Beverly Hills Cop II - Un piedipiatti a Beverly Hills II

Beverly Hills Cop II is definitely my all time favorite Action comedy flick. Beverly Hills Cop (1984) will always be the best and my all time favorite film that I love to death. That is why I just love the sequel much more and I have always enjoyed this film much better than the original film I did. Here Axel Foley,Billy Rosewood and John Taggart works as a team than they did in the first film. This time Axel Foley returns to Beverly Hills to help Taggart and Rosewood investigate Chief Bogomil's near-fatal shooting and the series of strange robberies "alphabet crimes" associated with it. Axel Foley comes back which he reunites with Detective Billy Rosewood and Detective Sergeant John Taggart.

I love the Action sequences they are all great , humor , suspense , tongue in cheek, shoot'em up and is developed in agility and movement and for that reason is amusing. They are all great, there isn't any cgi in it. Whole cast did a great job. It is my all time favorite sequel to the first film. I seriously I love this film to death and I always have enjoyed so much. I still don't get it why all the hate for this film? The third film was really the worst in the series but I still like it and I will still watch it.

Eddie Murphy did a great job as a Detroit detective Axel Foley, he did acted very well. Yes he was shouting one everyone I saw that, but there are things in the film that people didn't noticed. After his friend Captain Andrew Bogomil was shot he didn't hesitate to come to Beverly Hills and helping him out. He cared more about his friend than anyone else did. He hustle Maxwell Dent accountant Sidney Bernstein for $200 but, he later donated the money for Beverly Hills homeless people. He could spend the money but he donated. After he took Billy's vitamins and he bluff out the secretary in Beverly Hills Gun Club for money and he throw the vitamins away. he gave the money back to Billy for the vitamins he throw away! I thought that was very nice. Judge Reinhold as Detective Billy Rosewood did a wonderful job and a support in the main cast along side Axel Foley. He was crazy with guns which I love it. We see poster from Stallone's Cobra and Rambo: First Blood Part II in Billy's apartment. I love how he was driving the car and caring so much guns with him. He had a turtle in his apartment awesome. John Ashton as Detective Sergeant John Taggart did a pretty good job as detective helping and solving a Alphabet crime he was awesome. Brigitte Nielsen as Karla Fry did a wonderful job as villainies and it was one of her best roles I have ever seen. Jürgen Prochnow as Maxwell Dent was fantastic villain much better than Steven Berkoff and Jonathan Banks in the first movie did. Dean Stockwell as Charles "Chip" Cain did a fantastic job as Dent henchman. Allen Garfield as Chief Harold Lutz was fantastic he was so load and funny I was keep laughing at his performance. The Last and at least the best small role that had was Ronny Cox I seriously I love him in this film. He doesn't do much but his still a good as Andrew Bogomil we finally found out that he has a daughter Jan and she is very beautiful. There are other faces in this film like are Hugh Hefner who plays himself, Chris Rock has a small cameo in it.Gilbert Hill as Inspector G. Douglas Todd and Paul Reiser as Detective Jeffrey Friedman also return from the first film and they also do have a few scenes in the film.In the original movie they were only in the beginning of the film than they were cut off from the rest of the film. I seriously think Tony Scott did a wonderful job filming this decent awesome Action Comedy flick.

Beverly Hills Cop II is a 1987 action comedy film starring Eddie Murphy and directed by Tony Scott. It is the sequel to the 1984 film Beverly Hills Cop and the second installment in the Beverly Hills Cop series.Although it made less money than the original Beverly Hills Cop and received mixed reviews from critics, the film was still a box office success, making $153,665,036 domestically.

I love this film to death!!! I love this film to death! it will always stay in my heart! I love the shooting, action, car chases, playboy girls everything in this film. I love Eddie Murphy! I also love the main theme for Axel Foley from Harold Faltermeyer and songs a Better Way" - James Ingram,Shakedown" - Bob Seger and Hold On" by Corey Hart.

Beverly Hills Cop is most definitely a classic, and I must say Beverly Hills Cop II lives up to the first one reasonably well. Everything that I enjoyed from the first one was carried on in this one, which is simultaneously a perk and a flaw. A perk because the style of the first was great, but a flaw because it did feel familiar in many respects. There is a little bit of a sense that if you've seen the first one, you've seen the second one. That being said this film is a hoot, and I can't wait to watch the third instalment.

The plot is all a bit ludicrous and didn't entirely make sense (to me at any rate). There was nothing too original about the core concept, feeling a bit James Bondy in a way. It wasn't bad at all, and ticked along at a zippy pace, with a good variety of action sequences, comedic moments and sharply scripted scenes. The Beverly Hills Cop films aren't really about the plot though, its all about Eddie Murphy.

He is just so god damn funny, and possibly at his comedic acting peak in the 80s. His comedic timing, body language, facial expressions are second to none, making Beverly Hills Cop II hilarious. I actually think the humour was as decent as the first film, its just the plot which doesn't match up in quality. There are several cast members returning from the first instalment, all of whom put in solid performances, but as mentioned its 100% Murphy's film.

I also just love the style of 80s films, and Beverly Hills Cop II has so many 80s trademarks. From the soundtrack to the direction to the script. Its just a blast.

Any fans of the Beverly Hills Cop franchise or Eddie Murphy in general will for sure love this film. It a bit messy in places but that never detracts from it's numerous triumphs.

I know this goes against the grain, but I did enjoy this sequel to Beverly Hills Cop more than the original. I was not the biggest fan of the first film, it had its moments, but I did really enjoy this one. This one has Foley returning to Beverly Hills to help the friends he made from the first film solve a set of robberies and a cop getting shot. I do not know, but I enjoyed the story more and I also enjoyed the inclusion of Brigitte Nielsen as the bad guy for the piece. She was rather good for a short stretch, but faded quite fast like a lot of actresses. I enjoyed the chemistry between Murphy, Reinhold and Ashton my favorite scene where Axel (Murphy) and Taggart (Ashton) were discussing Billy (Reinhold) possibly having a problem as he had quite an assortment of weapons and gun paraphernalia. The action in this one is really good too and I like the humor a bit more here too. To me it is a better film, but that is me. Most people like the first one better I imagine, I just thought this one had a bit more substance to it than the first film. I think this one is a wild ride and the cast is comfortable with their roles. I am sure we can all agree that it is a better sequel than the third movie.

In Beverly Hills, cops Andrew Bogomil (Ronny Cox), Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold), and John Taggart (John Ashton) are investigating a series of crimes known as "The Alphabet Crimes" so named because of the envelopes containing coded messages with a letter of the Alphabet on the envelope. Meanwhile, in Detroit, Detective Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) is working undercover on a credit card fraud ring. After Bogomil is shot and wounded by assailants attached to the crimes, Axel soon learns of what has transpired and without his superior's knowledge travels to Beverly Hills to assist Taggart and Rosewood on an investigation as they avoid the incompetent and politically motivated Chief Harold Lutz (Allen Garfield).

Following the success of Beverly Hills Cop, Paramount Pictures, producers Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson, and star Eddie Murphy were eager to do a follow-up. While original director Martin Brest turned down the opportunity to return, Tony Scott who'd directed Top Gun for Bruckheimer and Simpson was hired due not only to his work on Top Gun but also due to Scott's desire to work with Murphy. As with the original film there was a lot of re-writes going on behind the scenes, but in addition to the usual on the fly improvisation the film also needed reshoots as Tony Scott proved more adept at action rather than comedy necessitating the inclusion of additional comedy scenes. While the film was not as successful as its predecessor, it still made enough to be considered a blockbuster hit becoming the third highest grossing film of 1987. Critical reception tended to run more mixed and even Eddie Murphy has voiced similar feelings saying "it was probably the most successful mediocre movie in history". Beverly Hills Cop II isn't an awful movie and is perfectly serviceable, but it also feels like a more manufactured take on the first film often eschewing the rawness of the original in favor of flash and polish.

Despite not having the best material to work with, Eddie Murphy is still fun playing Axel Foley who still gets to use his motormouthed lies to work his way through situations such as how he manages to live in a mansion for the duration of the plot. Admittedly there's a lot of scenes where it seems like Murphy's trying to wring life out of not all that impressive sequences (an opening bit involving Foley investigating fraudulent credit cards goes nowhere except a reference to a one off character from the opening scene of the last movie) and some of his lies don't have the feeling of spontaneity they had previously such as one involving the Playboy Mansion. Murphy, Reinhold, and Ashton work well together and the fact they share so much screentime together is a plus to the movie. In terms of the rest of the movie, it does feel like it's more of a traditional blockbuster this time around. If the first Beverly Hills Cop was a comic detective story with an edge and some action, Beverly Hills Cop is an action movie where the comedy is largely secondary. There are many more action setpieces in this sequel with each one trying to up the ante on the climactic ending from the first film, but in the process the movie loses a lot of the raw identity that resonated so much in the first film. The plot basically follows the same path as the original with Foley investigating in Beverly Hills for personal reasons (in this case rapidly setting up Foley and Bogomil have since become friends) but there's so little build-up or personal investment that the stakes never feel as high and you're constantly reminded of how much better the first one did this. Jurgen Prochnow and Brigette Nielsen are at least charismatic and imposing villains, but they don't play against Murphy as successfully as Steven berkoff did.

Beverly Hills Cop II is the definition of "servicable". There's nothing especially wrong with it, but there's also nothing especially right with it and it mostly rests on the goodwill of its cast to justify its existence.

I finally saw this sequel and it was better than what many people say. Murphy has some very hilarious moments and Reinhold and Ashton were just as good. Also, the action scene's were decent too, though the chase with the cement truck was'nt as good as the chase in the first with the transport truck. I did notice that the film lacked the freshness of the first one but still it was fun to watch.
