Episode 279 of Tom Clark's 6M Podcast is a review of 48 Hours. Tom and Phil Lindsey break down the 1982 action-comedy classic starring Nick Nolte as hard-nosed San Francisco cop Jack Cates and Eddie Murphy in his explosive feature film debut as wisecracking convict Reggie Hammond. The guys dive into the film's 48-hour race to catch escaped killers, the gritty tone that separates it from later buddy-cop imitators, and the electric chemistry that launched Murphy into superstardom. Does this movie hold up today and where does it rank in Murphy's filmography? Dive into that and a lot more!
