Review of Beverly Hills Cop (1984) by Christopher_G2 — 15 Jul 2016

For me Beverly Hills Cop has age far from perfectly. Compared to other Murphy 80's hits like Trading Places and 48 Hours, both which still hold as some of the better mainstream flicks from early in the decade, this film, which was a massive box office hit, shows it's weaknesses in originality and intelligence.

Murphy is very good, and it's certainly funny enough to recommend, but it lacks a certain wit, and the ending is really cliche.
