Rush Hour

I"ll introduce Rush Hour from 1998. This movie is a comedy action movie.  The director is the same person who directed the "Rush Hour" series, "The Family Man" and "Red Dragon".  His name is Brett Ratner. He has produced music videos for many artists, such as Madonna and Mariah Carey. The movie stars Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. Jackie Chan made his Hollywood movie debut in this movie.

 The movie is about a case where Chinese consul Han is daughter, Soo Yung is kidnapped in Los Angeles. Han calls the elite police Lee (Jackie Chan) from Hong Kong. He was a person who was an obstacle for the FBI doing the investigation. He was told to keep away from the investigation. James Carter (Chris Tucker) detective of the Los Angeles police department became his sidekick. They were hostile, but two people gradually united and they eventually find the mastermind behind the surprising.

Brett Ratner
This movie has two sequels, "Rush Hour 2" and "Rush Hour 3". In addition, Hiroyuki Sanada, the Japanese actor, appears as a villain in "Rush Hour 3". This movie a combination of Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker's talento. It is interesting and I like it. There is a drama version of this movie and it was broadcast by AXN channel in Japan. I have not seen it, but my brother says it seems to be interesting. Their action scenes are cool and I recommended it for people who like action movies. Let's check out the movie trailer.
