Showtime is a 2002 action comedy directed by Tom Dey (Shanghai Noon) and starring Robert De Niro as a no-nonsense LAPD detective who is partnered with a patrol cop (Eddie Murphy) who desperately wants to be an actor. Together they become stars of their own reality program as they investigate the use of a very deadly weapon in several crimes. The cast includes Rene Russo and William Shatner as himself.
The following weapons were used in the film Showtime (2002):
