tucker (Detective James Carter) was pure genius by the team behind this as they both have amazing chemistry and work off of each other perfectly. Would I say this is both of their best performances, far from it.......but it showed that you could get two polar opposite actors and make it work with clever writing and great acting.

Now the story and directing isn't super original, but this is definitely an incredibly entertaining film that has more than a few laughs and also you can see this was one of the American films that Jackie did with his JC Stunt Team because though toned it has some great stunt work that Jackie fans will love.

All in all, this is an extremely fun film of two different worlds colliding to solve a case and I know my rating looks too high but honestly nostalgia is a hell of a drug and this film still holds up well.

A good cop-buddy movie with Jackie Chan action, Chris Tucker humour. Good entertainment with no further aspirations.

Funny action flick starring Jackie Chang, who makes this movie enjoyable. I didn't care much for Chris Tucker.

Watched this because it was on ITV and I actually really enjoyed it, I'm not into action films normally, however this was quite comedic and I do quite like Jackie Chan.

Rush Hour is still a very enjoyable film to watch. I like the chemistry between Jackie and Tucker and I enjoy the jokes. Love the classic Jackie Chan stunts, still enjoy the scene were the sing "War", I enjoy the simplicity of the story and the runtime is just perfect around 97 minutes.

Rush Hour is a film I always enjoy watching even if I catch it right in the middle.

A classic action-comedy film that has stood the test of time. But let's be real, Chris Tucker is the real star of the show here. His over-the-top performance as Detective James Carter is simply unforgettable, and he steals every scene he's in. His chemistry with Jackie Chan's character is also a highlight, making for some truly hilarious and entertaining moments.
