Rush Hour 3

To date the last of the Rush Hour films, Rush Hour 3 is the weakest (by far). Every aspect of the film feels tired, pulling lesser versions of villains from both the first two films, and throwing Lee (Jackie Chan) and Carter (Chris Tucker) together ending up in Paris. We get the the abduction of Soo Yung (Jingchu Zhang) like in the first film, the evil philanthropist (Max Von Sydow) in plain sight like the first film, a villain (Hiroyuki Sanada) tied to Lee’s past like in the second film, and bigger stunts, goofy sequences (including Carter’s groanworthy fight sequence in a dojo and the molestation by French cops) and exotic locales in an attempt to hide the script’s many, many problems.

Black Widow & Hawkeye #3

Black Widow & Hawkeye #3

The third issue of the series is more interesting in its flashbacks than the present where we don’t see much advancement to the story other than Clint Barton feeling some enhanced anger since the symbiote saved his life and being haunted by its thoughts which don’t have a high opinion of the man or his current plans (on his plans, the symbiote has a point).
