Description

Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy make one of the most unusual and entertaining teams ever in Walter Hill's roller-coaster thriller, 48 Hrs. Nolte is a rough-edged cop after two vicious cop-killers. He can't do it without the help of smooth and dapper Murphy, who is serving time for a half-million dollar robbery. This unlikely partnership trades laughs as often as punches as both pursue their separate goals: Nolte wants the villains; Murphy wants his money and some much-needed female companionship. Watch for Murphy's hilarious scene in a redneck country-western bar-you'll want to see it again and again.

    This is an overwrought formulaic buddy picture starring one guy who is annoying and another guy who has a sewer mouth. If you want to see a Murphy cop movie, see Beverly Hills Cop.

    Ok, so the plot is not supposed to be good, right? But neither is the dialogue. I mean, it's just not funny! Nolte is lame; Murphy is not at his best. Beverly Hills Cop is funny. This just isn't. The dialogue seems forced and sounds unrealistic. The movie feels really dated. I started watching TV in the middle of it….
  • ehhh check out the sequel

    the sequel is far superior to this one....i just cannot like this movie because it does not care about its own story...it just brushes the story off of its sholders only to focus on the comedy and its sometimes mediocre action...BUT because its 1982...its forgivable ...to an extent
  • still one of my favorites

    Nolte and Murphy at the beginning of their run. A good combo of dirty harry meets SNL.
