Beverly Hills Cop: Is It Eddie Murphy's Best Movie?

The heat is most definitely on in this episode of revisited, as we’re looking back on a quintessential piece of 1980s action / comedy movie-making, that helped to launch the career of American funnyman Eddie Murphy into the stratosphere. That’s right folk, with the much anticipated fourth entry in the series on the horizon, we’re taking a retrospective look at the Axel F infused goodness that is Beverly Hills Cop. OK, well, I guess part four isn’t necessarily ‘much anticipated’ across the entire movie-world, but Eddie Murphy has had somewhat of a career resurgence in recent times and apart from a slightly tame and disappointing Coming 2 America, and the relative appeal of You People, he’s made a positive return the spotlight. Part four is currently slated, as per time of writing this video, for 2024 but there have been whispers about it possibly surfacing on Netflix, or perhaps even theatrically first, later in 2023. Of course, this is all conjecture as there’s no word from the streaming giant as of yet, but if Netflix decide the test screenings have been strong enough, and they can get it locked and loaded in time, then who knows. For now though, sit back, enjoy your prawn salad sandwich and pop a couple of bananas in a tailpipe as we look back on the endlessly quotable Eddie Murphy classic, Beverly Hills Cop!
