Goddamn this is the worst film ever made!!! How does Axel have a Ferrari and thousand dollar suits? That would wipe out the entire Detroit police department's budget completely.
Why is Lieutenant Bogomil's shooting in Beverly Hills on the news in Detroit? How the F - uck does Axel get through on the first phone call attempt? And the operator immediately recognizes him??? Goddammit Eddie, your ego needs to be put in check.
And Oh my Fu __ ck. The scene in Rosewood's apartment where they all start singing the Dating Game is gayer than the volleyball scene in Top Gun.
Why does Axel have time to relax in his pool and go to strip clubs when LT Bogomil is in intensive care?
How could these idiots drive around LA and Beverly Hills destroying property, starting fires and causing multiple accidents without being arrested? Aren't they supposed to be police officers?
Why do Bogomil's sneakers have more mud on them than the bottom of the Mississippi? Yeah, he was jogging near an oil field. Don't you think he would have cleaned his shoes before coming inside the house?
This movie sucks. I could go on and on, but I'll stop here. Eddie Murphy was such a cocky son of a bitch in 1988, I bet he looks back on this with such humiliation. If he doesn't, he should. -

BHC 3 was an obvious attempt to re-take the Landis/Murphy glory days of Trading Places and Coming To America. Absolutely dreadful film. One of the many franchises where only the first installment is worthy.

I saw Beverly Hills Cop at the cinema at the cinema and loved it. BHC2 got terrible reviews and I refused to see it on the grounds it would tarnish my memories.
Alas, 25 years later, I have finally watched the sequel.
How bad was it? I'm just glad I have had 28 years of happy memories before this steaming turdfest polluted my brain.
Weak, woeful, crass, unfunny, insulting. -

-This is explained in the movie. Ins. Todd complains about this during his scene that Axel is basically extorting money more toward looking good than actually cracking the credit card fraud case he was undercover on. Bogomil's shooting made the news obviously because a cop was shot in broad daylight in the middle of Beverly Hills. The operator recognizes Axel's name because of what happened in the first film, taking down Victor Maitland whom was a high profile art dealer would generally make someone popular around those parts and I'm sure Taggart and Rosewood had stories to tell about their cop buddy from Detroit.
And Oh my Fu __ ck. The scene in Rosewood's apartment where they all start singing the Dating Game is gayer than the volleyball scene in Top Gun.- Um, whatever. Nothing is more gay than the volleyball scene in Top Gun, nt even Rocky and Apollo frolicking in slo-mo on the beach in Rocky III.
Why does Axel have time to relax in his pool and go to strip clubs when LT Bogomil is in intensive care? - Bogomil was still in a coma so he wouldnt have known he was there anyway. Axel was waiting for his buddies in the lap of luxry til they got there. They went to a strip clubif you paid attention because Bogomil had a newspaper clipping of the place and Themopolis, the arms dealer accomplice in the alphabet crimes was known to hang out there.
How could these idiots drive around LA and Beverly Hills destroying property, starting fires and causing multiple accidents without being arrested? Aren't they supposed to be police officers? - Its a buddy-cop action film, you can say the same for Lethal Weapon or Bad Boys. Its kind of a signature for the genre to have a crazy disaster-leaden car chase scene.
Why do Bogomil's sneakers have more mud on them than the bottom of the Mississippi? Yeah, he was jogging near an oil field. Don't you think he would have cleaned his shoes before coming inside the house? - Story beat. If Axel didnt recognize the mud, then Dent and his crew probably would've gotten away.
This movie sucks. I could go on and on, but I'll stop here. Eddie Murphy was such a cocky son of a bitch in 1988, I bet he looks back on this with such humiliation. If he doesn't, he should.
-This film was released in 1987. However, its pretty well known that it was released at the height of Eddie Murphy mania in the 1980s.
You win some, you lose some. But you live, you live to fight another day.
- Um, whatever. Nothing is more gay than the volleyball scene in Top Gun, nt even Rocky and Apollo frolicking in slo-mo on the beach in Rocky III.

Take a freakin chill pill and relax, it's not documentary and some parts are exagerated yes, it's a action-comedy flick so thats what it's supposed to be about If you wanna hate , go bash on the 3rd installement at least, now thats a pile of steamy crap!!

The movie relies too much on Axel Foley's scamming technique when dealing with receptionists, maitre'ds and security guards. This was a summer sequel and Simpson and Bruckheimer were eager to get another Tony Scott film with the new hip look of Top Gun out there. Sequel-wise, this movie was kind of late as a sequel to the first film. 1984 and 1987 were so different that what worked in the first, like the style of music in much of the soundtrack, just sounded dated in the sequel.

Whenever I think of
BHCII
I first and foremost think of reading Leonard Maltin's review. He said that
BHCII
is a "contrived, cold hearted, and misogynistic sequel" that has "mediocre music, few laughs, and a ridiculous story". All credibility was tossed aside from the very start when Ronny Cox (Bogomil) is seen discussing a fishing trip w/ Axel Foley.
