The review of this Movie prepared by Daniel Staebler




Nick Pulovski (Eastwood) is a great street cop with enough sense to handle any task on his own. When a young, cocky, partner (Sheen) is thrown to him tension escalates. The young and the old must team up and hunt down a group of auto thiefs without killing each other first.
