The sequel to Stakeout goes the way of the Lethal Weapon series: into escalating silliness. (Even the title, copied from Another 48 Hrs., is not a novel way for a sequel to go.) Enlisting stand-up comedian Rosie O'Donnell and her audible gasp makes the intentions perfectly clear. The most actual amusement, however, comes from the intermittent glimpses of Madeleine Stowe, the romantic interest of the first film, as Richard Dreyfuss's now estranged girlfriend. The original director and writer, John Badham and Jim Kouf, are back too. With Emilio Estevez, Cathy Moriarty, Miguel Ferrer. (1993) — Duncan Shepherd
