Rush Hour vs Shanghai Noon


Watched them both back to back again the other day after not have seen them in years. Both feel about the same, as far as production quality, story-line, and comedy duo. But I thought Rush Hour was the funnier movie. Shanghai Noon, I just mainly felt lighthearted, while I genuinely did crack up on some scenes in Rush Hour.

As far as the sequels go, from what I remember I didn't like Shanghai Knight. Didn't like Rush Hour 2 the first time I seen it in theaters, then liked it more the second and third times I seen it afterwards. Rush Hour 3 was bad.

Just thinking about the comparisons because these are the only Jackie Chan movies were he does a duo. Don't think either Duo is better than the other, I just found Chris Tucker's delivery, lines, and situations funnier than what Owen Wilson had to work with, which was why Rush Hour was funnier to me.
