A mutually uneasy alliance is formed between the stern Captain Ivan Danko of the Moscow Police and his American equivalent, the Chicago Detective Art Ridzik when the latter captures Viktor Rostavili, a dangerous Georgian drug kingpin. With his partner murdered by Viktor's hands, Ivan lands in Chicago to extradite the crime lord back to Russia, however, when he manages to escape, a frenzied chase in the bustling downtown will begin.

Did You Know?
| Trivia | The film crew applied for a permit to film in the Red Square but the application was denied, so the crew had to "sneak-film" the Red Square scenes. They dressed Arnold Schwarzenegger up in the uniform and filmed him as though making an amateur/home movie with just a couple of crew people present. See more » |
| Goofs | The teleprinter at the Moscow militia headquarters is seen printing a message in Russian but in the Latin alphabet. Equipment used by the Soviet government would undoubtedly allow the Cyrillic alphabet to be used. See more » |

| Crazy Credits | In the opening credits certain letters are reversed so as to imitate Russian Cyrillic script. In particular, "Rs" and "Ns" are reversed. See more » |
| Quotes |
Hooligan:
Hey, asshole! You can't park here, this is my spot! I live right up there. So move your piece-of-shit car or give me fifty bucks. Ivan Danko: I do not understand. Hooligan: Let me make it real simple, moron. You move your ass or give me fifty, or I take my Pete Rose here and fucking mutilate your car. Ivan Danko: Do you know Miranda? Hooligan: Never heard of the bitch. [Danko punches him unconscious] Ivan Danko: [in Russian] Hooligani. [Ridzik comes back] Art Ridzik: Everything okay? Ivan Danko: Yes, fine. No problems. Art Ridzik: What about that sack of shit lying on the sidewalk? Ivan Danko: He lives here. See more » |
