We're Wrong About... Rush Hour with Winston A. Marshall
Listen now
Description
The 1998 comedy blockbuster 'Rush Hour' is more than just a hilarious buddy-cop movie. It also happens to be the reason Rotten Tomatoes exists. 'Rush Hour' was Jackie Chan's first big American movie and Senh Duong, founder of Rotten Tomatoes, decided to build a website that aggregated reviews of Chan's previous films for American audiences. Twenty-five years later and here we are, taking a look back at the film that started it all, the movie that helped build a website empire. Guest Winston A. Marshall joins Mark and Jacqueline in discussing why although 'Rush Hour' is technically a Fresh movie, with a 62% rating on the Tomatometer, Winston believes 'Rush Hour' to be a perfect film. Do you agree with 'Rush Hour's' Fresh rating? Let us know in the comments below.
