''All he wanted was some mooshoo'' says agent Lee (Jackie Chan) after his American partner, Agent Carter (Chris Tucker) is supposidly dead in an explosion. Wow, that line itself was the only funny part of the movie. It's the only time I laughed, the only time I thought ''wow, those, those guys actually made me laugh. And since my other friends DIDN'T laugh at that part, but practiclly every other part, they had a near death experince laughing. This has something to say about who I am.
The ''So called'' Plot
Here's the plot, since the first Rush (Which I had the brains not to see), Agent Lee joins with Carter once again, in Tokyo. They show this in previews and commercials, but half of it is in Las Vegas, which I didn't find surprising. It would of been a tad better if the entire movie was in Tokyo, but hey, this is a big-block bluster movie. Anyways, they sense that this Ricky Tan guy, who is also Agent Lee's father's former partenr, after he KILLED HIM. The two ''suspect'' that he's up to something, and they find out what by a women that they look out of a telescope on the other building, watching her undressing. Ricky Tan is making fake money! Oh no, how insane! Perhaps that will show how exactly they care about money by BURNING it! It also shows them the respect there country: a place where you can find half decent actors and hard worker screenplay writers and turn them into a money burning movie (Not only literally).
The acting
Jackie Chan plays Jackie Chan, a Chinese, not-good-speaking-english actor who is famous for ''Doing his own stunts''. Chris Tucker plays Chris Tucker, a black comedian and jokes are orientated to saying how hot woman are and making fun of short guys, and says to the owner of a close store ''And my friend here will take something from the kids section''. Ironic how you SOUND like an annoying 11-year old brat who thinks he's been through puberty saying that he loves ''hot'' girls. Hmm. Irony is funny. So nothing special from acting, just basic Chan and Tcuk.
Did I enjoy this movie
Why must I ask this question? Oh yeah, to let you know how lifeless this movie is. Don't see it. If your an annoying 11 year-old or an adult who doesn't know what funny is, then by all means, see this flick!
It was funny, when Carter burned the money. It was like an out-of-body experince. This was like what I was doing for paying full price to see this movie.
