Beverly Hills Cop 3 ★½ 1994 (R)

Yes, Detroit cop Axel Foley (Murphy) just happens to find another case that takes him back to his friends on the Beverly Hills PD. This time he uncovers a criminal network fronting WonderWorld, an amusement park with a squeakyclean image. Fastpaced action, lots of gunplay, and Eddie wisecracks his way through the slow spots. Reinhold returns as the still impossibly naive Rosewood, with Pinchot briefly reprising his role as Serge of the undeterminable accent. Critically panned boxoffice disappointment relies too heavily on formula and is another disappointing followup. 105m/C VHS, DVD . Louis Lombardi, Eddie Murphy, Judge Reinhold, Hector Elizondo, Timothy Carhart, Stephen McHattie, Theresa Randle, John Saxon, Alan Young, Bronson Pinchot, Al Green, Gil Hill; D: John Landis; W: Steven E. de Souza; C: Mac Ahlberg; M: Nile Rodgers.
