Rush Hour

If you thought 12 Monkeys, From Dusk Till Dawn, and Minority Report were rather mediocre renditions of the cinematic original, then you haven't seen CBS's Rush Hour. Can this devastating misery please stop some day ?! If, as a silliness station, you no longer know how to fill your programming, just buy the rights to the bowling world championships. Must be a lot cheaper and I can hardly imagine that fewer people will look at it. The consumption. If Chris Tucker, the funny man in Rush Hour the movie, isn't overshadowed by heavyweights like Katt Williams, Dave Chappelle and Eddie in his good days, CBS's Agent Carter Justin Hires is in the top ten. pages of The List Of American Funny Guys. In fact, it's probably dangling at the very bottom somewhere. Just below Martin Lawrence and all eight of the extremely funny Wayans brothers. And then that Jackie Chan wannabe… It's as if they asked Tommy Beugelsdijk to play the lead role in a film about the life of Cristiano Ronaldo. One of the martial arts' greatest acrobats is casually replaced by CBS with a dude who jumps over benches like an elderly man with advanced arthritis. A travesty. The pair are flanked by a can of actors, who have proven more than once in the past to be more useful in a bistro with a menu in hand, so don't expect too much from that either. In the 45-minute first episode, they briefly rip through the entire storyline of Rush Hour I, in the episodes that follow it goes from bad to worse. Uninspired writing, zero chemistry between the two guys who have to wear the show and flat nods to the original that only underline what an incredibly poor rehash this is. Does CBS think that the people who watched the film in '98 are now so degraded that they no longer realize what kind of shit they are getting pushed down their throats? Must be. Leave this good for what it is. It is the best advice you will get today. Unless someone texts now that all Tony's Chocolonely are on offer with the App. Then not.

A fun series with humor, drama and a bit of action!
