Eddie Murphy is the GOAT.. I’ll watch anything he does.

But for the past decade he’s felt off his game. These remakes are missing that spark of Eddie charm or something.

I have a feeling this one will be the same. Still it feels good to see him back for another. Can’t wait 🙌

It is quite clear thatBeverly Hills Cop 4is turning heads, and fans will finally have a decent buddy cop comedy in a long time. Fans are also hoping that the film will be a massive improvement over the previous threequel, which almost ran the franchise to the ground. Funnily enough, it also features as a callback in the trailer.
