Hard Way

Great blend of action and comedy. There's only one way these two are going to get along...

An action film star researching a role is allowed to tag along with a hardboiled New York cop, who finds him superficial and irritating.

'The Hard Way' blends action and comedy perfectly. It is a very funny film, but also a great film for action-lovers. Michael J.Fox plays an actor who wants to learn how to play a cop in his next film, so he is assigned to work with James Woods. The combination confront some good and funny situations while James Woods can't stand Michael J.Fox. There is a good speech about how many takes (chances) a cop gets to get it right and how many an actor gets. The climax at the end is great, as is the location. This film does not disappoint and delivers another buddy cop film with a difference. One of the cops doesn't like the other.

Genre: Action / Comedy

Film is rated:  R
