A buddy cop film where a detective gets stuck having a movie star tag along. The Hard Way is goofy but the stars make it worth watching.

Totally agree with the other comment. Its a buddy cop film of the 90s with both actors giving the best out of them. Don't expect laugh out loud moments but the movie has its moments and delivers good the cliche.

Decent script, buddy cop love to hate action with a Michael J Fox in a role he rarely gets to play. It's fun, its stupid. LL Cool J in his first NYPD role?
