How You Doin?
You won’t have the fresh smell of air-fried popcorn when you watch Beverly Hills Cop 4 next summer, 2024.
The professional-grade cinema speakers’ surround sound pounding like a discotheque 60-inch Dolby won’t drive the rhythm into your heart on the big silver screen, which will be missing. But the infectious smile of Eddie Murphy will be the same.
You’ll have to settle for the action-packed fun on your 60-inch TV in your living room. Netflix promised that Beverly Hills Cop 4 would be a pulsating ride as the first installment that arrived in movie theaters in 1984 — almost 40 years ago.
I bet the great Futurist George Orwell didn’t see this one coming. Bus, he’s back. Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop 4.
This time around, while you’re burning down the Neutron Dance, Rappers spicing the melodies will accompany the beats with braggadocios storied lines. The Netflix trailers show more fireworks than a July Fourth fireworks show. As in the previous three series, some of Hollywood’s best stunt performers perform car crashes with AI enhancements.
And what would the fourth installment of Beverly Hills Cop 4 be without Eddie Murphy’s character sporting his vintage trademark Detroit Lions jacket? How you doing?
Between 1984 and 1994, Murphy starred in Beverly Hills Cop 1, 2, and 3. Legendary producer Jerry Bruckheimer will return to produce the fourth installment; director Mark Molloy will join him. Murphy and his old team (co-stars Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Paul Reiser, and Bronson Pinchot) will have to work to make this film a go.
Critics panned the 1994 Beverly Hills Cop trilogy. The storyline is familiar to those who have seen the previous three flicks. Axil Foley ends up in California (2400 miles out of his jurisdiction) investigating the death of an old acquaintance. Not in Mark Furhman’s town; in real life, Fuhrman would have Murphy (Axil Foley) hanging from a tree.
