Expect Chan and Tucker to bust it up with a steady array of bad guys, just as they've done before. And before.

Consensus: Rush Hour 3 is a tired rehash of the earlier films, and a change of scenery can't hide a lack of new ideas.

Reviews for Rush Hour 3
The best buddy-cop comedy since Rush Hour 2.
08/10/07
It may have taken six years to get Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker back together but the chemistry is still there even if it looks like everyone probably signed on just to mint money.
08/10/07
Rush Hour 3 is an awfully spare title for such a big-money enterprise, but an appropriate subtitle like Auto Pilot or Once More For The Cash would have given the game away.
08/10/07
There's no doubt that Rush Hour 3 is anything but a mess. And yet there were moments when I found myself laughing giddily at the inanity of it all, and other moments when the picture was so beautiful to look at that I almost forgot its faults.

Top CriticYou've got to hand it to Brett Ratner. He knows how to make a formula comedy breeze by in an efficient 90 minutes.
08/10/07
To describe it as lazy hackwork would be an insult to the phrase "lazy hackwork."
08/10/07
The final, and anti-climactic, 'threequel' of the summer has nothing new to say. A staleness pervades the film, despite all efforts to inject freshness and excitement into a tired story.
08/10/07
Rush Hour 3 is a blockbuster sequel filmed with the enthusiasm of jury duty and as barren of novelty as a burned-out souvenir stand.
08/10/07
Top CriticTucker is so inventive he makes it worth seeing.
08/10/07
For those who still enjoy the formula, Rush Hour 3 will suit fine; but here's a vote for letting Lee and Carter dance into the sunset, having sung their last chorus.
08/10/07
A half-hour of brilliance, preceded by an hour of dreck… a roughly comparable dreck-to-brilliance ratio to the first two Rush Hour movies, I guess, and par for the course for Jackie's Hollywood films.
08/10/07
Although the formula seems a tad tired, it's still more entertaining than most sequels to a sequel.
08/10/07
Top CriticRush Hour 3 is a traffic jam of clichés that doesn't achieve gridlock mainly because the stars, Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker, are too tireless to quit.
08/10/07
A sense of fatigue accompanies Rush Hour 3. Timing is part of it, since it's the last of so many summer sequels. But the movie itself runs on fumes.
08/10/07
Rush Hour 3 is just sad, but what is sadder still is the certainty that there will be a Rush Hour 4.
08/10/07
Roman Polanski has a confounding two-scene cameo as a customs official who gives Carter and Lee a full cavity search. (Har har.)
08/10/07
Rush Hour 3 is an exercise in critic-proofing: If you like this sort of thing, this is the sort of thing you'll like.
08/10/07
This may be the best-looking film in the series; certainly, the Paris setting, with a climactic battle among the girders of the Eiffel Tower, keeps the visuals interesting. Better you buy a postcard.
08/10/07
Top CriticThe movie aims for irreverent, but delivers irrelevant instead. Let's hope the Rush Hour series stalls here.
