Showtime is a 2002 action comedy film directed by Tom Dey and starring Robert De Niro and Eddie Murphy.
The film centers on two cops, Det. Mitch Preston (Robert De Niro) and Officer Trey Sellars (Eddie Murphy), who are paired for a reality police show and run into real trouble with a crime lord. The beginning of the story closely parallels that of the 1988 film The Dead Pool, in which Harry Callahan intentionally breaks a news camera and is subject to favors for the news channel as a result. In this film, Mitch breaks a news camera after a failed confrontation with a drug lord, who escapes by using a custom-built gun. Maxxis Television, the network that employed the cameraman, decides to sue the police department for $10 million, but will drop the lawsuit if Mitch agrees to star in a reality cop television show, which Trey later calls Showtime!.
Trey enters the picture shortly after, as an LAPD officer who actually wants to be an actor while also trying to become a detective. He pays a friend to snatch the purse of the show's producer, Chase Renzi (Rene Russo), and then retrieves it after a staged fight scene. Even though the deception is embarrassingly revealed, Chase is impressed and signs Trey on anyway. It is quickly revealed that the show's producers have little interest in filming an actual police officer's existence; they build a mini-movie set in the middle of the station, and replace Mitch's nondescript personal car with a Humvee. They also hire William Shatner (who once played T. J. Hooker) to give both men tips on how to act. Trey is eager to learn, Mitch is merely annoyed.

Laughs abound when a no-nonsense LAPD detective (Academy Award-winner Robert De Niro - "The Good Shepard," "City by the Sea") is forced to star in a reality-based television show with a showboating patrolman and frustrated wannabe-actor (Academy Award and Golden Globe-nominee Eddie Murphy - "Dreamgirls," "Norbit") in an effort to boost the department's public image and morale. They soon find their lives turned upside-down by the show's powerhouse producer (Rene Russo -- "The Thomas Crown Affair," "Lethal Weapon" 3 and 4) and her very intrusive camera crew! Also starring Golden Globe and Emmy Award-winner William Shatner (TV's "Boston Legal," "Miss Congeniality") and Alex Borstein ("Good Night, and Good Luck," "Catwoman").
Hallo liebe Leute
Bitte gebt schön Acht
Denn wir haben euch hier und heute etwas mitgebracht
Text für'n Kopf und Musik für's Ohr
Macht euch drauf gefasst
Wir machen euch was vor!
Durchs Ohr, ins Gehirn und direkt in Bauch
Machen jede Menge Schall
Und ziemlich wenig Rauch.
Mal leise und mal laut
Mal flüsternd und mal krachend
Kurz: Wir sind gekommen, um Musik zu machen.
Im Club oder Saal oder Open-Air
Radio und CD alles kreuz und quer
Die Hauptsache ist wir sind mit dabei
Licht an
Und Bühne frei!
Dreh' völlig ab oder bleib ganz cool
Lehn dich zurück oder tanz auf'm Stuhl!
Sing mit oder nicht!
So oder so
Herzlich Willkommen, hier ist die Wise Guys Show!
Wir kommen nicht aus dem schönsten Stadt der Welt
Sondern aus der Stadt, die sich für die schönste hält
Dieser Köln-Effekt
Der manchen Fleck verdeckt
Hat uns nie verschreckt
Köln ist einfach korrekt!
Wir geh'n zum Lachen auf die Bühne
Und nicht in'n Keller.
Können auch ohne Kölsch fröhlich sein,
Doch mit gehts schneller.
Wir machen was wir wollen
Sonst lassen wir's sein
Und darum passen wir in keine Schulblade rein.
Schubladendenken - Blödsinn mit Methode!
Wir machen unser Ding eben neben der Komode.
Die Hauptsache ist, ihr seid mit dabei.
Licht an
und Bühne frei!
Dreh' völlig ab oder bleib ganz cool
Lehn dich zurück oder tanz auf'm Stuhl!
Sing mit oder nicht!
So oder so
Herzlich Willkommen, hier ist die Wise Guys Show!
(gesprochen) Meine Damen und Herren, die Band.
Clemens, Sari, Ferenc, Eddie und Dän
Fünf Autobahnmatrosen, ohne Kapitan
Fahr'n durchs ganze Land
Ständig unterwegs
Manchmal mehr schwer in Eile
Nichtmal Zeit für'n Keks
Showtime!
