I saw 48 Hrs. a little while back, it was a fun action movie with some decent comedic elements to it as well thanks to Eddie Murphy. So while I was renting some movies, I decided to see the sequel, Another 48 Hrs. I was curious where they would take the story and if Eddie Murphy still had it. Unfortunately, this is where Eddie's career was going down hill and Nick Nolte's was doing just fine. The only problem I had with this film is that it seemed like it was just an attempt to get more money, it was still a fun sequel though, it's definitely worth a look. Even though it was predictable, but once you've seen a lot of action movies, you've almost seen them all, you know? But Another 48 Hrs. has comedy, action, and our favorite team back. Eddie Murphy could have been funnier, but it's all good with this action packed sequel.
Jack is back and he's fighting a criminal named the Iceman who just keeps disappearing before he can get to him. It's getting so bad that Jack will loose his job over this and possibly go to jail for missing money that he's been accused of taking. He needs the street smart Reggie once again who is in jail still for a crime he claims he didn't commit. But it's hard when they are fighting since Jack hasn't visited Reggie in a while, but they work together to find the Iceman, but they discover that one of the men that works with Jack just might be a bad cop.
Anothre 48 Hrs. is fun, but I think it could have had more comedy. But like I said, unfortunately Eddie Murphy's career was going down hill at the point where this sequel was made. But I loved the scene where Jack gets into a bar fight and Reggie has to help him out, I loved how he was pointing the gun at one of the fighters, and the guy calls Reggie's bluff with the gun, but Reggie shoots his knee to prove to him. Unrealistic, but funny on Eddie Murphy's part. Another 48 Hrs. is worth a look, it has really cool action scenes and all in all, it's a good action movie. Let's just hope that Eddie's ego will calm down, hopefully he'll get more good roles in the future.
5/10
