he must have been doing several different movies as he only had 1 short scene, so he been reading lines for different scenes and said that line lol, i doubt he would say it for fun as he was no part of the main cast and jackie is known for h8 people who delay on purpose
The Rush Hour trilogy in terms of comedic value will never be replicated. Not only would a lot of the jokes be scrutinised today, no studio in their right mind would greenlight them. Rush Hour 123 are gems that we won’t see again.
I think Jen is going to really like Rush Hour 2. Generally speaking most people say its the best. Good story, humor and martial arts is even better. Rush hour 2 is a movie I can watch over and over and never get tired of. I'm glad she enjoyed the first one.
If anyone doesn’t laugh and enjoy rush hour; they have no soul. Also, the 2nd I think is def the best imo. And I also think Jen would like the Owen Wilson Shang Hai movies better, b/c Tucker is love or hate comedic actor. Also, I feel like Rush Hour doing the opiate credit gag reel is one of the 1st movies to really make the audience stick around, b/c the outtakes are that funny.
End credit gag reels were a tradition of Jackie Chan movies long before Rush Hour, which is something he inherited from Hollywood movies like The Cannonball Run.
@@jp3813 that’s a good point; I suppose I mention it with rush hour b/c it was probably the 1st mainstream movie that reached past the martial arts fans, and covered movie fans of all types. But, he def was an innovator and rush hour was a perfect pairing at the perfect time in Hollywood and cultural perspectives on comedy. Nowadays, our society wouldn’t be able to put out a movie like this, b/c of “reasons”; sadly.
@@bigtim8617 I just hate that Brett Ratner held back Jackie's choreography b/c he claimed that Americans didn't like long fight scenes. Meanwhile, the Wachowskis were about to release The Matrix.
I grew up with Jackie Chan movies, Who Am I, Operation Condor, Drunken Master, Rush hour, Police story, etc. They are so unique, no one could combine martial arts and comedy the way he did. The Rush hour franchise is by far my favorite of the buddy cop genre.
One of the things Jackie Chan is well known for is implementing comedy with martial arts using everything around him to help him out. Also worth mentioning, notice how he always gets hurt and struggles in the fights but also comes out on top because he doesnt give up, he's just not the all-powerful hero. I think Jen just wasn't expecting the comedy and ridiculousness in the storyline, now knowing what to expect she's definitely gonna love the second one. Please also watch Shanghai Noon its another classic. Love the reactions hope the honeymoon went well!!
You should do a segment called my husband watches where Jen makes a list of movies/shows she likes that Holden hasn’t seen. Probably a very small list but it would be interesting to see Holden blind reacting to Jens favorite movies.
I’m going back to sayin how has Jen not seen this movie it’s like our generations classic, the jokes didn’t age well cuz of how people view comedy now but personally I think it still stands pretty good this is a decent trilogy
Nah, jokes depend on the context they're put in. Some of this is a little jarring at first if you've never seen it before, because you don't know what's what. But these jokes end up being great once you learn that the FBI guys are being portrayed as assholes, Carter is an idiot, and Jackie is a nice guy just trying to be friendly/polite but not knowing any better. The film isn't trying to depict Carter as wise or right. He's the butt of the joke. It's not making the FBI the heroes. They're sort of lesser antagonists. And Jackie isn't treated as fully knowing what's going on, he's just blindly repeating what seemed to be polite. Context defines how everything lands.
In this day an age you can’t even walk a certain way without offending someone. I appreciate this trilogy humor and storyline very much as I watched it a lot as a kid. Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker somehow managed to mesh extremely well and bring life to this film. Rush Hour 2 is still definitely the best and one of my favorite buddy cop films of all time. Congratulations on your wedding!
@@unitedstatesofamerica9948 Yeah, we should go back to the 1960s when it was illegal to show a toilet flush on TV, or when kids were getting disowned by their parents because they liked rock music. Media and art is more offensive and deviant than it has ever been, you just hear about people getting offended by it more because of the internet and social media lol
Every time someone complains about political correctness, there will - without fail - be at least one person who argues back with the most overly-literal and oxymoronic counterargument imaginable.
I think it’s great how this movie started a real friendship between Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. You can feel the chemistry between them is great. Chris Tucker has also been on record saying how working with Jackie in this movie in particular changed the way he approaches movies and his work ethic.
i was lucky enough to meet Jackie Chan a few years ago, he is one of the most down to earth and chill people ive ever met. He politely took a photo and signed a picture for me, then wished me a good day
Jackie Chan is an absolute legend. I love that he was super into Mitsubishi motorsports, to the point that he was the honorary director/leader of Ralliart in China I believe. He loves his Evos.
Jen finally cracked midway in the film, she would definitely love rush hour 2. Definitely my favorite out of the three. This is definitely one of the best buddy cop films of all time along with lethal weapon and 48 hours, bad boys. Great reaction guys
You guys should react to a very non-typical Jackie Chan movie, "The Foreigner", such a great movie and a very serious role for Jackie that I did not expect. I'm glad you mentioned it at the end there, Holden!
I really hope you guys are enjoying your honey moon. I think everyone here would agree you guys need a break but to have content still releasing while you’re on that break is incredible. I’d love to say you’re the best reaction channel on RUclips but you’re tied 1st place with Mr Video.
I have good memories of watching this in my childhood. Great movie. Good humor, Chris and Jackie have great chemistry, great action, and excellent pacing. 8/10.
I just hate how Brett Ratner held back JC's choreography b/c he claimed that Americans didn't like long fight scenes. Meanwhile, the Wachowskis were about to release The Matrix.
@@jp3813 Though to be fair, we have IN this very video an Ameican complaining about how they don't want to see too much fighting. lol But yeah, nah dawg, bad call, let Jackie fly free.
There's great little moment when Jackie Chan is climbing over the wall, he spots the security camera is pointed inward at the residence, so he points it outward, which is as it should be. Loved that.
I absolutely love the Rush Hour movies. Rush Hour 2 was my favorite. I'm with Holden on this one. I saw all these movies in the theater with my buddies, and we quoted them constantly.
Who Am I! An excellent choice for a favourite Jackie movie, personally I love City Hunter (literally a fever dream, based on an old school manga) and Legend of Drunken Master (or Drunken Master 2, depending on which region you're in) as my favourites.
So fun Fact, the guy Holden said was from the movie Beethoven's 2nd is also from Resevoir Dogs and is Sean Penn's brother Chris Penn. Unfortunately he passed away in 2006 from heart disease.
What is tough for first time watching Chris Tucker is his high and loud energy. It’s was a signature style for him back in the 90’s even when he was a stand up comic. My recommendations for more Chris are Money Talks, Fifth Element and Friday. The rest for rush hours of course but one change up for him is Dead Presidents to see him in a more dramatic role. Jackie Chan is a win no matter what. He’s almost the Chaplin of Kung-Fu genre of action. I’d love to see more reactions to Kung-Fu classics to watch some day.
i am so freaking happy when i heard that jackie is one of holden's fav not only actors but people in general because its the same for me, i honestly wish nothing more then to see you two react to all of the jackie movies or at least all of the really classic ones that never get old or bad. : )
Oh no way, this is a nice surprise lol one of my favorite action/comedy's of all time along with rush hour 2. The chemistry between Jackie and Chris is perfect.
Rush Hour and Ruch Hour 2 are two of my favorite movies too. But ultimately a ton of that hinges on on Jackie and Chris Tucker being hilarious, and Jackie's stunts and fighting being incredible. As plots and stories, and in terms of complexity and other characters...there's not HEAPS hoing on. Ultimately I think I have to give it a 9/10.
First time here I was staring at this couple and I was scratching my head it didn’t make any sense to me, but then she opens her mouth and I was like O ok lol.
Holden definitely is justified in his level of respect for Jackie Chan. This dude puts in work and has broken his body to bring surprisingly wholesome entertainment to the world for, what, 400 years now? Others can claim the same, but he's not bringing any weird stigmas along with it, like the full force of Scientology in his back pocket the way a cornball like Tom Cruise does. The guy lives life like a superstar, but when you see him in interviews, he seems like a genuinely friendly guy who would give you a few minutes with a giant smile if he could spare the time. In fact, he seems _so_ squeaky clean, I almost worry about a day that an email account gets leaked and we learn some sort of Bill Cosby-esque secrets... But that guy has had rumors for years. I really haven't heard anything negative about Jackie Chan. Either he's managed to remain a pure human being, or China's censorship is 2legit.
I need to tell you a story. I’ve met Jackie on several occasions, The first being at the USA premier of Rumble in the Bronx. As fan club members we had dinner with Jackie before the film. We snuck out as the film ended and we chased his limo to his hotel. We didn’t have the courage to go further. Also have his autobiography signed. Big fan here too, not just for who he is but the fact that he gives so much o himself just to entertain us.
yeaooo i randomly saw "Who Am I" on TV about 20 years ago and LOVED it lol. I didn't know the title of it for YEARS after seeing it randomly on TV, and was surprised it wasn't more well known. Thanks for the reminder lol
used to love rush hour, what a timeless classic, hands down one of the funniest movies I've ever watched. you wouldn't of thought the first movie was from the late 90's
You mentioned “Who Am I”, therefore, I love you in a completely platonic way. Hands down one of my favorite Jackie Chan movies, with Rumble in the Bronx and Legend of Drunken Master tied for second.
It's great that these reactions have transformed from "my gf watches" to my WIFE watches. Congratulations and thank you both for all the smiles you've brought my way😁
1:19 I have fond memories of that film especially as it was preceded by a documentary called "Jackie Chan My Stunts" recorded both on a VHS when they aired and watched them so much damn near wore out the tape.
this movie holds a special place in my heart because the chinatown part was fillmed right outside the apartment one of my relatives used to live and i used to always visit and see the huge mural saying rush hour was filmed here!
I totally get Jens reaction, I think it is one of those films that we all hold close to our hearts because we grew up with them. And it's hard to absolutely love a film like this when you're watching it for the first time in 2022 haha
Jackie Chan is not someone to look up to outside of their work in the movies...as is the case with most actors. The old adage about meeting your heroes exists for a reason.
Holdens reaction was great. Somedqy people will realize that watching reaction channels is more about confirmation of your feelings. It's a gamble with first time reqctors but those who have already seen the movie will be "singing along' with you and quoting things which is great
The guy who you said was in Beethoven 2 is Chris Penn, Sean Penn's brother. He died awhile back. I remember him from the Starsky and Hutch movie and Corky Romano.
fun fact the taxi driver in the beginning is gene lebell. considered one of the best jiu jitsu teachers in the country/world and is famously known to work with top tier martial artists and mma fighters like ronda rousey
I love the Rush Hour franchise. My favorites are 2 and 3. To me the first one was really cool. The first time I watched this franchise me and my brother sat down and watched all 3 movies in one day and it was freaking great. Jen you're gonna love this franchise if you love buddy cop movies
This is awesome. Now, when you two get into an argument, Jen can say, "Holden Thomas Hardman...DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE WORDS THAT ARE COMING OUT OF MY MOUTH?!"
"Rush Hour" is one of the best buddy cop action/comedies of the '90s (if not, all time) that I watched a lot of times on DVD when I was a pre-teen. And the things that are faster than the bullets are Jackie Chan's fists and Chris Tucker's jokes.💯
While Jackie Chan is a coward who denied taking responsibility for his actions (regarding his child), you can't deny that he made incredibly entertaining films. The greatest action comedy star of all time.
wow! its awesome finally seeing these movies make an appearance on this channel! i forget which one it was, but i believe i suggested these movies for you 2 years ago😁
I love most of Jackie Chan movies. One of my favorites is "City Hunter" which is the live adaptation of the Japanese anime. There is a bunch of extra silliness in the movie, in comparison to other Chan movies, that makes that one especially entertaining. Unfortunately Jackie Chan is no saint. He has admitted to beating his son, cheating on his wife several times, and has an illegitimate daughter that Chan refuses to acknowledge even when she was homeless.
Gotta agree. Love his movies, he does A LOT for charity, and he seems like a down-to-earth person in every day interactions. But you can tell when people only know surface level Jackie. I'm no saint either, but it's a little jarring when people speak about him as if he can do no wrong.
The outtakes of this movie are absolute gold. “Show me your badge. SHOW ME YOUR ASS!”
Oh I lobe that outtake. So hilarious
Gefilte fish
my favorite is from the 3rd movie the whole we're not brothers "after everything we've been through? rush hour 1, rush hour 2????"

Agreed. The way Chris and Jackie play off each other in the sequel is amazing. Their chemistry is off the charts.
He ain’t gonna be in Rush Hour 3
I think all 3 are great movies to watch over and over. Personally 3 is my fav.
Rush hour 2 is amazing, I can’t say the same for 3, third films are always worse
@@koulor315 I disagree, I think 3 if fine how it is.
I’ve seen Rush Hour like a million times and it’s still enjoyable every time. The perfect blend of comedy and action, best buddy cop film ever imo
If Jen thinks Chris Tucker has a high voice here, you should show her The Fifth Element...🤣
Right 😂

Holdens love for Jackie Chan is the same for me. Loved him in Drunken Master.

Everybody loved Jackie!
Original or Legend of?
@@gamerbear84 Original. The one you can't seem to find anywhere anymore.
@@Prime_Nexus1 I'm so glad I picked it up in London's HMV like twenty years ago. It's easily one of my favorite martial arts flicks.
Holden nerding out about Jackie Chan is adorable.
Who am I has the best two on one and Rumble has some the best group fight scenes of Jackie's career but yeah Holden is sweet.
Man these 80-90's buddy cop films are so good. Rush hour, Beverly Hills Cop, Lethal Weapon, etc. They don't really make 'em like this no more.
I don’t think they even make them anymore
Bad Boys fits that subgenre more than Beverly Hills Cop.
Now the other cop is a strong female feminist and the guy is gay ...
@@SaoodVidal1 Well, if Turner & Hooch can be a duo... Also, Jackie's first buddy cop movie was w/ Michelle Yeoh in Police Story 3 aka Supercop.

Such great funny movies. Jackie and Chris are amazing and their dynamic is so funny
At least half of Jackie CHan’s fights involve him yelling that he doesn’t want trouble while he kicks peoples’ asses.
The c4 guy at the beginning is also in Tarantino’s first film Reservoir Dogs. I can’t wait for you guys to get into the Tarantino movies!
"Skip Trace" is a Great Jackie Chan (and Johnny Knoxville???) show, can't go wrong with Jackie singing some Adelle.

A better time

It was great watching Jen slowly enjoy the movie as it went on. She tried not to laugh at first 🤣
Oh no way, this is a nice surprise lol one of my favorite action/comedy's of all time along with rush hour 2. The chemistry between Jackie and Chris is perfect.
Despite carters shenanigans he’s not actually an incompetent cop , he’s accountable when he messes up and is genuinely dedicated to helping civilians
Rush Hour and Ruch Hour 2 are two of my favorite movies too.
But ultimately a ton of that hinges on on Jackie and Chris Tucker being hilarious, and Jackie's stunts and fighting being incredible.

Yes yes yes!!
Absolute modern classic movie right there .
Thanks Mr.Holden !!
Have always loved this movie! Love the funny moments and the action. This one’s always been tied with ‘Shanghai Noon’ in my book! 😅
Doing the Lord's work by showing Jen this movie
Jackie Chan is not someone to look up to outside of their work in the movies...as is the case with most actors. The old adage about meeting your heroes exists for a reason.
Holdens reaction was great. Somedqy people will realize that watching reaction channels is more about confirmation of your feelings. It's a gamble with first time reqctors but those who have already seen the movie will be "singing along' with you and quoting things which is great
This is such a classic, I'm sure you'll enjoy all 3. If you like the Rush Hour movies you should definitely watch Shanghai Noon after.
The guy who you said was in Beethoven 2 is Chris Penn, Sean Penn's brother. He died awhile back. I remember him from the Starsky and Hutch movie and Corky Romano.
I recommend that you react to "The Forbidden Kingdom". Jackie Chan is also in this movie, along with Jet Li. Good action along with a story line.
"Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth" my favorite quote from the first movie
fun fact the taxi driver in the beginning is gene lebell. considered one of the best jiu jitsu teachers in the country/world and is famously known to work with top tier martial artists and mma fighters like ronda rousey
Dang, I never recognized the Godfather of Grappling.
Brooooo this I what we needed, Jackie Chan movies from 90s and 2000s are some of the best action movies. They are all underrated
I love the Rush Hour franchise. My favorites are 2 and 3. To me the first one was really cool. The first time I watched this franchise me and my brother sat down and watched all 3 movies in one day and it was freaking great. Jen you're gonna love this franchise if you love buddy cop movies
"We saw Moonfall there."
The first and last time this sentence will ever be heard.
This is awesome. Now, when you two get into an argument, Jen can say, "Holden Thomas Hardman...DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE WORDS THAT ARE COMING OUT OF MY MOUTH?!"
Jackie is the best, man. He IS a true gentleman.
I've always loved this trilogy. I wish they made 10 of these movies instead of Fast and Furious.
"Rush Hour" is one of the best buddy cop action/comedies of the '90s (if not, all time) that I watched a lot of times on DVD when I was a pre-teen. And the things that are faster than the bullets are Jackie Chan's fists and Chris Tucker's jokes.💯
While Jackie Chan is a coward who denied taking responsibility for his actions (regarding his child), you can't deny that he made incredibly entertaining films. The greatest action comedy star of all time.
Jackie's _Who Am I?_ is SO underrated. Recorded it onto VHS from the TV and watched it over and over when I was a kid.
12:23 Came for this reaction 🤣🤣🤣 God I missed the 90s when the world wasn't so woke.
wow! its awesome finally seeing these movies make an appearance on this channel! i forget which one it was, but i believe i suggested these movies for you 2 years ago😁
I love most of Jackie Chan movies. One of my favorites is "City Hunter" which is the live adaptation of the Japanese anime. There is a bunch of extra silliness in the movie, in comparison to other Chan movies, that makes that one especially entertaining. Unfortunately Jackie Chan is no saint. He has admitted to beating his son, cheating on his wife several times, and has an illegitimate daughter that Chan refuses to acknowledge even when she was homeless.
Gotta agree. Love his movies, he does A LOT for charity, and he seems like a down-to-earth person in every day interactions. But you can tell when people only know surface level Jackie. I'm no saint either, but it's a little jarring when people speak about him as if he can do no wrong.
Isn't he like super nationalist/pro-CCP too?
You guys need to see the Friday series. It's good.
It’s a classic that’s why we love the movie, 10/10 for me
5:11 had me rolling then you added the little shove 😂😂😂😂
