Rush Hour 3

Time: 5 minutes       Difficulty: ★★★

Rush Hour 3 is the third installment（部分）in the Rush Hour franchise starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker, which began with Rush Hour and continued with Rush Hour 2. On May 7, 2006, the film was officially（正式）announced and filming began on July 4, 2006. The film is to be set in Paris, New York City, and Los Angeles. Rush Hour 3 has a target release date of August 10, 2007.

In one scene, basketball player Sun Ming Ming, the second tallest Chinese person and seventh tallest person in the world, fights Chris Tucker. This is a reference（参考）to Bruce Lee’s film Game of Death in which he fights Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Oscar winning film director Roman Polanski will co-star in the film as a French police official involved in Lee and Carter’s case. Tzi Ma will reprise（重演）his role as Consul Han, Lee’s boss and friend who appeared in the first installment.

Hong Kong Police Chief Inspector Lee’s (Jackie Chan) latest assignment（任务）is to escort（护送）and protect Chinese Ambassador Han (Tzi Ma) as he delivers a major address before the World Criminal Court Summit in Los Angeles. In his speech, Han is expected to reveal（揭露）important findings on the world’s biggest crime syndicate（集团）, the Chinese Triads. While delivering his address, however, he is shot and nearly killed. Meanwhile, former LAPD Detective James Carter (Chris Tucker), who has recently been demoted（降职）to a far less flattering position of a traffic cop, just happens to be listening in on the radio when the tragedy occurs. He rushes to the scene of the crime to help, but instead interferes with Lee’s pursuit（追赶）of the culprits（犯人）. Determined to reclaim his Detective status, he teams up with Lee once again to help track down the assassins（刺客）. With the trail leading the duo on a chase to Paris, France, both will find themselves in unfamiliar territory（地域）. The two will be forced to battle the French police, the Triads, and the foreign culture if they are going to solve the mystery（神秘事件）in time.
