SHOWTIME (2002)

Detective Mitch Preston (Robert De Niro) is a hard working detective for the LAPD who cares about the job and the responsibility that comes with it.  When a drug bust goes bad Mitch is ordered to work with a TV station that wants to make a reality cop show in order to prevent a $10 million law suit.  The incompetent Trey Sellers (Eddie Murphy), who only cares about his acting career, is going to be his sidekick.  These two characters face a new threat on the streets, which can be extremely fatal to the police force.  Showtime is an humorous action comedy with contrasting characters which add to the entertainment.
