Synopsis

Above the Line

Six struggling Hollywood hopefuls team up for the ultimate comeback: to rob the Academy Awards from the crooked producer who crushed their dreams. But in a town built on make-believe, pulling off the perfect heist might just be the role of their lives.

Rush Hour

When Hong Kong Inspector Lee is summoned to Los Angeles to investigate a kidnapping, the FBI doesn't want any outside help and assigns cocky LAPD Detective James Carter to distract Lee from the case. Not content to watch the action from the sidelines, Lee and Carter form an unlikely partnership and investigate the case themselves.
