Is Beverly Hills Cop III better than part 1 or 2? No. Does that make it a bad film. Of course not. There are some good qualities to this film that makes it enjoyable. First the villain was much better than part 2. Using an amusement park as the base location of Axel Foley's investigation gave it a unique feel instead of running all over Beverly Hills again. That we have seen 2 times. Eddie Murphy was his usual Axel Foley self while Judge Reinhold returns as the goofy Billy Rosewood. The biggest problem was audiences were not ready for another Beverly Hills Cop movie and to live up to the previous two was impossible with not having the full cast from the previous films. Overall I have watched this numerous times. Plenty of action and laughs make this an entertaining film.

Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy), while investigating a car theft ring, comes across something much bigger than that: the same men who shot his boss are running a counterfeit money ring out of a theme park in Los Angeles.This film generally gets a bad rap, being accused of being the worst in the series. Even director John Landis has distanced himself, saying that Murphy was going through a rough time in his life and was not giving it everything he had. These may be fair comments, but the film is still better than given credit for.Maybe not as funny as the first two, and maybe Murphy is more toned down, but there is still plenty of fun here from Bronson Pichot and others... not to mention an overall decent script. Even just trying to identify the director cameos is a fun game.

A sequel to "Beverly Hills Cop" is tricky. Our hero is always 2,000 miles away from the title setting, and it takes a suspicious death to get him out to the coast. And they were pushing it with the second movie. But here's a movie with a completely different (and awkward) tone from the first two films. "III" feels surprisingly more family-friendly (despite the F-bombs) with Eddie Murphy running amok in a faux- Disneyland theme park. There's lots of shooting and profanity, but none of the edge this series is known for. Not only that, but Murphy (despite getting to play superhero while saving some kids from a park ride) seems oddly listless this time around. It's hard not to laugh at least once during an Eddie movie, but I don't think I did once, here. It's an array of jokes that fall flat. It's not just that "Beverly Hills Cop III" is lifeless, but it's a bad Eddie Murphy movie, a bad John Landis movie, and everything that's supposed to be funny . . . isn't.4/10

I hoped that this would be also like the two previous films action , comedy with a few words another hit in generally. I was very disappointing seeing this : 1.First of All - It has a few jokes and very less comedy 2.The movie was like a Disneyland Creation 3.The most weak performance by Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop Series 4.The real action that can be called is in the beginning the other actions that were absolutely ridiculous 5.There were a few moments and a few stuff that made it a little bit more to watch but it's maybe the worst film that Eddie made . Really disappointed by Eddie I give this movie 5.9 out of 10 and just because Axel Foley was in it :D
