The Tuxedo
This is an excellent film and I suggest that anybody who enjoyed the rush hour 1 & 2 films will love this. Jackie Chan stars as the movie's main charecter and throughout the film he provides some comical contributions to the movie i.e. when he ''shakes his booty'' after pressing the wrong button on his watch after he dons the tuxedo. Also co-star Jennifer Love-Hewitt is fantastic in this film, especially with her sarcastic charecter. Overall this film is fantastic and I would recommended to everybody.
