Nick doesn't join the ZPD until the last few minutes of the film. Before that you have a buddy comedy where one's a cop the other is a hustler.

* ''Film/NationalSecurity'' has a slight twist. Neither SteveZahn's (Hank) nor Creator/MartinLawrence's (Earl) character is a cop. Hank used to be a cop until his partner was killed, and he was filmed supposedly assaulting Earl (he was swatting a bumblebee), causing him to be fired and jailed for 6 months. After getting out, the only job he can get is in security, working for the same company as Earl, who keeps trying to get into the police academy. Hank is trying to find out who killed his partner and track down the warehouse robbers, while Earl is tagging along for the action, which infuriates Hank to no end. Naturally, as the film continues, they resolve their differences and, by the end, both are cops. While neither is really a ByTheBookCop, Hank uses typical police investigative techniques, while Earl goes for the more "street" approach (e.g. Hank is content to sit on the roof for a night-long stakeout, while Earl gets bored and breaks into the bad guys' apartment).

* In ''VideoGame/DiscoElysium'', the PlayerCharacter's partner, Kim Kitsuragi, is very fleshed out, frequently chimes in during conversations, and while he generally follows the player's lead, preferring to disappear into the background, he will take over from the main character if he feels strongly that the player is hindering the investigation. Whether him and the player character become True Companions or only stick it out for the sake of the case is once again down to the player and their choices.
