What happens

Rush Hour 2 is a 2001 American buddy cop action comedy film directed by Brett Ratner and written by Jeff Nathanson. A sequel to Rush Hour (1998), it is the second installment in the Rush Hour franchise and stars Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker reprising their roles from the first film. The story follows Hong Kong Police Force (HKPF) Chief Inspector Lee (Chan) and Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Detective James Carter (Tucker), who go to Hong Kong on vacation only to be thwarted by a murder case involving two U.S. customs agents after a bombing at the American embassy. Lee suspects that the crime is linked to the Triad crime lord Ricky Tan (Lone). This film was filmed in Hong Kong, Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Rush Hour 2 was released by New Line Cinema on August 3, 2001, to mixed reviews. The film was a commercial success, grossing $347.5 million worldwide, making it the highest-grossing film in the franchise. It also became the year's fifth-highest-grossing film domestically in the United States, as well as the second-highest-grossing PG-13-rated film in that market. A sequel, Rush Hour 3, was released on August 10, 2007. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
