Review

Unlikely allies are often the most effective teammates and also tend to be amusing. The white cop and black crook who careen and wax obscene throughout the motorcycle, car, and bus chases, fatal shootings, climactic explosions, and wry macho postures of Another 48 Hrs. (1990) are natural match-ups precisely because their differences mesh like a dash of ying with a pinch of yang. Another 48 Hrs. adheres to the premise that if something is wildly successful the first time around, try it again. So once more a weathered cracker of a San Francisco cop enlists the aid of a sly but imprisoned African American grifter to track down and neutralize a master criminal whose evil is unbounded. The moral of the story? The cleverest smart ass always wins.
