Gary Busey and Nick Nolte star as retired police partners/ former detectives.
Together, they were the best detectives San Fransisco ever saw. Showered with medals, publicity, and commendations, they protected the city with all their hearts. But, as with everything else, the city and times change. Their cowboy ways were eventually replaced by the younger more disciplined officers. And the "San Fran Avengers" watched their promotions slip through their fingers.
Gary Busey was the ever slick, detective with iron moral fortitude. Now he's the host of a once highly acclaimed Cops-type reality show. But the show has landed in hot water, now that evidence may prove the show has staged it's events.
Nick Nolte, formerly a renegade, devil-may-care beat cop(with military history), has sunken into a drunken depression. He is tormented by his past, filled with war and bravery. After his wife leaves him, he loses all hope. Thankfully he tries to find it at the bottom of a bottle, rather than the barrel of a gun.
Now a once notorious serial killer reemerges. This time he's united all San Fransisco's baddest in a quest to take the city by storm and leave dead cops in their wake. GB decides that solving the case they never could, may return him to his former glory. He and NN (inspired by the idea that he may get the chance to die honorably in a gun fight) set off to catch the cop-teasing menace to society. Badge-less, they fight to return order to the lawless city they love.
They find, that the criminal underworld isn't what it used to be. And, neither are they. But honor knows no age and crime will always fear justice.
Hi jinx ensue.
(I see this as Lethal Weapon meets Training Day)
I'm thinking Shane Black to write/direct
John Malkovich as the Zodiac Killer inspired Bad-guy.
Melanie Griffith as Nick Nolte's ex-wife
Jake Busey as Gary's disapproving police officer son/inside man
so, what do you think?
