- "48 Hrs." (1982) “48 Hrs.” is often given the distinction of being the first film in the buddy cop genre, as it stars Nick Nolte as San Francisco Police Investigator Jack Cates and Eddie Murphy — in his film debut, no less — as his incarcerated former partner, Reggie Hammond.
- "Beverly Hills Cop" (1984) Eddie Murphy is the undeniable star of “Beverly Hills Cop” as Detroit police officer Axel Foley, but he eventually teams with detective Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and Sergeant John Taggart (John Ashton) to solve the murder of his friend, making the Martin Brest-directed comedy something of a buddy cop movie.
- "Running Scared" (1986) “Running Scared” is a fun but oft-forgotten film that features Gregory Hines and Billy Crystal as a pair of wisecracking and unorthodox Chicago cops trying to take down a drug dealer played by Jimmy Smits.
- "Lethal Weapon" (1987) Shane Black’s original script for “Lethal Weapon” called for a much darker urban Western, but thanks to some input from director Richard Donner and producer Joel Silver, as well as the instant chemistry formed by stars Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, the movie eventually became a buddy cop action-comedy set in Los Angeles.
