- Jack Cates is a cop who doesn't exactly play by the rules and is not a team player. He works alone. When he runs into two cops who are going to arrest someone for a misdemeanor, he joins them. When they knock on the door, they're shot at. Eventually Jack comes face to face with them and when one of them has his gun trained on the other cop, the other guy tells Jack to give up his gun which he does. He then shoots the cop and tries to shoot Jack but misses. Later part of the department thinks Jack was a coward for giving up his gun and the others think that Jack's wild ways got the cops who was with him killed. Jack learns that the guy who told him to give up his gun is an escaped convict and the other guy was the one who busted him out. Jack also learns he's been killing his former associates. Jack learns that another associate, Reggie Hammond is in prison. Jack goes to see Hammond; initially Hammond doesn't want to help until he learns of the man's escape but insists that Jack has to get him out to help with him. Jack does and Hammond takes Jack all over town hoping to find the guy but Jack suspects Hammond is holding back.
- Oddball cop and tough guy, Jack Cates is the only survivor of a cop shooting and in hunting down the murderer collects Reggie Hammond from jail for 48 hours. Hammond is oddly motivated to help. The killer is searching for his stash of cash. Cates and Hammond who have the Black-white, cop-crook thing to work out make surprisingly good partners as they navigate through the city looking for their suspect.
- Walter Hill's "48 HRS" is highly regarded as one of the best cop-buddy movies ever to grace the screen. Why? Well for starters you have a director who knows exactly how to turn his own tense yet hilarious screenplay (co-written with Roger Spottiswoode, Larry Gross and Steven E. De Souza) into a wild ride full of riotous comedy and abundant action, gunplay and violence.<br/><br/>Art Director John Vallone has fashioned some foreboding sets in which several nervy scenes unfold, while D.P. Ric Waite captures all the goings on with style, giving "48 HRS" a realistic edge. Then there's the editing team of Freeman Davies, Mark Warner and Billy Weber who maintain the pic's fast tempo without a problem.<br/><br/>Of course the obvious reason for this movie's success is the matching up of newcomer Eddie Murphy with rough, tough Nick Nolte. The pair exchange no beg pardons as they attempt to join forces (cop and con) in order to apprehend two desperate crims who have shot prison guards and police officers in trying to avoid capture. A sublime teaming indeed! Watching Nolte and Murphy engage in verbal and physical tete-a-tetes is a real pleasure and provides both much of "48 HRS" entertainment and almost all of its comedy.<br/><br/>Nick Nolte is always at his best in the 'tough guy who just might be a person underneath role', while Eddie Murphy's film debut is a delight, his trademark performance still being one of his very best. Nobody does man with an attitude like Eddie.<br/><br/>James Horner provides the score.<br/><br/>Sunday, June 11, 1995 - Video
- I can understand why '48 Hours' worked during its time. However today, after 1000s of buddy movies, '48 Hours' feels dated. The story has been tried and tested numerous times thereafter. It doesn't have much to offer today and the execution isn't anything outstanding either but this is among the 'pioneer' buddy films. However the dialogues are proof of some fine writing. The highlight of '48 Hours' is obviously Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy who are terrific together. It is their scenes, whether action or comedy, that you leave with. Murphy already shows signs of a gifted comedian but he also seems to draw a comedic side from a more experienced actor like Nick Nolte (who is also excellent as the tough cop). Thanks to them '48 Hours' features a hilarious sequence at a rednecks bar and this is one of the funniest moments on film. Even though '48 Hours' may look outdated, it is worth the watch alone for Murphy and Nolte. I still give it a thumbs up over wannabes like 'Rush Hour'.
- Together Cates and Hammond take a thrill-a-minute trip through the San Francisco underworld and along the way develop one of the 1980s' more interesting cinematic buddy pairings.
- No he is not. The character from this movie has the same name, and both characters are played by <a href="/name/nm0446314/">David Patrick Kelly</a>, but he is not the character from "The Warriors". a5c7b9f00b
