Summoned from Hong Kong to Los Angeles after a Chinese consul’s daughter is kidnapped, Inspector Lee finds himself sidelined by the FBI and paired with an LAPD detective who’s meant to keep him out of the case. Jackie Chan is Lee, a disciplined investigator with a quiet, precise style; Chris Tucker’s James Carter is loud, impulsive, and certain he should be handling things his own way. As leads pull them from police stations to back alleys and upscale galas, the two cops keep colliding over method, authority, and how to get to the people behind the abduction.
