When James invites Ben on a ride-along to prove himself, Ben sees it as an opportunity to get James' approval and show him he's worthy of Angela's love. However, the duo quickly find themselves in over their heads when they stumble upon a high-profile case involving a dangerous gang leader named Omar (Laurence Fishburne).

The cast also includes John Leguizamo as a low-level crook and Bryan Callen as a hacker who help Ben and James take down Omar. Ride Along received mixed reviews from critics but was a box office success, grossing over $154 million worldwide. The success of the movie led to a sequel, Ride Along 2, which was released in 2016.
