Movie Reviews of Beverly Hills Cop

Movie Review: Beverly Hills Cop
Summary: 5 Stars

Axel Foley is a Detroit cop who after the murder of his friend travels to California to investigate and track down the killer, who he believes operate an arts dealership as a cover in Beverly Hills. He teams up with two reluctant detectives from the Beverly Hills police force who were supposed to keep a watch on him, especially after seeing Foley's different approach to tackling the situations which is not acceptable by the chief of the local police. This movie has the combination of clever comedy and the ingredients from harder action thrillers that ensured Beverly Hills Cop status as a cop comedy classic.

Summary of Beverly Hills Cop

The heat is on in this fast paced action-comedy starring Eddie Murphy as Axel Foley a street smart Detroit cop tracking down his best friend's killer in Beverly Hills. Axel quickly learns that his wild style doesn't fit in with the Beverly Hills Police Department which assigns two officers (Judge Reinhold & John Ashton) to make sure things don't get out of hand. Dragging the stuffy detectives along for the ride Axel smashes through a huge culture clash in his hilarious high-speed pursuit of justice. Featuring cameos by Paul Reiser Bronson Pinchot and Damon Wayans Beverly Hills Cop is an exhilarating sidesplitting adventure.System Requirements:Running Time: 105 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/CRIMINALS UPC: 097361378442 Manufacturer No: 137844
While its sequels were formulaic and safe, the first Beverly Hills Cop set out to explore some uncharted territory, and succeeded. A blend of violent action picture and sharp comedy, the film has an excellent director, Martin Brest (Scent of a Woman), who finds some original perspectives on stock scenes (highway chases, police rousts) and hits a gleeful note with Murphy while skewering L.A. culture. Good support from Judge Reinhold and John Ashton as local cops not used to doing things the Detroit way (Murphy's character hails from the Motor City). Paul Reiser has a funny, brief moment at the beginning, and Bronson Pinchot makes a hilarious impression in a great, never-to-be-duplicated scene with the star. --Tom Keogh
