    • Trivia
      Burt Reynolds suffered a serious accident and had his jaw broken when he was hit in the face with a metal chair while filming a fight scene on this movie. Reynolds was restricted to a liquid diet and lost over thirty pounds by the time this movie wrapped. The accident had dire consequences for Reynolds' next movie project, "Stick (1985)." In that movie, Reynolds looked underweight, weak, and thin, and this condition was because of this accident. Apparently, the accident led to Reynolds becoming addicted to painkillers.
    • Goofs
      In the scene where Lt. Speer breaks into the mobster's home to get the slug upon which to run ballistics the mobster asks Speer if Speer has a warrant. The movie takes place prior to 1934 and the repeal of prohibition. There was no requirement for police to have warrants to search citizens' property or to seize such property until the 1940's.
    • Quotes

      Mike Murphy: [Speer has silently entered Murphy's office] I didn't hear you knock, Lieutenant.

      Lt. Speer: What a relief. I thought I must be going deaf.

    Dirty Harry meets Cop and a Half

    I didn't find this movie all that bad. It is merely mediocre. Unfortunately there is nothing in this movie that we haven't seen dozens of times before. Burt is sophomoric and Clint is stereotypical Clint. Good TV movie but not really worth renting unless you have seen everything else.
