Jackie Chan's new action comedy Rush Hour 3 has been banned in China, despite his status as a national hero. The Hong Kong-born actor's film has prompted controversy in recent weeks over a scene where a family involved in organized crime visit Paris. The association with Triad gang members reportedly angered Chinese authorities. But the state-run Film Bureau insists the decision to block the movie's release was taken for commercial reason, even though the first two movies in the franchise were box office hits.

Not a big Rush Hour fan, I like his movies with Owen Wilson, Shanghai Knights and...the other one
