Description
Buddy-cop movie starring Ice Cube and Kevin Hart. Fast-talking school security guard Ben Barber (Hart) wants to marry his girlfriend Angela (Tika Sumpter). However, before he can do so, he needs to get the blessing of her brother, street-smart cop James Payton (Ice Cube). The only thing is, James thinks Ben is a good-for-nothing loser with no real prospects and therefore unable to support his sister. Ben, eager to impress, applies for entry to the police academy, and upon his acceptance James agrees to take him on a ride along to show him what life on the force is really like. It isn't long before the two personalities clash but when Ben finds out that James is working on a case to bring down Atlanta crime lord Omar (Laurence Fishburne), he sees an opportunity to prove he's worthy. Can Ben show his potential brother-in-law that he has what it takes to be a successful cop and family man?

- Overview
- For the past two years, high-school security guard Ben has been trying to show decorated APD detective James that he's more than just a video-game junkie who's unworthy of James' sister, Angela. When Ben finally gets accepted into the academy, he thinks he's earned the seasoned policeman's respect and asks for his blessing to marry Angela. Knowing that a ride along will demonstrate if Ben has what it takes to take care of his sister, James invites him on a shift designed to scare the hell out of the trainee. But when the wild night leads them to the most notorious criminal in the city, James will find that his new partner's rapid-fire mouth is just as dangerous as the bullets speeding at it.
- Synopsis
- A motor-mouthed high-school security guard joins his prospective brother-in-law, a decorated police detective, on a shift along the mean streets of Atlanta and learns that life on the force is no picnic in this action comedy from director Tim Story (FANTASTIC FOUR, THINK LIKE A MAN). Ben (Kevin Hart) longs to marry his gorgeous girlfriend Angela (Tika Sumpter), but before he can propose he must first get the approval of her tough-as-nails brother James (Ice Cube), a top detective in the Atlanta Police Department. When aspiring police officer Ben gets accepted into the academy, he finally musters the courage to ask for James' blessings. Still unconvinced that Ben has what it takes to provide for his beloved baby sister, James invites Ben on a ride-along through the toughest parts of town. At first James' efforts to terrify the young trainee go perfectly according to plan, but once the pair incur the wrath of Atlanta's most feared criminal, all bets are off. John Leguizamo and Laurence Fishburne co-star.
