Summary: 48 Hrs (1982)
Review: This film is one of Eddie's funniest movies, Nolte was good also, they both carried the film all the way, what really took the cake was the alley fight scene, and another memorable scene was red neck bar scene. I'd say this is Eddie's second best, the first being Beverly Hills Cop.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a Riot!
Review: This is a film that will have you laughing from beginning to end as it transforms that "good cop teams up with a villan" theme. The good cop in this film (Nolte) isn't actually all that good, and the Villan (Murphy) isn't all that bad. It seems they both may just end up in the wrong place at the wrong time often.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful
Review: This is Eddie Murphy in is prime, when he was at the height of his acting career. He is so wonderful in this movie. He steals the show from Nick Nolte.

Summary: This movie rocks!
Review: This is maybe the best movie I have ever seen. I was laughing so hard I think I developed a two-pack. Walter Hill is the best movie producer in history!!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Movie
Review: This was a funny movie and an action movie at the same time. I have this one taed it is great. Eddie murphy brings out his best ever. I also recommend the hit sequel titled Another 48 hours.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An excellent Cop/Buddy Film.
Review: When a Escape Convict (James Remar) tries to get back the money, he has stoled from a Fast-Talking Con Man (Eddie Murphy). A cop on the Edge (Nick Nolte) lets the con man out for 48 Hours to find the Escape Convict and the money from the Con Man.

Directed by Walter Hill (Trespass, Last Man Standing) brings one of the best Cop/Buddy films. One of the highest grossing films of 1982. Engentic Performance by Murphy. An great action film. Grade:A-.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Film That Launched Murphy's Career
Review: When i look back at the films of the 1980's "48 Hours" has to
be one of the best and most memorable films of that particular
time periord. What is shown here is a slam bang mix of action
and rasict comedy when Murphy is sprung out of jail on a weekend
pass to help a tough no-nonsense cop(Played by Nick Nolte in his
good attempt at playing these type of roles) in tracking down
Murphey's ex-partner who is ine search of hidden loot from a
previous heist. The chemistry between Murphey & Nolte is realistic and times very funny. This is the film that pretty much
started the whole "buddy buddy" craze which was very popular back
in the eighties especally films like THE LETHAL WEAPON films
The standout performaces was when Murphy masquarades as cop
in a local redneck bar. Very funny film and is indeed one of
Eddie Murphy's best.

Summary: some artifacts
Review: Wonderful movie, needless to say. I just wanted to comment on the DVD version. The sound is quite good, better than I expected from reading the Widescreen Review summary. But the digital artifacts are actually distracting, and my experience with DVDs is that this is pretty rare. Even the less-picky out there might be annoyed in spots by this one.
