Critic Reviews

  • Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

    The third installment is so cartoonishly stupid it makes the original look like a classic.

  • Wesley Morris, Boston Globe

    This movie makes a fine replacement for the previous two installments.

  • Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

    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.

  • Claudia Puig, USA Today

    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.

  • Peter Howell, Toronto Star

    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.

    Run of the mill, identikit police action comedy, worst than the first two because its just the same and no different, although the first was alright. Tucker is reasonably funny but Chan should retire, the ending is impressive at the Eiffel Tower but becomes way too stupid very… More

    was it inevitable that this franchise would falter so bad? probably. i loved the first two, but while this one had some good action and very funny moments, it also had some terrible action, stale jokes, and the chemistry between the characters faltered a lot mostly due to tucker i… More

    Shouldn't have been made. Had bits and pieces of laughter, but struggled really hard to be like the first two films.

  • Dean !


    More of the same as the first 2 films but this time ending up in Paris for the finale. Although the franchise is starting to get a little old now, the first had a good story the 2nd is my fave for the action and comedy and this is more like the second film. Just getting a bit… More
