Jackie Chan looks spiffy in The Tuxedo, but the movie needs a tailor. No Jackie Chan movie could be a total misfire, however, and he's charmingly self-effacing here as a hapless chauffeur who inadvertently replaces his injured super-agent boss (Jason Issacs) and foils a madman (Ritchie Coster) who plans to infect the world's water supply (!) and reap a fortune selling pure bottled water. Jackie's a bumbling superhero after donning his boss's high-tech, Inspector Gadget-like tuxedo (it even has a "Mambo" setting), and curvaceous co-agent Jennifer Love Hewitt coaches him in crime fighting while closing in on the bad guys. It's all as routinely ridiculous as it sounds--Jackie's faux James Brown act is the only real highlight--and as critic Roger Ebert observed, the climax hinges on an insect queen that doesn't exist in nature! So, while Jackie and Jennifer provide a few moments of stellar stunts and random amusement, you can blame this mess on screenwriters who didn't do their homework. --Jeff Shannon

Summary: Silly and Funny...
Comment: When you are in the mood for a silly movie, this is it! Jackie Chan always manages to make fun out of every situation. Do not take it serious. It is not an action thriller, or a serious movie, It is a fun movie, just go for the ride!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Get this one
Comment: Jackie Chan Movies have a certain flair but usually are only fair movies but this one is a terrific movie with a good plot and Jennifer Love Hewitt plays a great sidekick for Chan. Lots of humor and nifty action gets rolling in this film .Chan becomes a super hero in the Tuxedo and watching him use it is hilarious . Don't walk and instead run and get this one for a lot of fun maybe on a Saturday night.

Summary: One of the bad movies starring Jackie Chan
Comment: It's one of the bad movies starring Jackie Chan. It's not funny. The fighting scenes are below par compared to other films of Jackie.
Customer Rating:
Summary: James Bond 007 Spoof.....
Comment: Quirky, funny and light-hearted! Jackie Chan has wonderful humor in this movie where he plays a chauffer who turns into a secret agent to help catch the bad guy while his boss is in the hospital! Lots of funny high tech gadgets are used in this movie, kind of like the ones you'd expect in a 007 movie!
The drawbacks in this movies is the annoying character Jennifer Love Hewitt plays..... part of the interactions she has with Jackie Chan's character are funny and the other parts are not.
The villian and how he plans to conquer the world is very hokey and phony! Plus how Chan's and Hewitt's characters attempt to capture the villian is a little silly.
Otherwise you have a great movie!

Summary: [Really three and a half out of five] Jennifer Hate Hewitt and Jackie Chan - yea, but it works!
Comment: Surprisingly good effort of mixing secret
agents, fung fu and comedy together with
very good results. Look for bad guy from
'The Patriot' in here as well as foil.
Hewitt sure has grown up! Wow! No more
too 'cute girl next door', like in Party
of Five!
