Sinopses(1)
In the heart of Paris lies a deadly secret. Half a world away in Los Angeles, Ambassador Han is about to disclose it. In his possession is explosive new evidence about the inner workings of the Triads--the most powerful and notorious crime syndicate in the world. The Ambassador has discovered the identity of Shy Shen, the very crux of the wide-ranging crime ring, and he's about to reveal it to the World Criminal Court--until he is silenced by an assassin's bullet. The Triads will go to any lengths to make sure their secrets stay buried, and there's only one hope for stopping them. LAPD Detective Carter and Chinese Inspector Lee are back--back where they don't belong. The unlikely duo is headed to the City of Lights to stop a global criminal conspiracy and save the life of an old friend, Ambassador Han's now-grown daughter, Soo Yung. They don't know the city, the language or even exactly what they're looking for, but their race will take them across the city, from the depths of the Paris underground to the breathtaking heights of the Eiffel Tower, as they fight to outrun the world's most deadly criminals and save the day.

Same old. Basically, the only thing that’s changed is the location (which they even included in the title, just in case) and the villain. Luckily, it’s a template that I find quite agreeable. Plus, the final fight on the Eiffel Tower was really impressive. And the outtakes are funnier than last time.

Sometimes I say to myself that dubbing isn’t so bad after all. For instance it saved me from having to listen to Tucker’s unbearable high-pitched tone (I swear I know a girl with an identical voice - but at least she doesn’t use it to communicate such bullshit) and Chan’s still rather sputtery English. What it didn’t save me from is Sydow’s rather too obvious “I’m wasted here, I know that, but don’t give a shit, and nor should you" pose. If this were Polanski, I wouldn’t have to endure variations on the theme “I’m the worst acted cop that has ever appeared in the history of French crime movies, Steve Martin’s Clouseau included". And mainly I wouldn’t have to look for a puke bucket during the singing scene, the exercises on the safety net or during the “tricolor gives you wings" scene. The surprising thing is, that even despite all the above, I quite enjoyed it. As long Sanada and Chan were on set and weren’t saying anything, it worked. Occasionally.

The longer you see these two clowns, the more you shake your head and let yourself be carried away by the crazy wave of adventure and nonsense. The third installment requires forgiving many things because it is full of classic action clichés and an incredibly empty plot. On the other hand, it is sufficiently action-packed and it is evident that no expense was spared on the technical aspects and overall look (the costumes are a whole chapter on their own). The finale on the tower is very well shot and the leading duo can still handle themselves well. I even laughed at their lines a few times, which I don't recall from the previous installments, so I definitely wouldn't throw it in the trash. In addition, Ratner to outdo himself several times during the movie, and I liked that a lot.

The third installment tries to create a more complex connection with the previous films, especially the first one. We see the little girl from the first film return and influence the events, which otherwise follow a fairly logically classic pattern. Tucker and Chan goof around, with the former showing off how quickly he can talk, and the second displaying his acrobatic abilities. It’s just another installment in the series, with which it gradually sinks deeper into mediocrity. What will the fourth installment be like, I wonder?
