Top CriticThree years later in the sequel, Tucker and Chan had found their groove, even if the movie did not have as many good laughs and great stunt work. Now, though, it is an awkward Greatest Hits Reunion Show, and neither one of them seem up to the task
09/07/07
Top CriticA completely forgettable popcorn flick...
08/08/07
Rush Hour 3 is the movie equivalent of a paint-by-numbers picture. No matter how much color you slap on top of it, you can always see the numbers guiding you underneath.
08/14/07
Proves that $25 million does not buy a good, or even bearable performance.
09/12/07
Jackie Chan is stellar, Chris Tucker is lame and the film is, while proficiently produced, about as dumb as a sack of hammers.
08/04/07
Director Brett Ratner gives and he takes away. After destroying one trilogy last year with X-Men: The Last Stand, revives another with Rush Hour 3.
08/08/07
Director Brett Ratner, who built a career on this buddy cop franchise, has cobbled together a lazy and formulaic action comedy that is neither thrilling nor particularly funny.
08/07/07
The action is ho-hum, the attempts at comedy are inept and the whole mismatched partners mojo is all dried up in this snooze-worthy third, and hopefully last, Rush Hour flick.
08/28/07
There's a fine line between the frenetic fun to be found in returning to a familiar roller-coaster ride and the dead-end slog of a dying franchise.
08/08/07
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
The only thing that's up-to-date about Rush Hour 3 is the way that 53-year-old Jackie Chan shows his age.
08/10/07
This cloying, fractured slop of uninspired swill is content to swim among summer's worst.
08/16/07
Two hours of non-stop, ear-shattering, humourless shrieking. It's simply unbearable. You soon find yourself begging for him to die.
08/10/07
Shame on you Jackie, Chris, Brett, and Jeff - you are all better than this.
08/08/07
Reliably energetic entry in the lowbrow Tucker-Chan action-comedy series manages to be both smart and stupid at the same time.
08/09/07
This movie makes a fine replacement for the previous two installments.
08/11/07
Nine years after the first Rush Hour and a whopping six years after Rush Hour 2, the buddy chemistry between Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker is finally showing signs of fatigue.
