Lee and Carter discover the Triad is operating an international smuggling ring. They agree to solve the case so they can enjoy their vacation together. Lee explains to Carter that Ricky Tan is an ex-Chinese cop who killed Lee’s father, also a cop, while he was investigating an unsolved case. Lee confronts Ricky Tan (John Lone), the leader of the local Triad gang, and is distracted by a mysterious and sadistic female gang member. His boss believes one of the fearful Chinese gangs known as the Triads is involved and decides Lee should be sent in to handle it. LAPD Detective Carter (Tucker) is anxious to begin his vacation and party with Chinese women, but Inspector Lee (Chan) is still on the job and is asked to investigate a U.S. Thankfully, Tucker’s mouth and Chan’s fists each fly faster and tighter than in the original comedy. It’s been two years since the first RUSH HOUR, but the story picks up just one week later and opens in Hong Kong. RUSH HOUR 2 reunites Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker for this fast-paced, action-packed, don’t-let-the-public-realize-there’s-little-plot-here martial arts comedy.

(B, Pa, PC, Ho, LLL, VV, S, N, A, D, M) Moral worldview about two police detectives, one Chinese & one African-American, who team up to fight an international smuggling ring, plus some pagan immoral elements, one politically correct statement & one minor homosexual character appears gratuitously in the movie 48 obscenities, 2 profanities, one hero exclaims, “Lord Jesus, I don’t want to die!” & “Oh, my Lord!” & character mentions that gang will cut off man’s “egg roll” much of the action violence, including plenty of martial arts fighting, is played for comical effect &, other than two agents dying (unseen) in a bombing, only the villains die in this good-overcomes-evil story many light sexual references & humor including some voyeurism as woman undresses in hotel room brief rear male nudity shown during scenes in a Japanese massage parlor with scantily clad women & woman in underwear drinking smoking and, revenge motif & gambling not fully rebuked but theft, gangsterism, counterfeiting, & lying rebuked. Consequently, MOVIEGUIDE® recommends caution for teenagers, especially younger ones and teenagers struggling with sexual issues. What doesn’t work so well is Carter’s lascivious obsession with beautiful females. What works best are the comical action scenes and the Odd Couple relationship between Lee and Carter, which the movie plays for all that it’s worth. RUSH HOUR 2 steers to avoid stalls and heavy delays in the storyline.
