Le Flic de Beverly Hills : Axel F.

The film commences with Axel Foley, now a seasoned Detroit cop, in a high-octane chase through the city streets. The action sequences are well-executed, providing a refreshing contrast to the prevalent overuse of CGI in many of today's blockbusters. The narrative then transports us back to Beverly Hills, where Axel's estranged daughter Jane, portrayed by Taylour Paige, finds herself in peril due to her involvement in a case concerning corrupt cops. The reappearance of familiar characters like Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and John Taggart (John Ashton) adds a touch of nostalgia. New additions to the cast, including Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Kevin Bacon, infuse a fresh dynamic into the narrative.

This is more than just a legacy sequel; it's a testament to Eddie Murphy's enduring charm and comedic prowess. It's a film that doesn't shy away from addressing themes of aging and the treatment of veterans in law enforcement. While the film does indulge in its share of nostalgic callbacks, it manages to stand on its own merits. It surpasses the second and third films in the series, and it successfully encapsulates the spirit of the original while adapting to the expectations of a contemporary audience. In conclusion, "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F" is a surprisingly entertaining film that successfully revives a beloved franchise. It's a film that will make you laugh, keep you on the edge of your seat, and perhaps even stir a bit of nostalgia. Whether you're a fan of the original films or new to the franchise,

I thought this was nicely done. It seemed to me that they weren't trying to outdo, or even match the original movie, but were just giving it an affectionate nod. And it achieved just that. It's nowhere near as funny as the first one but anyone who knows that movie well will probably enjoy the many tributes to some of its best moments. It was great to see so many of the original cast and also a lot of the locations. Using the original music was also a nice touch and it helped to recreate the mood of the original movie. If you don't expect too much it's quite a fun watch. I bet they had a ball making it!

It was a fun ride that had a lot of the original elements. Nothing new in terms of the plot but it was entertaining. It was nice to see most of the original cast show up throughout the film. Everyone is a lot older so don't expect a lot of physical action and fighting scenes, just a lot of bullets flying.

I said everyone is much older but the main start, Murphy, seriously doesn't look much older than he did in Beverly Hills Cop III. There's a scene with Eddie Murphy and Kevin Bacon in a room together. Bacon looks like the 65 year old OG he is but Murphy looks nowhere near his age of 63. 63! Let that sink in when you see him on screen. Unbelievable.

Axel is back!!! It was a pleasing film with the gang back again. The story was not complicated but fits the Beverly Hills Cop movies. The intro got you right back all those years ago. And how i have missed the humor of Eddie Murphy on the big screen. The film had the humor and action we came to love from the first films. Yes, it can never beat the original films but they were simply that good and the gang was ofcourse a lot younger. Taggert surprised me with a energetic performance for his respectable age! I was completey back in the Foley universe and enjoyed it! Thank you Eddie, good to see you again!

I really wasn't expecting much. The third movie was so bad, and this one straight to streaming, I figured it would be a disaster. But it wasn't! I think if they tried to update it too much and there wasn't as much nostalgia (music, familiar characters), it would've been a flop.

The story is ok, just not very strong. The action was ok, but it was a a lot of rehashing of the opening sequence of the first movie - plus, everyone is so much older now, there can't be as much running or rolling around on the floor. The humor throughout is decent, I wish there was more.

The weakest of it all is the actor who played Jane. Unfortunately, she's not very good in the emoting department - she's way worse than Brigitte Nielsen was in the second movie. Anyways, it's still a decent watch if one is a fan of the originals. It's good enough to have deserved a theatrical release. Not bad at all.
