"You know what I love about this movie? The near-total absence of white people."
This comment was heard in the screening room after "Rush Hour 2," in which Chris Tucker ventures to try a bit of Cantonese and Jackie Chan shows his hip-hop moves in downtown Hong Kong. Hell, I'd venture to say this is one of the most minority-dominated films to come out of mainstream Hollywood in recent years. That said, the script by Jeff Nathanson has some decidedly un-PC moments, as when Tucker says to Chan: "I'm tall, dark and beautiful, and you're Third World ugly."
