A solid second part that is still good entertainment. Unfortunately, like ever so often, 4 times the budget is spend on not strictly required action scenes, leaving less time for a decent story. Still Ok, but the first was definitely better.

Murphy and Nolte are together again for Another 48 HRS., a thrilling action packed adventure. As Reggie’s prison release date approaches Ganz’s bother comes looking for revenge, but detective Cates gets to him first and enlists his help in finding the mysterious crime figure known as the Iceman; who put out the hit on Reggie. The plot’s a little less contrived this time, and the storytelling’s fairly solid. Additionally, the action’s especially well-shot and adds a lot of intensity to the film. Featuring a stronger cast and more action, Another 48 HRS. outdoes the original.

A bit weak and the "conflict" between Nolte and Murphy was pretty convoluted (no reason for Cates to hold the money over Reggie's head to help with his investigation) but the action was okay including an over-the-top gun battle finale with a ton of broken glass everywhere. It's okay as a time-waster More

You got framed. That's what every convict says!

The theme tune says it all really, the boys are back in town. Nolte and Murphy are back together as cop and convict wading through a plot as lazy as it gets. Walter Hill directs once again and it's only his action scenes that stop this from being an More
