Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

DeuceWild_77 Eddie Murphy was a symbol of the more flamboyant, uncompromising, politically incorrect and, above all, fun and entertaining 80's Era, but by the time the decade was over and the 90's arrived, this kind of actors and the peculiar genre of 80's lighthearted comedies started to go downhill in favor of a more matured, adult oriented comedies, but Eddie as a profitable mega-star with several hit movies and legions of fans, the studios tried everything they could to establish him for the new Era.Maybe his wisecracking screen personna didn't fit well in the general mood and tone of the 90's or the screenplays he started to receive were poor, the fact is that besides the Disney oriented "The Nutty Professor", which was a major hit everywhere, all of his movies were critically bashed or B.O. flops and "Beverly Hills Cop 3" was, deservedly, both.In the absence of Martin Brest who helmed the first movie and Tony Scott who directed the 'not so well received' sequel, John Landis was the perfect replacement for the director's chair, after all, he directed Murphy in two of his major hits: "Trading Places" ('83) & "Coming to America" ('88).The major problem was that at that time, Landis was far away from his glory days of comedy gold and Murphy was more interested in becoming the next action hero, following Wesley Snipes who also started on comedy, but was enjoying major success as a lead action star in such movies as "Passenger 57" ('92); "Demolition Man" ('93); "Rising Sun" ('93) or "Drop Zone" ('94).Murphy came back to the character of Axel Foley, playing him more mature & restrained and showing his dramatic side, as well trying to enhance him as a "man of action" too for the 90's decade, but he looks kind of lost in the role this time, like if the light he once had, switched off and he became a bit dull, playing it 'by the book' with more 'correctness' and less energy that didn't fit well in an once colorful, wisecracking and vivid character. Probably it was deliberated, as Murphy wanted to establish himself as a grown-up actor, but that simply didn't work.In the years between "BHC2" and this one, several screenplays were penned to conclude the trilogy, and the one that was actually filmed was certainly the worst, it lacks humour, it lacks excitement and in fact, it's a way boring film. The previous one also had a very childish approach to the villains' motifs and devices, but at least it had Murphy in his prime, improvising through the scenes; almost the same cast & crew; a frenetic pacing and stunning visuals, everything that "Cop III" don't have, just a generic & uninspired direction and passable photography. In the supporting cast, Judge Reinhold is back as Billy Rosewood, but John Ashton's absence as John Taggart is sorely missed, even with a great character actor as Hector Elizondo used as a "fill-in", the 'Laurel & Hardy' chemistry was gone. Ronny Cox & Paul Reiser also didn't come back and Gilbert R. Hill just appears in a tiny cameo as a favor to Eddie Murphy to give the Foley character a motif to go back to Beverly Hills (a re-hash from the first movie). Bronson Pinchot is hilarious as Serge as he was in the original, this time around with a bigger screen time and his scenes are some of the movie's highlights. Tim Carhart is a good main baddie, not as good as Steven Berkoff as Victor Maitland or Jurgen Prochnow as Maxwell Dent, but still leaves his mark of vileness to the franchise that always had great antagonists.In short, "Beverly Hills Cop 3" isn't a total disaster, it have its moments of humour (the "Ellis DeWald! Ellis DeWald! scene, when the viewer can glance the shades of the old Eddie Murphy playing Axel Foley) and some o.k. staged action sequences in the third act, but overall it's a bit depressing experience to follow, and even more if it was watched in a movie marathon of this franchise, after the brilliance of the first two...

ironhorse_iv Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't say, this third film in the 'Beverly Hills Cop' series, was good, because it's clearly not, but it's not as bad, as people make it out to be. This movie directed by John Landis is a guilty pleasure of mine. I love the whole amusement park, idea with its unique location, action scene pieces & stunt work. It is pretty impressive at the time, even some of those sequences were ruin by bad background effects, trigger happy security guards and awful stunt dummies. I also love that, it was filmed in California's 'Great America' theme park & Universal Studios Hollywood. This film wasn't generic, like certain people, say it was. It was very weird to see, the inner working of a theme park, back then. I kinda dig that. Plus, the humor that comes with it, works, as it really did satire Disneyland, quite well. Add the fact, that the movie has famous fantasy directors cameos, throughout the park scenes like George Lucas, Joe Dante & Ray Harryhausen make it somewhat fun to watch. Yet, I do, wish the whole investigation part of the film was better. I didn't like how, the resourceful, street-smart, Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) didn't use, too much of his iconic clever ways to get in and out of trouble. It was too easy for him. The hero, solve it, way too quickly. Even, his help, comes, really out of the blue, like park attendant, Janice (Theresa Randle) Their whole love interest, with each other, really comes out of nowhere. It's so forced. Another problem, with this film, is the fact that it's no longer, a flesh fish-out-of-water story. It has become routine and formulaic. Like really, what are the odds that the same Detroit cop, would return to the same location, in hope of solving a murder, for three different cases. That part of the story has really become, so clichés, tiresome, and somewhat bland. During the script's early drafts, the film's plot was going to be somewhat new, with Foley, Det. Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold), Sgt. Taggart (John Ashton) and Det. Jeffrey Friedman (Paul Reiser) going to London to rescue Captain Bogomil (Ronny Cox) who was being held hostage by terrorists, during an International Police Convention. It would be nice to see, what that film would have been like. After all, I heard that the Axel-in-London idea would likely have, actors, Sean Connery or John Cleese played him, Scotland Yard counterpart. Even, a crossover film with Paul Hogan as Crocodile Dundee in New York City was up on the table. However, numerous problems such as scripting issues, like the concept being too close to the storyline of the Michael Douglas's 1989 film, 'Black Rain' and budgeting caused this script to scrap by producers Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer, in order to do the much more expensive Wonder World plot. Original estimated at $55 million, production was temporarily shut down to allow the Paramount top brass the chance to get to grips with the film's spiraling budget. It soon become clear, that the film has really went over the budget, excess of $70 million. Of that budget, $15 million was Eddie Murphy's paycheck. To make it, much worst, pre-production to drag out to the point where both John Aston, Paul Reiser and Ronny Cox had to drop out due to obligations to other pending film projects. Bogomil's part was re-written as John Flint (Héctor Elizondo), and dialogue was inserted to explain that Taggart had retired, but not for Bogomil or Reiser's character, Jeffery. Because of this, the absence of these three characters, were somewhat felt. Yet, I have to say, Elizondo did pretty good in his role, to fill up, their roles, even if the script didn't do much, with his character. Plus, both Ashton and Cox have subtle cameos in this film in the form of a picture on Rosewood's desk of Foley, Taggart, Rosewood, and Bogomil on a fishing trip. It's suck that Reiser doesn't even get that. One surprising minor character that did return for this film, was Serge (Bronson Pinchot) from the original movie, who became a gun dealer in this. It's nice to see him, back, but the magic between him and Murphy has clearly die down, as it wasn't as funny as the first time. Despite what, Bronson Pinchot says about Murphy being depressed, during filming. I have to say, Eddie Murphy still makes this movie somewhat watchable. The jokes weren't half bad. I kinda laugh at Axel, even if Murphy wasn't trying that hard to make us, laugh. There were still, a small bit of his trademark wiseass snark in the film. It wasn't all depressing. I just wish, Murphy didn't felt that Beverly Hill Cop III was the movie that he would start to act like a serious mature actor. It clearly wasn't the best choice, as he later, regret, not allowing the 'edginess' of Axel to kick it in this film. He says, he can only hope to reprise the role, in the near-future. Talks of a fourth film have been going on for the past few years. I really don't see it, happening soon since Landis and Murphy both refuse to work with each other and somewhat semi-retired, since then, but who knows, what the future may bring. Maybe, one day in the future, we might hear the iconic 'Beverly Hills Cop' theme song from composer, Harold Faltermeyer once more, but until then, I have to say, 'Beverly Hills Cop III' was indeed the weakest of the three, but it's far from being the worst Eddie Murphy movie, out-there. Overall: I think it, deserve another watch. 'Beverly Hills Cop III' still has some laughs to be had.

jramza-1 1. Terrible scripting. Choppy editing (I could do better with a VHS MACHINE). This made the acting seem 2-dimensional and uninspired. That said, the script and screenplay were a mess, with stilted dialogue and humor-intended situations where they all but used a laugh track on punchline. It was NOT funny. Really- not funny at all. Not believable. For example, if a cop SEES someone murder a person, and the murderer later even openly confesses to that cop - why would the cop then have to prove it? What's left to prove?? THE COP IS AN EYEWITNESS. AN EYEWITNESS!! (2) machine guns are useless in this movie; WHO COULD MISS WITH A MACHINE GUN?!? Yet everyone does- CONSTANTLY. People do things in this movie that defy logic, reality, or both. Bad guys shoot people in public (in the open) but they use a suppressor, so nobody notices (SERIOUSLY?!?). A cop is attacked, it's filmed; but when they play it back its been terribly edited and minutes removed; yet still this proves nobody attacked him ? A guy turns a carnival ride off and on, which sends it into meltdown, cables break, and it falls apart. Ummm. No. I loved Bev Cop I (I rated it 9/10). This was not just disappointing, it was pathetic. Not worth the electricity to watch it free on TV. (Oh, and it was not funny.).

Steve Pulaski Beverly Hills Cop III is littered with a lack of inspiration and excitement when, considering its genre, it should be overflowing with those attributes. It's so uninspired and redundant that it actually makes me recall its unremarkable but not wholly irredeemable predecessor with a certain fondness. Its predecessor suffered from a lack of interest in trying anything new with its material, but at least it featured a strong performance by Eddie Murphy and some engaging direction by Tony Scott. This film can barely muster up the energy to make you want to watch it until the end credits.The film, once again, concerns Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy), the wise-cracking street cop who was ejected from the streets of Detroit, where every bad neighborhood was dealt with the "hard knocks" way to Beverly Hills, where affluence and extravagance takes place. But even in the wealthy area comes crime, as we learn about a band of counterfeiters who are rampantly printing money and are also responsible for the murder of Foley's boss. With his best friend and partner Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) by his side at all times, Axel begins scoping out a local theme park by the name of Wonder World, which is the likely source for this criminal activity. The problem is that the theme park is patrolled around-the-clock by corrupt security officials and guards, aware of the illegal activity at hand, but uninterested in reporting it, and making Foley look like a delusional, mentally unstable man for thinking so (not hard, when you run around wailing a gun and shouting).The first film in the Beverly Hills Cop franchise was a big winner in my book, bearing frequent laughs due to Eddie Murphy's constant, zealous comic ability and delivery combined with Martin Brest's terrific direction, which blended the action and comedy together fittingly and excitingly. The sequel, on the other hand, had some considerable charm, given Murphy was still on top of his game and changing directors from Brest to Tony Scott wasn't a bad move, given Scott's incredible ability at action setpieces, however, the film had a frustrating inertness when it came to wanting to try something new and different.With the third film, all energy and hope is lost, starting with a criminal move by writer Steven E. de Souza to undermine Murphy's comedic talent, giving him a more traditionalist, interchangeable cop persona rather than one that has ability to excite or provide substantial comedy. Murphy looks tired and ferociously unamused with the film, as if de Souza wrote the Beverly Hills Cop III in a vindictive manner, not giving any thought to what made the first two films click so well to even warrant the creation of a third film. In addition, the action just isn't there from a directorial standpoint, which is shocking considering John Landis was the man behind the camera, the same man who made The Blues Brothers such a powerhouse flick in terms of its action setpieces.It's as if you took Hollywood's two most promising names at the time and made them do something they would normally do in such a lackadaisical manner. In addition, the time period doesn't feel right either. Shot ten years after the first film kickstarted this franchise in 1984, Beverly Hills Cop III feels stuck in the wrong era, as the famous theme song "Axel F" begins to take on aggravating, repetitive heights after blending so well with the cheesy, eighties aesthetic in the first two films. Not to mention, cheesy eighties cop films were a staple, where most nineties films of the same genre feel like cloying ripoffs or inferior distractions from the abundance of capable ones we once witnessed.There's one great scene in Beverly Hills Cop III, which takes place in Wonder World after a gigantic, complex roller-coaster ride stopped working due to park/security incompetence. Foley has to resort to saving two young children, stuck on the ride, about to fall to their deaths by almost cheating death, climbing all over the ride in every which way. The scene is suspenseful and works, so much so, that I would've rather seen Murphy rescue the other ten, eleven, or twelve people on the ride for the remaining hour or so than endure what mediocrity Beverly Hills Cop III threw at me.Starring: Eddie Murphy and Judge Reinhold. Directed by: John Landis.
