Chan is still one of the most amazing -- and one of the most charming -- physical performers the movies have given us.
What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
Washington Post by Desson Thomson
Nothing more or less than a moneymaking encore. The story is functional. The performers assume their marks with almost flippant ease.
New York Daily News by Jami Bernard
The co-stars genuinely like each other, and their pleasure is infectious.
Wall Street Journal by Joe Morgenstern
The movie is counterfeit too, a coarse imitation of a stylish star vehicle for stars who deserve the real thing.
New York Post by Jonathan Foreman
The contrast between Chan's charm and physical prowess and Tucker's lack of same is even more dramatic in this tiresome, leaden sequel.
Los Angeles Times by Kenneth Turan
Feels out of shape and self-satisfied, as if it knew it didn't have to try very hard.
Charlotte Observer by Lawrence Toppman
Looks as if it were thrown together as carelessly as slum housing.
Chicago Reader by Lisa Alspector
This action comedy transforms LAPD detective Chris Tucker from an intolerably annoying egotist into a practically lovable intolerably annoying egotist.
TV Guide Magazine by Maitland McDonagh
Should please undiscriminating fans. But it in no way improves on the clichéd formula.
Superior sequel, which is the very model of the limber, transnational Hollywood action comedy.
