Action, Comedy

2.5/5

The "Rush Hour" franchise has been a staple of action-comedy films for over two decades, with Jackie Chan and John Cho delivering memorable performances as Inspector Lee and James Carter, respectively. Unfortunately, the highly anticipated fourth installment fails to live up to the standards set by its predecessors.

The movie picks up where the third installment left off, with Lee and Carter reuniting to take on a new threat. This time, they're up against a powerful tech mogul (played by a charismatic villain, but with limited screen time). The plot twists and turns, with the duo navigating through various international locales, but it feels overly complicated and lacks the freshness of the earlier films.

Not announced (although a fourth installment has been rumored for years)

If you're a die-hard fan of the franchise, you might still enjoy it, but for everyone else, it's a skippable installment. Let's hope the next film in the series will recapture the magic that made "Rush Hour" a beloved franchise.
