Synopsis: 48 HRS. (1982)
Synopis: Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) is a tough, super-jaded cop who springs a hard luck robber, Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy), from jail for two days to help nab his former partners. The two men form a kind of friendship (based on mutual hatred) as they chase a trio of remorseless villains through the streets of San Francisco and Cates finds that Hammond's streetwise method of finding the criminals is possibly even more effective than his own by-the-book police procedures. Rounded characters and crackling comedy balance out this this box-office hit. A sequel, ANOTHER 48 HOURS, was produced in 1990.Features: 48 HRS. (1982)

Pros: Murphy's debut is a solid hit.
Cons: Nolte's car is a junker.
Eddie Murphy & Nick Nolte feed off each others acting as they investigate a murder crime in the climate of San Francisco's rolling streets and foggy nights.
