- Synopsis:
- Nick Lang (Michael J Fox) is a popular movie star who desperately wants to break out of his "nice guy" screen image. Believing he'll land a role as a tough homicide detective if he can hang out with the real thing, Lang leaves Hollywood to spend a few weeks on the streets of New York with detective John Moss (James Woods). A gritty no-nonsense cop on the trail of a ruthless serial killer, the last thing Moss needs is an annoying sidekick. But his boss - a fan of Nick Lang's movies - insists, and Moss must find ways to get Lang out of his hair while pursuing the murderer.

Fox and Woods - A barking mad comedy - The Hard Way review by Roger Hero
A forgotten gem from the 90s.
An easy watch, a good evening's entertainment and a welcome break from the modern "movies".
Fox and Woods make the most of this weak premise and is just fun and as delicious as a "ah-frog ah-dog"...
