I really enjoyed "48 Hrs." Both Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy were great together. Murphy was especially hilarious and Nolte was a rough and tough badass cop. There could not have been a better matched pair!
Fun Fact: 4 of the actors in this movie were in The Warriors; David Patrick Kelly, James Remar, Sonny Landham, who was the police officer in The Warriors that hit Ajax in the gut with the night stick in the park when Ajax was arrested and being handcuffed to the bench and the actor who played Rembrandt, the guy in the parking garage where Luther goes to get the car.
I was serving my 1st National Guard summer camp when I seen this movie. It had just came out. One hell of movie! I've watched it more times than I can count. It is the perfect mix of action and comedy.
I really like how 48 Hours turned out, but now I think I'd have also liked an Eastwood/Pryor version. Eastwood had already proven he could handle Action/Comedy with Any Which Way But Loose, and Pryor really had some comedic chops as well - and certainly wasn't adverse to doing some adlibs either.
Thank goodness they casted Eddie Murphy, I feel he has a lot more versatility in his acting than Richard Pryor does, I was convinced of that when I saw superman III
Nick Nolte was perfect as Cates and his & Eddie's chemistry was great. But I never would've guessed Eddie was only 19 when they started filming. IMO, he looked at least 26.
At my old house, we used to have a 48 Hrs Poster hanging in our TV room when I was a kid long before I was old enough to watch 48 Hrs! It was the first poster you showed us with a Cigar in Eddie Murphy's mouth! Once I was old enough to watch it, I really liked what I saw! It had a great story, great action scenes, and some comedy scenes that made me laugh and giggle! Not only was Eddie Murphy funny but Nick Nolte was really funny too, especially during the scenes where they're punching each other! Also I couldn't stop laughing and giggling at the scene where Frank McRae, who was Sharky in the James Bond movie Licence To Kill, goes on a profanity laced tirade towards Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy! 48 Hrs is a great movie!
I remember when Nick was scheduled to appear on Saturday night live, to promote the movie. But Eddie had to take his place, because Nick was drunk when he got off the plane. And Eddie told the story live, on television that night. Haha
Freebie And The Bean, from 1974, is still the best cop buddy movie, to me. Lots of crazy action & lots of laughs. And, the best car crash scene ever. Anyone, who's seen it, knows what scene I'm talking about. Lol
I love this movie! Eddie Murphy is a riot in this film. Murphy revealed that Nick Nolte was drunk during their promotion of the film and couldn't come on The Johnny Carson Show and SNL.
One of the best of the buddy cop genre. Love Nolte's gruff no nonsense cop. The scene where he tells Murphy he'll take him somewhere nice to get some dinner, and then ends up at a candy vending machine is hysterical. What this movie demonstrates, like city slickers and so many others, is that not every movie needs a sequel. Instead they should have paired Nolte and Murphy in a completely different movie playing completely different types of characters. Surprised you didn't do more information on Sonny Landham who played one of the villains. He's an interesting footnote on film history to be certain.
Walter Hill smashed it with the Warrior's, 48 hours and Southern comfort over a 4 year period the dude was on fire. Red heat and Undisputed are also top notch!
I’ve loved 48hrs. ever since I first saw it back in 1982!! Nolte & Murphy are perfect together.... everything about this movie is top notch - from the direction to music! Thanks for the great video!
"Beating 50 shades of shit out of each other" Minty I have never quite heard it put that way b4 but it works! Will always b one of my all time favorite movies. Great vid! L8r.
I always thought it was just Eddie Murphy Twirling the handcuffs on his index finger as to say I got out of your cuffs and Nick Nolte looking surprised that he escaped from the cuffs
I love this movie. It jump started the careers of Eddie Murphy as an actor and Joel Silver as a producer and even pioneered the buddy cop genre. We wouldn’t even have Lethal Weapon, Rush Hour or Tango & Cash if it wasn’t for 48 Hrs.
I love how Jonathan Banks and James Remar would go on to do “Dexter” even though Banks was only in two episodes. He will always be Mike Ehrmantraut to me.
@@frankschneider6156 Remar definitely played a great villain, but he could do the action hero role fairly well too. He was pretty badass in Quiet Cool.
I haven't seen the Movie in years, but didn't they at least the Nick Nolite Character seemed to like the REgge Character at the end. He said he was the Best Partner he ever had, let him have sex with some girl before he locked him up, etc.
9:22 "Where Murphy is flipping Nolte the bird." If you look closely you can see it's actually his index finger that has the handcuffs around them, not his middle finger.
Yes there were other "buddy cop movies" before 48 Hours, but the other films were straight faced dramas. 48 Hours was "comedy-drama" mix. Generally we associate buddy cop movies with humorous interactions between the lead characters mixed with dramatic story lines, like Lethal Weapon & Bad Boys etc. So on that note it was the 2nd one after Freebie & The Bean (1974)
LOL Haha right! I do remember watching Beverly Hills Cop over and over and over again on summer break eventually being able to recite the entire movie word for word. My brother and I were like parrots im sure our parents hated it.
To try and promote this film, Nick Nolte was slated to host "Saturday Night Live" on December 11, 1982. However, he got sick beforehand and was unable to host, so Eddie Murphy, still being a cast member at the time, had to step in for him. This gave him the distinction of the only person to host SNL while being part of the cast at the same time.
I was introduced to R-Rated movies when I was 15, I walked out of the movie “ Krull” one day and snuck in to the next theater that was showing 48 Hours and was blown away. PG movies were a thing of the past. Movies of the ‘80s were yet to come
I've always wanted a 3rd installment! I'd love to see Nolte and Murphy return for one last pairing as long as there was a great storyline! I love both movies but feel that the second was just slightly better. Perhaps there's hope that whatever reboot is planned can actually bring these two back together one last time!
@@paulbirkbeck1790 he's still acting though despite not quite having the same size but it would still be cool if they could do something one more time before they all get too old.
James Remar , who costarred in 48 Hours, had I think previously worked with Walter Hill in The Warriors. I think David Patrick Hill was in both films too
Extra Fact:When Another 48 Hrs premiered on HBO after being in movie theaters HBO had a sweepstakes where you could’ve won prizes from the movie and if you were the grand prize winner of the sweepstakes you won the car Nick Nolte drove in the movie.I remember it was a 1-900 number to enter the contest.I still have the promo for it on video tape.It seemed cool at the time.
I took a girl on a date to see a double feature. It was 48 Hours and Trading Places. TWO Eddie Murphy movies back to back. We had a BLAST. Eddie Murphy was great in BOTH movies and the rest of the casts were awesome TOO.
Other than "They Live" starring "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and Keith David, the street fight with Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy has got to be a close second for best street fight scene in a movie.
I remember watching Another 48 Hours first then I watched 48 hours...I thought the sequel was pretty good. I like the part where Eddie Murphy is sitting on the bus and the guy on the motorcycle start shooting at him. That's a pretty cool scene. And the main villain on 48 hours is Harry from Dexter that played Dexter's dad and he did a phenomenal job on that show.
Soundtrack - the 48 hours/Commando soundtracks also have a 'brother' -- the soundtrack for "Gorky Park" is equally excellent, and sounds very like the other two.
Thanks Minty! I've been away and what a great video to come back to! I forgot how much of a hit this was. A CLASSIC! I just realized David Patrick Kelly was in Commando too! Sully!
Before Rush Hour, before Lethal Weapon, there was 48 Hours. Here's an underrated modern "buddy cop" classic: The Nice Guys. What a hidden gem, which got little fanfare despite starring Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling. Do yourself a favor whomever is reading this, and check out The Nice Guys!
Well many 80s action movies were fun, but most were crap and only the good ones are really remembered. And even 48hrs (which is undoubtly among the good ones) starts after 40 years to look somewhat dated. It's still fun and watchable, but ... Tbh, Movies like the John Wick series or Den of Thieves are undoubtedly superior to most of their 80s brothers in spirit. Also did Walter Hill make some impressive movies in the 70s (Hard Times, The Warriors, Driver).
Great job with this video. I didn't know about James Horner being involved so thanks for that, it makes sense now that I listen to it. And you're correct about why the sequel failed, part of it was that a very different Eddie Murphy returned a decade later. He came off as disinterested in most of the sequel, likely because he had so many other projects going by that point.
Thank you for pointing out the soundtrack feeling similar to Commando. I try to guess what is on the TV from the other room and guessed Commando but was told it was 48 hours.
Nick Nolte is the upgraded Joe Don Baker. Eddie Murphy is a great impersonator. Walter Hill is the manliest man-movie maker. This movie lacked 2 of 5 elements for a perfect movie, it had comedy, drama and music (Murphy singing Roxanne) but lacked romance and the supernatural. I rate this movie 3/5. Great video, thanks for sharing.
@Commander Keen I concede your point, Joe Don has held up remarkably well over the years. Nick looks like a dumpster fire that was extinguished with latrine water. I guess I meant fame-wise not looks.
Buddy cop movies have been one of my favourite movie genres since I was a kid. Although I hadn't actually seen 48 hours untill this last year. Its inspired so many of my favourites like lethal weapon, Beverly hills cop, bad boys, rush hour, let's be cops etc. All great movies.
Phil Chadwick that’s a interesting comment. Pryor said “i never really connected to Eddie. I found his comedy to be too mean” Murphy says he’s influenced by Pryor but i never saw it. The only thing he took from Pryor in my opinion was his cursing not his vulnerability.
Hugh Jassel that never would’ve happened. Eddie had love and support from his family and was very clear bout where he wanted to go. Everyone thought cuz he was young and famous he would fall into the Prinze, Pryor, Belushi burnout types. He surprised a lot of people. Belushi and Robin Williams offered Eddie cocaine back in the 80s and Eddie declined. Belushi called Eddie a “tight ass”. And yet, Belushi and Williams are gone. Eddie is still alive and well.
lurch321 oh ok. I got u. No. Pryor came along at a time when the country was goin through a lot of changes. His comedy reflected the times. By the time Eddie came along, there was no reason for his comedy to be deep and dark. The 80s were a much lighter time compared to today or the 70s. Hence the type of humor he did. Another thing is, Pryor’s personal screwups were great for his comedy. His true gift was takin pain and makin it funny. Burning up, having a heart attack, drowning in a pool, marital problems, getting punished by your father, etc. are not funny things. He made them funny.
@@ghanasoul Nice quote from Pryor there. I always thought Pryor had a warmth to him, an everyman quality, and I always wanted him to do well. Murphy always came across as mean to me. From what I understand about his behind the camera persona, I can understand that.

But also the supporting cast was stellar with Brion James of Blade Runner and David Patrick Kelley and James Remar from the Warriors cast.
@@frankschneider6156 I absolutely agree with you.
@@frankschneider6156 David Patrick Kelly's character's name in "48 Hrs." was the same as in his previous film, "The Warriors,"
@@frankschneider6156 "The Warriors" was one great film as well! Love that movie!
Fun Fact: 4 of the actors in this movie were in The Warriors; David Patrick Kelly, James Remar, Sonny Landham, who was the police officer in The Warriors that hit Ajax in the gut with the night stick in the park when Ajax was arrested and being handcuffed to the bench and the actor who played Rembrandt, the guy in the parking garage where Luther goes to get the car.
Actually, I think Sonny Landham was the cop in Warriors that Swan threw the nightstick at before fleeing down the underground tunnel....
Greg A I think The Warriors was directed and produced by the same people as 48Hrs.
Actually sonny landham wasnt in warriors bro different actor the cop who hit ajax in the gut
@@lovenotwar598 Sonny Landham was in "The Warriors". Just not in the scene involving James Remar.
They were both directed by Walter Hill.
I was serving my 1st National Guard summer camp when I seen this movie. It had just came out. One hell of movie! I've watched it more times than I can count. It is the perfect mix of action and comedy.
Definitely my favourite Eddie Murphy film. The chemistry between him and Nick Nolte makes it.
I like Beverly Hill Cop better, but this is my second. Shrek is third.
It’s Trading Places for me.
those fight scenes between eddie and nick were some of my favorites
"Class isn't something you buy. Look at you, you've got on a 500-dollar suit and you're still a low-life."
This line rings so much truth today!
Well he had on a cheap ass suit and still looked like a bummy alcoholic asshole
You can put gold on a turd and, not only will it still be a turd, it might end up as a prize on a video game for collecting all of a certain item.
“Yeah but I look good!”
This pairing seemed the most natural out of most "buddy films" imo.
Had they gotten both Clint Eastwood and Richard Pryor to star in "48 Hrs.", that definitely would've been a different movie!
Not that much, I would think.
I really like how 48 Hours turned out, but now I think I'd have also liked an Eastwood/Pryor version. Eastwood had already proven he could handle Action/Comedy with Any Which Way But Loose, and Pryor really had some comedic chops as well - and certainly wasn't adverse to doing some adlibs either.
Damn now you're really making me want to see that movie!
Thank goodness they casted Eddie Murphy, I feel he has a lot more versatility in his acting than Richard Pryor does, I was convinced of that when I saw superman III
The closest we got was the 1990 film "The Rookie",
a buddy cop action film starring Clint Eastwood and Charlie Sheen.
Nick Nolte was perfect as Cates and his & Eddie's chemistry was great. But I never would've guessed Eddie was only 19 when they started filming. IMO, he looked at least 26.
@t-boog2173 how did you come up with 26? Wouldn't it make more sense to say mid 20s? Lol

He did, but he just said Nick was too sick to come on the show. I think the joke was understood in there with Nick's rep.
Eddie hosted SNL while he was still a cast member 😆
At least Eddie gave the SNL audience what they wanted. One of the stars of "48 Hrs." was going to host the show!
That Richard Pryor and Clint Eastwood poster is priceless!
Yet, I'm glad they went with Murphy and Nolte.
Freebie And The Bean, from 1974, is still the best cop buddy movie, to me. Lots of crazy action & lots of laughs. And, the best car crash scene ever. Anyone, who's seen it, knows what scene I'm talking about. Lol

A movie Clint Eastwood directed.
I love how Jonathan Banks and James Remar would go on to do “Dexter” even though Banks was only in two episodes. He will always be Mike Ehrmantraut to me.
Had Remar stayed away from the coke, he could have become one of Hollywood's greatest villains on the same level as Gary Oldman and Alan Rickman.

Yes he is. Thought I was the only one who noticed that.
I have to say, I love 48hrs and the sequel. I'm a sucker for the buddy cop movie anyway. Tango and Cash was awesome...
1982 in my opinion is one of the best years for movies.

''Jack? Tell me a story..'' 'F*ck you!" "Oh, that's one of my favourites..''
A key thing in this movie that helps it work is how BRUTAL that opening shoot out is establishing the villains in the film as really bad dudes
Thank you for pointing out the soundtrack feeling similar to Commando. I try to guess what is on the TV from the other room and guessed Commando but was told it was 48 hours.
AND AFTER THAT YOU HAVE TO MAKE : ANOTHER 48 HOURS VIDEO!!!!!!GOOD JOB!!!!
Academy Award winner James Horner composed the score to the movie.
It's the score that ruins this film for me, though... my apologies if you love it.
To me it's terrible; just early 80's Casio noises.
Devo Davis But that was the sound of the time and also fitted with the neon digital typeface of the title. 🔅🔆
Great timing on this upload! Watched 48hrs. movies last week for the first time in like 15 years.
"This your car man?" "Yeah." "Lok like you bought it off wunna the brothers,"
'The Last Sky Blue Caddilac"
Nice one, Minty. Fun movie, overall.
Hey Minty
You should do a top ten list of the best movie posters with their alternate and one with the 10 worst with alternates
Nick Nolte is the upgraded Joe Don Baker. Eddie Murphy is a great impersonator. Walter Hill is the manliest man-movie maker.
This movie lacked 2 of 5 elements for a perfect movie, it had comedy, drama and music (Murphy singing Roxanne) but lacked romance and the supernatural. I rate this movie 3/5.
Great video, thanks for sharing.
@Commander Keen I concede your point, Joe Don has held up remarkably well over the years. Nick looks like a dumpster fire that was extinguished with latrine water. I guess I meant fame-wise not looks.
Hey, obviously this movie had romance. Didn't you see how Nolte and Murphy look at each other ? That's pure bromance
Both 48 Hours and Another 48 Hours were excellent. I rated them 4 stars (worth buying and watching several times)
The Black Russian bit and the Roxanne bit are my favorites 👍👍😸
I WAS BLUFFIN', MAN!
Eddie Murphy was 19 in this movie?!!
Holy shit I'm old
He's always came across older than he was. Something about his attitude or maturity made me think he was in his 30s in the 1980's.
Listen: He was great! Young, old.......
I hadn't heard of 48 hours until the sequel came out. On a side note, my 48 hours Blu-Ray doesn't have any of those posters/covers.
Buddy cop movies have been one of my favourite movie genres since I was a kid. Although I hadn't actually seen 48 hours untill this last year. Its inspired so many of my favourites like lethal weapon, Beverly hills cop, bad boys, rush hour, let's be cops etc. All great movies.
I understand what they mean about Murphy’s humour. He has a harshness to him that Pryor doesn’t have which isn’t funny to a lot of people.
Phil Chadwick that’s a interesting comment. Pryor said “i never really connected to Eddie. I found his comedy to be too mean” Murphy says he’s influenced by Pryor but i never saw it. The only thing he took from Pryor in my opinion was his cursing not his vulnerability.
Hugh Jassel that never would’ve happened. Eddie had love and support from his family and was very clear bout where he wanted to go. Everyone thought cuz he was young and famous he would fall into the Prinze, Pryor, Belushi burnout types. He surprised a lot of people. Belushi and Robin Williams offered Eddie cocaine back in the 80s and Eddie declined. Belushi called Eddie a “tight ass”. And yet, Belushi and Williams are gone. Eddie is still alive and well.
lurch321 ha. Pryor was doing concert films long b4 anyone knew who Eddie was?
lurch321 oh ok. I got u. No. Pryor came along at a time when the country was goin through a lot of changes. His comedy reflected the times. By the time Eddie came along, there was no reason for his comedy to be deep and dark. The 80s were a much lighter time compared to today or the 70s. Hence the type of humor he did. Another thing is, Pryor’s personal screwups were great for his comedy. His true gift was takin pain and makin it funny. Burning up, having a heart attack, drowning in a pool, marital problems, getting punished by your father, etc. are not funny things. He made them funny.
@@ghanasoul Nice quote from Pryor there. I always thought Pryor had a warmth to him, an everyman quality, and I always wanted him to do well. Murphy always came across as mean to me. From what I understand about his behind the camera persona, I can understand that.
RIP Charlie Murphy
Who?
@Turd Ferguson He was a great comedian & I don't believe Eddie would have reached the height he reached w/o Charlie.. RIP Charlie
@Turd Ferguson but yes.. some people are intentionally rude

Turd Ferguson no I wasn’t aware of him. I will look him up to see what happen.
Watched this opening weekend on times Square nyc. Everyone cheered when Eddie left that bar. We all knew a star was born.
Thank you for correcting the phrase "Cop Buddy" to "Buddy Cop" in the super throughout the video.
