(action, comedy, crime, drama, thriller)
For the past four years, San Francisco cop Jack Cates has been after an unidentified drug kingpin who calls himself the "Ice Man". At the Hunter's Point Raceway, Jack confronts Tyrone Burroughs and Arthur Brock. Jack kills Brock in self defense, but Burroughs escapes, and Jack is in danger of going to prison because Brock's gun can't be found. Jack finds a picture that proves that the Ice Man has put a price on the head of Reggie Hammond, who is scheduled to be released from prison on the next day. Jack tries to convince Reggie to help him clear his name and find the Ice Man, but Reggie says he won't help unless Jack gives Reggie the $500,000 that Jack has been holding on to for Reggie. Jack refuses to give Reggie the money unless Reggie helps him. After the bus that is transporting Reggie away from the prison is forced to crash by two bikers and Jack gets shot by the same two bikers, Jack forces Reggie to help him by having the hospital release Reggie into his custody. Reggie recognized one of the bikers as Richard "Cherry" Ganz, the brother of Albert Ganz, the escaped convict Jack killed years ago. Jack got shot because Cherry wants revenge for Albert's death, and Cherry and his partner Willie Hickok are the hitmen who have been hired to kill Reggie. Burroughs, who works for the Ice Man, was trying to hire Brock as insurance, just in case Cherry and Hickok fail. Blake Wilson, the head of the Internal Affairs division, obviously doesn't like Jack, because Wilson will stop at nothing to prosecute Jack for manslaughter in Brock's death, and it turns out that the Ice Man put a price on Reggie's head because Reggie knows who the Ice Man is someone Jack never expected it to be.

Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy return to the track late that is both
Nolte and Murphy, teaming up again when the Iceman
Nolte appears on the wanted list
once again tons of action occurs but this time the excitement se ha ido
and all that remains is a number of police thriller that takes only a few moments that
decent save from the stack of turkey. Nolte and Murphy
still have chemistry but for some reason is not so much as
predecessor.
Another 48 Hrs. (1990) is another sequel. During the 80
any movie he made the slightest of gains made a sequel. For one reason,
to make even more money. But many producers did not make another dimension
outside the dynamics of the previous film and stuck with a sequel
cost two or three times more than the original movie,
Another 48 Hrs. was a good example. The only reason films produced multiple sequels
raked in the dough was the film became cheaper, low
general means more opportunities for profit. When you pour millions
a movie and expect to make a buck, two out of three times
you're losing your shirt.
The film has a "rush to produce" feel. I felt the same way after seeing
Scary Movie 2. The director was what I wanted to
work with them. I can not blame Walter Hill because he did a pretty watchable film
. The problem is that this movie did not need a sequel. The final results
is a remake of the first film. Neither more nor less. This film was made
during the peak of Eddie Murphy's long period of exposure. Like so many actors
, was a victim of its own excess. Nick Nolte
seems to be going through the motions for resolutions, while Eddie Murphy has to "see me"
thing going.
Overall not a bad movie. But if you're expecting something different
then see elsewhere. Maybe the filmmakers should have seen the first film
again before they wrote the screenplay.
Would have helped a bit.
Recommended for fans of the first film.
