"Disturbing the peace? I got thrown out of a window! What's the fuckin' charge for getting pushed out of a moving car, huh? Jaywalking?"

Beverly Hills Cop is possibly Eddie Murphy's most popular flick - a deft, witty combination of hilarious laughs and violent action. The film admirably stands out for its excessive energy, clever repartee, and sharp-tongued wit (compliments of star ... read more

By now, I have seen all the movies starring Eddie Murphy (I’m only missing his last movie ‘A Thousand Words’) and it has been a very thankless task. Indeed, it is not very often that you come across an actor who managed so thoroughly to destroy his career (Val Kilmer and Nicolas Cage are some decent contenders as well).

Wow, I was surprised at how brilliant this film was. It was funny and thrilling and had Eddie Murphy in his best role.

The direction is assured, and the acting is great. Eddie Mur... read more

“Wow, I was surprised at how brilliant this film was. It was funny and thrilling and had Eddie Murphy in his best role. It looks great, with the cinematography, scenery and editing all stylish, and the soundtrack is note-perfect, while the script is fresh, believable and funny with plenty of wit, and the story is thrilling and fast paced. The direction is assured, and the acting is great. Eddie Murphy is brilliant playing his most likable character to date, and shares a believable chemistry with Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Lisa Eilbacher and Steven Berkoff who all match him without fault. In conclusion, greatly enjoyable, and much better than its sequel. 10/10 Bethany Cox” read more

Film Franchise Takes (160 movies items)

" Created by: Daniel Petrie Jr. and Danilo Bach Years in activity: 1984 - present Number of films: 3 Best in series: Beverly Hills Cop Decent in series: Beverly Hills Cop II Worst in series: Beverly Hills Cop III My take on the series: I liked the first movie, Eddie Murphy is great in the film, and it may be one of his best films. The sequel was pretty decent, and the three movie was all together bad. Apparently, there will be a fourth movie. We will have to wait and see."
