Beverly Hills Cop (1987) Movie Review

PLOT

Beverly Hills Cop II tells the story of Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy), a Detroit cop who returns to Beverly Hills after his friend and superior, Captain Bogomil (Ronny Cox), is shot. Foley teams up with detectives Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and John Taggart (John Ashton) to investigate a string of crimes tied to a criminal mastermind.

REVIEW

Beverly Hills Cop II" is the sequel to "Beverly Hills Cop" (1984). The premise stays the same, but with more action and a deeper detective plot, building on the original film's basics. Eddie Murphy shines as the main star, providing his trademark loud, rule-breaking performance. The original supporting actors return and do a great job, maintaining their chemistry and adding to the film's appeal. The action is more intense, featuring numerous explosions and extensive damage. This time, there are more detective sequences, adding depth to the storyline. While the plot is predictable, with the bad guys' actions revealed early on, the film remains a fun comedy about a group of police officers solving a crime.

The movie's catchy soundtrack, 80s vibes, and Eddie Murphy's charismatic crime-solving make it an entertaining watch. It's rated R for violence, gunfire, and shooting scenes.

Borderlands (2024) Movie Review

Borderlands (2024) : A wasted Opportunity  IMdb - 4.3 Rotten Tomatoes (Critics) - 9% | (Audience) - 52% Genre - Action, Sci-Fi Runtime - 1 hour 40 minutes  Rating - PG 13 Review There are some great video game adaptations like "The Last of Us" and "Fallout", and then there are bad ones like "Borderlands" The story follows a rich man named Atlas who hires Lilith, played by Oscar winner Cate Blanchett, to find his missing daughter on the chaotic and lawless planet Pandora, which is also Lilith's home.

Roland rescues Tina from a prison and escapes with her to Pandora. Tina also meets a new friend named Krieg, who is big, muscular, and wears a mask. He instantly becomes her protector, but there’s no real explanation for why. Lilith also encounters a robo...

Civil War (2024) Movie Review

  Plot The story is set in a dystopian near-future America in a civil war. A team of military-embedded journalists traveling from New York to Washington, D.C to interview the President before rebel factions attack the White House. Review   The movie does not provide a clear explanation of how and why the war started. All we know is in the distant future, some Western forces are trying to kill the president. So, people looking for political reasons might not be satisfied. As four journalists journey across the country to interview the president, they encounter a lawless, apocalyptic world divided by small armed groups due to the civil war. It is on the road trip that the film successfully shows us the war's impact on civilians and the harsh realities of life in a fragmented America as realistically as possible. The film also successfully shows us the terror and sacrifices journalists endure to get their stories. It showcases the dangers of their profession, especially during wa...
