I saw RUSH HOUR 3 today. The story made no sense at all, but I had a good time anyway…mostly because of Chris Tucker. He was the movie. He made lines funny that weren’t funny. Max Von Sydow was in the movie, too, which I also found amusing. If you cast him in a part, you might as well hang a sign around his neck that says: ——-
Well, you know what it should say.
So, Lee…
I’ve got a 9-year-old and a 13-year-old (sons). Did you take your daughter? Can I take my kids?
There is one sex scene in the movie — although there is no nudity, the dialogue and situation do push the PG-13 boundary. It depends on your comfort zone. It will probably go over the head of your 9year old’s head and your 13 year old should be fine.
Oddly enough, I just saw THE SEVENTH SEAL the other evening. How does von Sydow’s performance in RUSH HOUR 3 stack up to that one?
Oh, and I’ll always have a soft spot in my heart for FLASH GORDON.
Max was interesting in FLASH GORDON…
Remember, the movie looked like THE BIRDCAGE threw up on BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25TH CENTURY, but the soundtrack by Queen was fabulous.
I was in the first one in downtown LA. I was in the building they blew up as a swat team member, until I got into a tussle with who turned to be the director over a gas mask problem. The guy almost broke my glasses and after i told me off, pushed him off me in fact i got promoted to detective and sent out on the street with Jackie and Chris. Nice change!
