Review of Beverly Hills Cop II (1987) by Originaldanger — 21 Aug 2020

Beverly Hills Cop II is the sequel to the action comedy, Beverly Hills Cop.... Beverly Hills Cop II sees the return of Eddie Murphy as Axel Foley and his buddies Judge Reinhold and John Ashton who are working on the alphabet crimes after a police officer is shot in broad daylight.

.. Beverly Hills Cop II is good for a few cheesey laughs but fails as a sequel to the original because the edge the first had isn't operational in Beverly Hills Cop II and the blonde villain who's tall, Karla Fry played by Brigitte Nielsen is boring, annoying and an awful villain as so is Maxwell Dent as he seems dull and wooden.

The storyline sucks, some of the action scenes are good and some of the characters are annoying like Chief Lutz.... A loud and second rate sequel that took all the magic from the original and urinated on it and gift-wrapped it expecting to live up to the original but falls flat.

Some of the acting is okay but Beverly Hills Cop II is watchable at best and a million miles away from a good sequel. Watch Beverly Hills Cop instead and avoid this Beverly Hills Cop II made in 1987 by Tony Scott as it's pure crap.

.. Contains violence, nudity, bad language.
