Critics Consensus

Content to let a very game Eddie Murphy bring all the heat, the fourth Beverly Hills Cop coasts on nostalgia but marks a welcome return for Axel Foley.

Murphy might be one of the most talented performers of any generation and it’s thrilling to see him back in the role that turned him into a movie star.

Rather than turning the brash Axel Foley into some toned-down joke, Murphy delivers a vintage, lively performance. It’s more than enough to make Axel F an enjoyable and worthwhile watch for Beverly Hills Cop fans.

Rated: 8/10

Alas, forty years have passed, but the series hasn’t gotten any braver. Just older. A lot older. Haven’t we all.

Can we please be done with the legacy hero coming back for 1 last ride schtick? Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F is another one of those Netflix movies you put on and forget about 1/2 way through. Not awful but Foley deserved to retire.

It was absolutely great seeing all the gang back together. Good time if you enjoy the first two films? Then you will like this. I even like the third while most don't but this was a lot better than 3. And hopefully maybe will get one more BHC.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

If you liked the first two but couldn't stand the third installment, good news, this one is by far better, has the feel of the first 2. Definitely worth the watch if your a fan of the series.

An absolute must-see! Great film with a wonderful homage to the earlier movies. I immediately rewatched the first film afterward. The only thing I missed was Axel's iconic annoying laugh.

An entertaining, thrilling and exciting movie. Time flies with the action and comedy. That aside, don’t allow the opinions of others distract you. Watch with an open mind and make your own judgement. I nearly fell into that trap!
