Synopsis
Another 48 Hrs. (1990) is Walter Hill's action comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Years on, San Francisco cop Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) springs fast-talking Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy) from prison once more — two days, plenty of bullets.
Cates has spent four years chasing a faceless drug lord who calls himself the Iceman, and his case is falling apart fast enough to cost him his badge. Then he learns someone has put a price on Reggie's head right as Reggie is due for release. The hunt is already on: a biker gang, a bus that rolls over, a Porsche shredded to scrap. The pair get exactly forty-eight hours to name the man behind it all without killing each other first.
Hill brought back the duo from 1982's 48 Hrs., the film that launched Murphy's screen career. The sequel coasts less on plot than on the thing people actually show up for: Nolte and Murphy needling each other, hard-edged shootouts, and the director's dry, mean streak of humor. A solid pick for anyone who likes their old-school action loud. Stream Another 48 Hrs. (1990) online on iFILM.
