Beverly Hills Cop III

"A whacky and sometimes lame 3rd film. With Axel Foley taking on bad guys at an amusement park. Despite a dumb plot. The film does entertain me every time."

"It wasn’t great, nor bad. Don’t think I’ll watch it again though. "

"Not as strong. Watchable. "

"By the time Beverly Hills Cop 3 (1994) was released, the franchise had lost much of its original luster. Directed by John Landis, the film sees Axel Foley investigating a counterfeit money operation at a California amusement park. The plot is convoluted, and the film struggles to find its footing between action and comedy. One of the most significant criticisms of the third installment is its lack of coherence and originality. The film’s attempts at humor often fall flat, and the action sequences lack the excitement of the previous films. Eddie Murphy’s performance, once the franchise’s saving grace, feels tired and uninspired. The absence of the original producers, Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer, is palpable, as the film lacks the high-energy production values that defined the earlier entries. The Beverly Hills Cop trilogy serves as a fascinating case study in the evolution of a film franchise. The original film’s groundbreaking success set a high bar that the sequels struggled to meet. While Beverly Hills Cop 2 and Beverly Hills Cop 3 have their moments, they ultimately highlight the challenges of maintaining a franchise’s momentum and staying true to its core appeal. Eddie Murphy’s portrayal of Axel Foley remains iconic, and the character’s journey from Detroit to Beverly Hills continues to resonate with audiences. The trilogy’s blend of action, comedy, and social commentary ensures its place in cinematic history, even as it serves as a reminder of the difficulties in sustaining a successful film series."

"Very funny and action packed cop movie, man's boss gets killed so he goes back to California to lock up the bandits responsible 10/10"

"This is just not the same compared to the first 2 films. The script in this was really bad that not even Eddie Murphy could save it. Also the editing in this was just really bad, jumps cuts in fight scenes and the cuts were just not natural. I love that they kept the original cast in this though (besides Taggart) and that was only thing that kept me watching"

"Great movies. Love them"

"Even though they went to all too many times, you cherish anything Pre-Shrek Eddie did. "

"Loved the trilogy."

"Eddie Murphy is funny!"
