When hardened cop Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) is forced to team up with fast-talking convict Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy), they have just 48 hours to track down a pair of dangerous criminals. With Cates’ no-nonsense attitude and Reggie’s street smarts, the mismatched duo races against time through the streets of San Francisco, leading to high-stakes action and unforgettable comedic moments.

Directed by Walter Hill, ’48 Hrs.’ is considered one of the first and most influential buddy-cop action comedies. The film launched Eddie Murphy’s film career, combining sharp dialogue, thrilling chases, and explosive shootouts to create a genre-defining classic.
