"Nolte and Murphy are good, and their dialogue is good, too -- quirky and funny." - Roger Ebert
In this enormously popular comedy from the unlikely team of Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy comes a full fledged comedic assault. Hard boiled cop Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) temporarily releases the street smart and quick witted criminal Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy) from prison to help him find a murderer loose on the streets of San Francisco.
