Like they said in Be Cool. Can’t do this. Thats why they did it and why de Palma killed the team in M:I intro. Subvert genre.

The main reason why this movie stinks is that terrible Amusement Park story. That set the corny tone for the entire movie. Why the hell?

RE: stevenmcpunisher- "These movies are about the comedy , they arent about the action scenes."
Funny you should say that because since the FIRST Beverly Hills Cop, all buddy cop action comedies that followed mimicked the same fourmula especially with their chase sequences.

1. No strip clubs
2. No tity shots
3. No classic Axel Foley humor
4. No cool 80's tune
5. Horrible cinematography
6. Horrible action
7. Too kiddish
8. No adult humor
9. Rosewood was a pussy
10. No European villians such as the first 2 films
    The problem I have with this film is why are people doubting Foley. Did they forget what he did in the BHC 1 and 2. He was a hero. It's like let's throw out everything from the other films and portray Foley as someone else. Also Foley is extremely clumsy in this film, compared to other films where he was cleaver.
    Big Blooper: No way in hell would security guards carry real guns at a family amusement park. They would carry more like stun guns. Also why so much security. Are they guarding a bank. No there guarding a beep amusement park.

BHC (the original) was a movie drawn from threadbare, mediocre and cliched material. That it ended up entertaining was due to the producers/director letting most of the main cast improv their scenes. By Part 3 you had a director whose best days were behind him and a leading man who was desperate to get back on 'top' that he no longer cared if he was half-assing it.

It just would have been better with more rosewood and taggert, I mean taggert wasn't even in the movie. The first two movies it was always a trio of miscreants getting into trouble, everybody was in on it. Also Paul Reiser and the guy who played Bogomil were essential for minor characters. Hector Elizando I love in general, but he was reallly annoying in this movie.
The plot wasn't any stupider than the first two movies, but shifting of the cast really screwed it up.

These movies are about the comedy , they arent about the action scenes. People wanna see Eddie Murphy do what he dose best.
I personally loved this movie.

er.. its a movie.
its NOT real.. for god sake.
it was a pretty decent movie.. no better or worse then the others.
and i love the cameo from Ray Harryhausen, thats the best bit.

The opening scene where those two fat guys start performing to the camera set the stupid tone for this dull, inane piece of sh!te. And then that ludicrous scene where Murphy is driving the red car and he's getting sprayed with machine gun fire and everything gets torn up except him that set the idiocy level for the action scenes throughout the rest of it. But at least Brigit Nielsen was't in it.

I love this movie. Probably because it
is
so different from the others, I never really cared for the others, I'm not a big action buff.

beep off u nerd stop overnanalysing it just enjoy the action and comedy on wot i thought was the best of the series u bell end

Him complaining about the ticket prices and then giving in and paying was just the exact oppoiste of what we'd expect from Axel Foley and it really just made no sense for him to do that.
I thought the opening 15 minutes at the car shop were good (minus the killing of Todd) but the rest of the movie just sucked.

Yes. It's because of John Landis. Yes he's not an action guy.

-The soundtrack was hammed up to sound moremodern? uhhh, yeah just bad also, the plot with the theme park was just plain stupid and pretty lame to be honest. And the Annihalator weapon was ridiculous and just idiotic. Does not compare with the prior two installments in the series at all, disappointing. Not surprised at all that this greatly underperformed at the box office when it opened. Too bad.

It just lacks the Action/humor mix the other two have. It never feels as gritty, even though the first two arent really THAT gritty mind you. However, even scenes that should be serious and have some weight to them, such as Todd getting killed, just seem like funny scenes minus the dialogue. Side note, the way Todd's death is handled and acted out by murphy is probably the worst bit of acting in the entire series. Absolutely terrible acting. If you cant remember it go back and watch it, its just poorly done. Anyway, that aside, I think the entire visual look of the film is to blame. It just fails.

When I was nine this was my favorite movie out of the three.
That's why this movie sucked.

How about the fact that Murphy played a totally different character in this movie then he did in the first 2???

The previous posts made some good points. When I watch the film I say what happen to the improv humor?????? The scene when Axel is trying to get into the amusement park he would've found a way to get in without having to pay.duh!!!!!
A weak script, plot, and direction! I think it was an attempt to make blockbuster money without a blockbuster script and team!
What made B.H.C. great besides Eddie was the supporting cast, improv humor, and yes the music even for that time the music help propel the story.

I enjoyed BHC III but it was nothing like the two others espicially the the BHC I because they stopped the laugh and it wasn'as funny

I agree with you on ALL those points but I don't think BHC III stunk, but it didn't measure up to the sheer genious of the first two films

Eddie had lost all the raw charm that made the first two classics. He looked as if he just dusted off that old Detroit Lions jacket and pretended to be Axel F. one more time, simply to complete the series as a trilogy (because you really couldn't market it as a series without the industry-standard three films).

I watched BHC 3 dozens of times growing up and yeah to be honest it is a little boring now, but i think that it was just targeting a younger audience who wernt around for the release of the first two. I remember getting so exiting when it was on telly. But i was only 7 or 8. I am now 18 and when i watch it i feel a bit to mature for it.
BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN IT STINKS..

YEAH GATOR,
John Ashton, Jeffery- Axel's co worker, Ronny Cox and murder of Inspector Todd are the reasons for me to dislike this film, i have the VHS Tape but havent watch it since late 90s. i just got to bored of it. The only part that i like on this movie was that Axel was driving that Red Camero While Fallen apart in pieces.
