One of those you hate to love. Even if you hate Tucker (and who doesn’t, really) he is terribly funny in this. Jackie Chan is so charming…
What’s more:
I reviewed this one from memory for one reason; I had planned to watch X3 with my daughter but we ran out of time. So since I was already prepared for a Brett Ratner movie, I decided to do this one.
I probably won’t be reviewing the sequels. I remember seeing 2 in the theater and thinking it was pretty good for a sequel. I didn’t see the 3rd one.
If you liked 1980’s Eddie Murphy movies, you really can’t criticize this picture. I don’t find Tucker as funny, but I’m sure Richard Pryor fans didn’t find Murphy as funny either.
And any excuse to watch Jackie Chan is a pretty good one. The man is a magician and it’s a blast to gape at his crazy stunts. What he does is so beyond fight stunts; his moves are actual story elements.
