When his boss is killed, Detroit cop Alex Foley (Eddie Murphy) finds evidence that the murderer had ties to a California amusement park called Wonder World. Returning to Beverly Hills once more, Foley reunites with Detective Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) to solve the case. Along with Billy's new partner, Jon Flint (Héctor Elizondo), they discover that the security force of Wonder World is actually part of a counterfeit money operation headed by park manager Orrin Sanderson (John Saxon).

Critics Consensus

Despite being set at an amusement park, Beverly Hills Cop III forgets to have any fun as it churns out uninspired violence and witless gags, with an uncharacteristically lethargic Eddie Murphy not helping matters.

Anderson Jones

Detroit Free Press

Wholly unsatisfying, we know every twist, turn and loop-de-loop of Beverly Hills Cop III. This is like a Wonder World rollercoaster we've been on way too many times. And it may be time for Eddie to get off and explore the rest of the park.

Rated: 2/4

Casey's Movie Mania

[Beverly Hills Cop III] falters with a misguided cross between the franchise’s action-comedy tropes and Die Hard on a Wonder World theme park.

...the picture’s overall success is due in no small part to its ongoing emphasis on scenes and sequences of a thoroughly agreeable nature...

A torture ride with little easygoing fun, Beverly Hills Cop III is a lifeless mess and a stain on director John Landis's career.

Filme legalzinho, o roteiro é bacana, eddie Murphy continua bom como axel foley ma dessa vez ele nao é tao engraçado que os outros filmes, o vilão é dono de um parque de diversões chamado wonder world, nesse filme tem mais cenas de tiro do que carro ou de perseguição e isso deixa o filme um pouco fraco,

Somehow I had managed to miss seeing this film until today. Given that they made the mistake of making number 4, I wrongly assumed that there had been something worthwhile in 3 that made them think let’s go again 30 years later. I was so wrong. Won’t waste much more time on this suffice to say this is total garbage.

Wow. I’ve avoided this film for 30 years. Thought I’d give it a go seeing as there’s now another one. This is awful. The only laugh I got was the Battlestar Galactica Cylon rip off. Avoid this like the plague.
