A high-octane 1970s police action film built on explosive set pieces and the friction between a reckless young cop and his seasoned mentor.

A hot-shot police officer has more guts than brains, often landing him in hot water with his middle-aged mentor, who was once a legendary cop responsible for numerous large scale arrests.
