Another 48 Hrs.
For the past four years, San Francisco cop Jack Cates has been after an unidentified drug kingpin who calls himself the Ice Man. Jack finds a picture that proves that the Ice Man has put a price on the head of Reggie Hammond, who is scheduled to be released from prison on the next day.
Critics Sentiment
Inspector Ben Kehoe revealed as the Ice Man kingpin
Jack Cates pursues the mysterious Ice Man kingpin
The film jumps significantly when Kehoe is revealed as the Ice Man, rising from mediocre plot development to genuine surprise and engagement.
Another 48 Hrs. starts with familiar, muddled setup that critics found uninspired, but gains momentum through Murphy and Nolte's chemistry in the middle act. The film peaks with its effective villain reveal twist before settling into a competent but predictable action finale.
