Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F - Review

Eddie Murphy is back as Axel Foley in a comedy sequel that lands 40 years after the original - is the same Beverly Hills magic still there?

I love how they kept an all 80s musical score, in it's original form, throughout the entire movie. And the jokes werent forced. It was a fun watch.

Fun fact: The kid at the beginning who flips off Foley and says “Fuck you Foley!” was me! Happy you enjoyed the film Dan!

I was pleasantly surprised that Gordon-Levitt's character didn't magically overcome his past trauma and become an ace pilot simply because the plot needed him to. I assumed this tired trope from the minute Murphy made fun of him "not cutting it."

Out of all the hilarious banter and set pieces in this movie, I swear the biggest grin I had on my face was when Eddie Murphy was telling a guy he was "layered, like a beautiful onion". They knew exactly what they were doing.

I never realized how young Eddie Murphy was in the original Beverly Hills cop (only 23 years old) He looks great still for 63.

Perfect timing! My wife and I just finished watching the film. We had a great time! Classic 80s action comedy — a hell of a lot of fun!

So sad this didn’t come to theaters, Beverly Hills cop is a film my dad and I love to watch together we absolutely would have shown up for this

[angelgonzalez]

I thought it was freaken awesome to see Shooter McGavin make a cameo. ⛳️

[catbravo]

I miss these kind of movies. This was so good.

[heatheraggus]

Holy moly, that's a cast! Even Bronson Pinchot is back!

[johnnoon]

It's got everything you need in a Beverley Hills cop film. Pure uncut nostalgia. Axel, Rosewood, Taggart, Serge and the soundtrack.
Better than 3 but still way off the first 2.

[bingbong]

Murphy and Levitt have good chemistry. I enjoyed this movie more than part 3. It was surprisingly good.

[jonm.]

This would have totally worked as prime "take your Dad to see" movie. It's unfortunate that they didn't put this one out. It would have been a great boost for theatrical exhibition. Never the less, great review i'm off to do the Neutron Dance, Happy 4th.

[potterpotty]

they play the heat is on, shakedown and Neutron dance in the first 25 minutes with two different car chases, holy nostalgia Batman. I liked it a lot!

[geeksontapshow]

I really wish that this was going to be in theaters. It definitely would have made at least 30 million this weekend. Netflix needs to stop dumping stuff on their streaming service and try to make their money back.

I really wish that this was in theaters.

I just finished it. And personally I thought it was a home run of a movie. I remember watching the original back in the day. And this just had it. Action, comedy and the nostalgia of seeing the old cash come back. Cannot wait for another installment.

[handuong]

This movie definitely should have been in the theaters!! They did this movie right 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[JackOsborneFilm]

I was consistently chuckling throughout, as far as late/re-boot sequel/remakes go… it was a fun one.

Joseph Gordon levitt and Taylor paige we're really solid choices for the new cast addition. They add charm charisma and overall weight dept as important pieces to the story.
