Beverly Hills Cop (1984)
Member Rating:  
What's that wisecracking young black guy (Eddie Murphy) in that beat-up Chevy Nova doing in lily-white Beverly Hills? He's Axel Foley, a Detroit detective who's been sent on involuntary vacation because he refuses to drop his intention of avenging his friend's murder. Warned by Beverly Hills police chief Ronny Cox to stay out of trouble, Foley nonetheless dogs the trail of above-the-law Steven Berkoff, the British crime czar who was responsible for the murder of Foley's friend. With the help of sympathetic local cops Judge Reinhold and John Ashton and lady friend Lisa Eilbacher, Foley attempts to corner Berkoff in his mansion, which leads to a wild slapsticky shootout. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This is a funny movie! Eddie Murphy steals the screen. The soundtrack was good too. A LOT of violence and profanity--NOT FOR CHILDREN

Probably the best Eddie Murphy movie out there. The situation is cause for many a laugh, although the BHPD is really not as absurdly incompetent as portrayed. Some pretty graphic violence, so not for the kids.

My favorite movie for a long long time. I must have watched it at least eight times and never got tired of it. I laughed so hard at the antics of Taggart and Rosewood in this one. So many good characters. Extremely well done action-comedy!

I got this movie out for my 13-year-old, but after he started watching it he said it was R rated. Blockbuster had no rating listed that I could find. We stopped the movie and sent it back. Now I am wondering about the other B. Hills Cop movies that I ordered.

Watching this movie was a flash back into the 80's. Comical at times and just interesting to see some of the classic 80's actors. And to see Eddie Murphy as the classic Goofball Comedian. The laugh is what does it. A classic 80's movie to watch. It was just nice to see a movie, that's a comedy, that didn't have all the PC and Censorship that nowaday movies have.
