Skiptrace (2016)
6/10
A slower and less exciting Rush Hour with worse chemistry between the two main actors, but all that being said its still decent
27 September 2016
"If I go back with you they're gonna kill me." Bennie (Jackie Chan) is one of the best detectives in Hong Kong and after the death of his partner he begins his hunt for a man known as the Matador. He is stuck until he hears about Connor Watts (Knoxville) and his problems. Now with an item and a suspect the two must do whatever it takes to find the man they think is the Matador, before it's too late. This is a movie that was pretty much what I expected. The trailer and the poster make it seem like a Rush Hour type movie with Knoxville instead of Tucker. That is basically what this movie is. The chemistry between these two isn't as good, Chan looks tired and Knoxville seems to try way to hard in this. That said, the movie isn't terrible and is worth watching but it does really tend to drag and get very repetitive. Fans of Jackie Chan will like this, but this should be that last movie like this he does. Overall, a slower and less exciting Rush Hour with worse chemistry between the two main actors, but all that being said its still a decent watch. Just tone down your expectations. I give this a C+.
