Beloved Comedy Trilogy Just Hit Netflix (And Is Already Dominating the Top 10)

For over two decades now, it’s been a while since I teamed up with Chris Tucker for another “Rush Hour” movie, but that hasn’t stopped these action-packed comedies from staying incredibly popular. There’s always speculation and anticipation about a possible fourth installment, and fans just can’t seem to get enough of the original trilogy. Even in today’s streaming era, “Rush Hour” remains as relevant as ever!

On New Year’s Day, the “Rush Hour” movie series became available on Netflix, one of the major attractions for their lineup in 2021. Given its past success, it was anticipated that “Rush Hour” would continue to perform well on Netflix. However, what surprised everyone was the trilogy’s sudden appearance at the top of Netflix’s rankings.

On Sunday’s Netflix list of daily changing Top 10 Movies, approximately one-third of the spots are taken by the movie trilogy “Rush Hour”. All three movies from this series are featured on the list, with the fourth film ranking as the fourth most popular overall. It is quite uncommon for a film series to have such a strong influence over the Top 10 Movies lineup simultaneously.
