Sinopsis(1)
La divertida actuación de Eddie Murphy como el Detective Axel Foley logró que Superdetective en Hollywood fuese una de las películas más taquilleras de la historia del cine. Foley es un impetuoso e inteligente detective de Detroit, que sigue la pista del asesino de un amigo suyo hasta los barrios más elegantes de Beverly Hills. Pero antes de que Axel logre su objetivo, va a verse involucrado en una red internacional de contrabandistas y traficantes de droga. Una trepidante aventura, en suma, que prueba que la diferencia entre una comedia realmente buena y una comedía óptima es Eddie Murphy. (Cinema International Corporation)

Eddie Murphy is the only thing worth paying attention to, without him, it's just an average and ordinary-looking action B-movie with zero ambitions. But Murphy's verbosity and a ton of gags (though sometimes awkward) at least make the film somewhat decent, with a screenplay as naïve as the rest of the cast. The nostalgia of the 80s is pleasant even today. Axel Foley is undoubtedly one of the best roles in Murphy's not particularly likeable and stunning career, but for those who don't appreciate his mild sarcasm, contagious laughter, and a million words, I recommend switching the channel.

I hadn't seen the movie in a long time, and I certainly didn't remember it being this good. Eddie Murphy's loquaciousness and some of the gunfights aside, Beverly Hills Cop is exceptional mostly because of the characters and how they gradually grow closer. Of course, that's to be expected, but it's still a joy to see how, thanks to Foley's vivaciousness, all those initially uptight cops slowly melt away and start to have fun until they're downright enjoying themselves by the end.

Axel Foley. This character of the cheeky and incredibly funny Detroit cop catapulted Eddie Murphy to the very top of Hollywood during his time. And rightfully so... Because Beverly Hills Cop is among the best that world cinema of the 1980s had to offer. I enjoyed the ride where, as a viewer, you laugh at every turn, whether it’s the gags themselves or just the whole situation. Murphy must have been born to be a prankster; such a natural talent is rare among comedic actors. When you add the hilarious duo of Beverly Hills detectives who handle Foley, you’re set for exceptional success. And last but not least, it’s worth highlighting the catchy main theme by the master Harold Faltermeyer. Yeah, I’d gladly revisit this over time. For me, it’s a strong 8/10.

I'm catching up on my backlog, and as it turns out, this film is part of it. I probably caught glimpses of this action comedy on TV now and then, but I didn't watch the whole thing, and it didn't leave much of an impression on me. Now I've finally seen the whole film and I have to admit it's pretty good in places and Eddie carries it well, but I didn't see much else in it. Except for that great melody that everyone knows thanks to the frog.
