Beverly Hills Cop 3 (1994) Movie Review

PLOT

While investigating a car theft ring, Axel Foley stumbles upon a much larger operation: the same men who killed his boss are running a counterfeit money ring out of a theme park in Los Angeles.

REVIEW

*Beverly Hills Cop III* attempts to reproduce the charm of the earlier films, but falls short in various ways. Compared to the first and second films, this chapter falls short, making it the franchise's poorest entry. While it begins with explosive action, it quickly deteriorates. Eddie Murphy's portrayal is more serious, which means fewer jokes and less energy than in prior films. The humor feels inconsistent, and the plot lacks the sharpness and cohesion of previous installments. This time, the plot is less compelling, with predictable twists. It follows Axel Foley's investigation into his boss's death against the backdrop of an amusement park. Overall, the picture lacks the charm of its predecessors.

REVIEW After 30 years, Axel Foley returns to Beverly Hills. Netflix has revived the franchise, delivering the fourth installment with Eddie Murphy reprising his iconic role. As Axel Foley, Murphy embodies the rule-breaking, street-smart, foul-mouthed, and fast-talking cop from Detroit. Watching Eddie Murphy in the "Beverly Hills Cop" franchise is always a delight, and he remains the heart of the movie. Murphy still has the same charm he exhibited in the original films, though the jokes don't quite hit as hard as they used to. However, there are still a few laughs to be found. The story pick

PLOT The Watchers follows Mina, a 28-year old artist who gets stranded in an expansive, untouched forest in western Ireland. When Mina finds shelter, she unknowingly becomes trapped alongside three strangers that are watched and stalked by mysterious creatures each night. REVIEW When you hear an unexpected noise when alone in your room, it sends shivers down your spine. No one likes the feeling of being watched, and the thought is enough to creep anyone out. This film taps into the fear of the unknown with that concept plus sound effects. The hauntingly gorgeous backdrop of Ireland's enormous woodlands and craggy landscapes heightens the sensation of isolation. Mina is on a journey when her car breaks down, stranding her in the forest. She soon meets three other lost people, and together they seek sanctuary in an unusual building with one wall totally made of glass, reflecting only their own images. Every night, they are stalked by mysterious creatures that observe them through
