    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!
