Movie Review: “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F”



I asked Google Gemini AI to provide a 150 word summary of this movie.

I added the italics and pictures for clarity and completeness. 🙂


Decades after his original Beverly Hills adventure, Detroit detective Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) is back on the West Coast. This time, it’s his estranged daughter, Jane (Taylour Paige), who’s in danger. When she’s threatened for defending a possibly innocent client, Axel races to Beverly Hills to join forces with her and some old friends – Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and John Taggart (John Ashton). They uncover a hidden conspiracy, and Axel’s signature brand of wild action (and property damage) collides with the posh world of Beverly Hills. Together, the new (Detective Bobby Abbott (Joseph Gordon-Levitt)) and old crew take down the bad guys and help forge a new bond between Axel and his daughter.

John, Axel, Rosewood

“Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F” is a terrific, action-packed movie with thrills, laughs, and nostalgia all wrapped up in….well….Eddie Murphy and the rest of the tremendous cast.

The running gag of picking a different vehicle to chase, or run from, the bad guys is hilarious: Snow plow (see featured pic), parking police cart, golf cart, tiny DARE police car, helicopter (sort of), truck….etc etc.

We LOVED it!

STREAM it on Netflix.
