Ride Along 1-2 [DVD]

Double bill of the buddy-cop movies starring Ice Cube and Kevin Hart. In 'Ride Along' (2014) 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. In 'Ride Along 2' (2016) Ben has now graduated from police academy and joined the Atlanta Police Department. With his wedding to Angela only days away, his future brother-in-law James reluctantly takes him to investigate a lead on drug ring leader Antonio Pope (Benjamin Bratt) in Miami.
