The Force Awakens of BHC movies
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F *is* heavy on nostalgia. It’s The Force Awakens of BHC movies: Billy is Luke, he’s missing. Axel is Han, back in action to find his friend. Taggert is Leia, running the show. Taylour Paige and JGL are Rey and Finn.

Your mileage may vary
If nostalgia for the ‘80s is your only criteria, you might have a great time with Netflix’s BEVERLY HILLS COP: AXEL F. If you want a fresher perspective, maybe not. My @THR reviewhttps://t.co/Fm79ibMws5

The movie belongs in one place...
The real crime in BEVERLY HILLS COP: AXEL F?
Netflix not giving this entertaining-as-Hell summer blockbuster a theatrical release.
Very happy to have seen this big-screen movie the way it was meant to be seen—

Worst of the series
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024) -Debatably the worst of the series, undoubtedly the most visually repulsive. An action-comedy failing at both in spectacular fashion. It makes me appreciate Coming 2 America now in retrospect

Enjoyably Nostalgic
The fast-talking Axel Foley makes his long awaited return in Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F. While certainly having it's faults, I found this to be a fun and enjoyably nostalgic return for the character and franchise.https://t.co/984PyWglz9 pic.twitter.com/5rkM2gce5J

Better Than Coming 2 America!
After being let down by Coming 2 America, I’m happy to say Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F is a much stronger return to form as far as revisiting old Eddie Murphy films go. It’s hitting the beats I expected, but still fun. And despite being Netflix, it’s looks like a real movie. pic.twitter.com/MB3TH8arTF
