More a buddy than a cop film, at least in the sense the crime plot barely matters, but the sleazy, sharp, violent interactions between the two leads as they follow these vicious outlaw men. It's amazingly constructed within small universes (the loud precint with everyone talking at the same time; redneck and soul, black bar; their different yet sexist approach to women) where these characters duel-- from funny dialogues to bursts of violence -- rathen than a formal narrative. What a gem.

Nolte and Murphy don't really have any chemistry despite this being one of the origin texts of buddy cop movies, so most of the appeal is the setting of 1980's San Francisco, James Remar's scowl, and freewheeling racial epithets. I'm sad we didn't get Nick Nolte gravelly intoning "jigaboo".

2020 RE-WATCH: They sure don't make 'em like they used to! Racism, misogyny, sexism, homophobia, toxic masculinity...this film has it all! Show this to your local SJW and watch their tiny brains implode. The best thing about this was the practical stunts. No green screen here...just ram a bus into the car with your actors in it and keep those cameras rolling. I expected more laughs from this, but chuckled only once. Unless we're talking about Murphy's stunt double which looked nothing like him.

48 Hrs has aged, but it's a testament to Hill's superior craftsmanship that it's still enjoyable. The story of a cop and a criminal (or another cop) whose relationship begins on tense terms but later develops into one of bedgrudging respect is well worn out, but the unexpected pairing of Nolte and Murphy was truly inspired, and their chemistry is unbeatable in the buddy cop genre, even after 3 decades. Hill strikes the right balance between action and comedy without dulling its hard boiled edge.
