Banana in my tailpipe
By KenTM (10 reviews) from Oxford, England , 02 Jun 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
Brilliant. The reason why Eddie Murphy can spend 10 years in the cinematic equivalent of a coma and still be considered a box office draw.
Beverly Hills Cop follows a pretty bog standard (in fact, below standard) buddy cop plot, and as the villain Steven Berkoff is utterly forgettable. The joy of this film is not the policier/action element, however (although an opening sequence which is classic Simpson/Bruckheimer might initially indicate otherwise). This film is what it is for the comedy. The classic pairing of John Ashton and Judge Reinhold as the beleaguered husband/dappy housewife cop partners and the sublime cameo by Bronson Pinchot give Murphy the platform he needs to cut loose. Had this been a Stallone film (as the extras reveal it almost was) no-one would remember it (Stallone used the elements originally written for him in the film Cobra - anyone remember that one? Exactly).
This is Eddie Murphy's moment in the limelight, and everything makes sense once you've seen it.- Was this review helpful to you?

Aged Well
By EllsieBettie (6 reviews) from Cannock , 08 Sep 2008Revisiting this film to introduce it to my son, what struck me most was how well the story has aged. The 80s styling and fashion hits you like a brick wall and makes you feel quite old if you remember it from your teens. Eddie Murphy et al. are superb in their slightly stereotypical roles that may be difficult to get away with were the film to be made today. A real feel good film that my son loved.- Was this review helpful to you?
