In this episode of Movie Postmortem, we review Rush Hour (1998), the action-comedy that launched one of the most popular franchises of the late ’90s. We discuss Jackie Chan’s physical brilliance as Inspector Lee, Chris Tucker’s motor-mouth energy as Detective Carter, and how their cultural clash somehow turns into perfect comedic chemistry.
Somehow, we even manage to connect this to K-pop, tracing parallels in global pop culture crossovers and martial arts.
