The Big Picture Before the era of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, before Peter Jackson blessed cinemas with The Lord of the Rings, and before Harry Potter ever waved his magic wand, one of the biggest movie franchises in all of Hollywood was Beverly Hills Cop, starring comedy legend Eddie Murphy. The first movie was a massive critical and commercial success, with Murphy's role as the fast-talking and rambunctious Detroit cop Axel Foley cementing him as an A-lister.
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F RActionComedyCrime Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley is the fourth film in the popular comedy franchise starring Eddie Murphy. Murphy returns as Axel Foley in the Netflix film alongside returning cast members Judge Reinhold and John Ashton and Bronson Pinchot as Serge. Kevin Bacon and Joseph Gordon-Levitt also star in the sequel as new characters.
Eddie Murphy Hasn't Missed a Beat as Axel Foley There is no question that Murphy is one of the best comic leading men to ever grace the screen. Even in his stumbles , he's never not trying. While Coming 2 America may have failed to deliver, Axel F feels like redemption. Despite having a comedian in the lead role, the first two films in the series always had a blend of being a gritty cop flick and a raunchy comedy.
Newcomers such as Paige and Gordon-Levitt are also solid additions. Paige effectively makes Jane feel like Foley's polar opposite as she's more about business versus cracking jokes and having fun. Her back and forth with Murphy provides some of the movie's biggest highlights and these scenes bring in a lot more heart. Gordon-Levitt also fits right in as Bobby, basically playing a straight man who becomes increasingly riled up by Foley and his shenanigans.
