David Ackerman (Charlie Sheen) is a new detective in the LAPD. He's haunted by the guilt over the death of his brother. Nick Pulovski (Clint Eastwood) is a detective investigating Strom (Raul Julia)'s car thief ring. His partner is killed by Strom and the case is transfered to homicide. He is given Ackerman as his new partner and he refuses to let go of the case against Strom.
It's a buddy cop drama with a lifeless buddy cop relationship. Eastwood is rehashing his Dirty Harry persona. Sheen doesn't play off of it well. He's too cold. It lacks humor and it lacks chemistry. There are some fine action stunt work but there isn't much else.
