Rush Hour 2 retains the appeal of its popular predecessor, so it's easily recommended to fans of its returning stars, Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. The action--and there's plenty of it--starts in Hong Kong, where Detective Lee (Chan) and his L.A. counterpart Detective Carter (Tucker) are attempting a vacation, only to get assigned to sleuth a counterfeiting scheme involving a triad kingpin (John Lone), his lethal henchwoman (Zhang Ziyi, from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon), and an American billionaire (Alan King). Director Brett Ratner simply lets his stars strut their stuff, so it hardly matters that the plot is disposable, or that his direction is so bland he could've phoned it in from a Jacuzzi.
Recently watched it. The first one was pretty funny, but this was just awful. Same jokes, just not as funny this time and the plot was much much weaker. Tucker gets old after a while. Made a boatload of money though.

Don Cheadle agreed to do this movie only if he got to fight Jackie Chan and speak Chinese.

He and Jeremy Piven were the best parts of the movie.
