Plot[edit]

After the events of Rush Hour, LAPD Detective James Carter is in Hong Kong visiting his friend, Hong Kong Police Force Chief Inspector Lee. Their vacation is put on hold when a bomb at the United States Consulate General kills two undercover U.S. Customs agents. Lee is assigned to the case and discovers that his late father's police partner, Ricky Tan, is somehow involved. Lee and Carter attempt to question Tan, now a leader of the Triads, resulting in a brawl with his bodyguards.

List of aristocrat slot machines. More than 2000 people from all over the world work for Aristocrat Gaming and the company has its development and marketing offices in many countries including South Africa, Russia, and Japan. Aristocrat Leisure Limited is the Australian slots software developer based in Sydney. The company was founded in 1953 and in 1996 was listed on the Australians Stock Exchange.

The U.S. Secret Service, led by Agent Sterling, and the Hong Kong Police Force fight over jurisdiction of the case. Lee's office is bombed and Lee, unaware Carter has left the building, believes him dead. They cross paths at a party on Tan’s yacht, where Tan scolds his underling, Hu Li. Lee and Carter confront Tan, who claims he is being framed by his enemies and asks for protection, but Hu Li shoots him and escapes. Sterling holds Lee responsible for Tan's death and orders him off the case. Carter is ordered back to Los Angeles, but convinces Lee to return to LA with him.

Carter assures Lee that every large criminal operation has a rich white man behind it; in this case, he believes that man is Steven Reign, a billionaire Los Angeles hotelier he saw acting suspiciously at Tan’s party. Staking out Reign Towers, they spot Isabella Molina, whom Carter met on Tan’s yacht, receiving a delivery from Hu Li. Mistaking the package for another bomb, Lee and Carter try to intervene, but Molina reveals she is an undercover U.S. Secret Service agent, looking into Reign's laundering of $100 million in superdollars.

Lee and Carter visit Kenny, an ex-con who runs a gambling den in the back of his Chinese restaurant. He tells them about a customer with a suspicious amount of hundred-dollar bills, which Carter confirms are Reign's counterfeits. They trace the money to a bank, where they are captured by Hu Li. Taken to Las Vegas in a Triad truck, Lee and Carter escape, realizing that Reign is laundering the $100 million through his new Red Dragon Casino.

At the Red Dragon, Molina points Lee to the engraving plates used to print the counterfeit money, while Carter creates a distraction to help Lee sneak past the security. Hu Li captures Lee, taping an explosive in his mouth before bringing him to Tan, who faked his death. When Tan departs, Molina tries to arrest Hu Li but is shot, and Lee removes the explosive before it detonates, evacuating the casino.

Carter fights Hu Li, accidentally knocking her out, while Lee pursues Tan. In the penthouse, Reign prepares to escape with the plates but Tan fatally stabs him. Lee and Carter confront Tan, who admits to killing Lee's father. In the ensuing scuffle, Tan falls to his death when Lee kicks him out of the window. Hu Li enters with a time bomb, forcing Lee and Carter to escape on a makeshift zip line as Hu Li dies in the explosion.

Later at the airport, Molina thanks Lee for his work on the case, and kisses him. Planning to go their separate ways, Lee and Carter change their minds when Carter reveals the large amount of money he won at the casino, and the pair head to New York City to indulge themselves.

Music[edit]

Lalo Schifrin returned to compose the score for the film. According to him, 'The music for Rush Hour 2 is completely different from Rush Hour. The first 20–30 seconds of the main title is a reprise of the music from Rush Hour – but that's it.'^[7] He said that Ratner had requested a 'symphonic score', which he incidentally found suitable for Rush Hour 2:

For the sequel, he asked me to do a symphonic score. It was bigger than life – like an epic score. I ignored the comedy – the actors took care of that. I played to the chases and the danger. It's a serious score in the sense of an 'epic' score, like Raiders of the Lost Ark or an Errol Flynn film. Also, you must realize that the symphony orchestra allows many more possibilities. Mozart didn't need a rhythm section to 'drive'. I was able to create a lot of energy without the use of drums and electric guitars and all that.^[7]

Schifrin performed the Rush Hour 2 score with the Hollywood Studio Symphony. Varèse Sarabande released its album on compact disc in August 2001.^[8] In a 2001 interview with Dan Goldwasser for Soundtrack.Net, Schifrin was asked whether he would score Rush Hour 3, and he stated: 'Oh, I'm not a prophet!'^[7] By 2007, Schifrin began composing the score for Rush Hour 3,^[9] which, as of 2018, is his last motion picture score.^[10]
