In a story full of action, Nick Lang's life continues as a policeman and aspires to go as a reporter to New York to crack down on crimes. Lieutenant John Moss is thrilled by his new partner who quickly stirs his style on the street. But when it comes to communicating with beautiful Susan, the Lt can do much worse than listening to Nick's advice. In a set of dramatic events.
An underrated buddy flick with an original twist and some outstanding stunt work.

Surprisingly likable buddy action-comedy, thanks in no small part to James Woods and Michael J. Fox.

Utterly unremarkable, but harmless and not without its charms.

There is nothing very remarkable about The Hard Way, except for its comic energy, but the energy of this movie is everything, reminding me of the wisecracking, hard-boiled screwball comedies of the 1940s.
