For the viewers of the pilot who didnt see the movie (why are you doing this to yourselves?
), dont worry it wont matter because the show is hitting reset.
(EW gave it a C- in the magazine.)

Here are the biggest deja vu moments in theRush Hourpremiere:
1.
Was it that essential to find another blond Chinese man?
Not sure that would have been a deal breaker for fans.
An important woman in Lees life leads him to L.A.
In the movie, the kidnapping of Lees boss daughter prompted him to go to L.A. to save her.
Carter cant be tamed by a partner
Detective Carter is a lone wolf in all worlds.
A near-identical investigation
This shot-for-shot remake continues as Carter and Lees off-book investigation leads us to three familiar locations.
Instead they go re-enact another scene from the movie and get vital information at the prison from Carlos.
Bonus: Popular lines riffed from the film
What did you think of the premiere?
Was EWs C- review fair or too generous?
Now with the plot from the first movie over, can the show do its own decent interesting take?
