What to Know

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 Apr 26, 2022 Full Review Gene Siskel Chicago Tribune A dismal third outing for Eddie Murphy as Detroit cop Axel Foley. Rated: 1/4 Aug 16, 2017 Full Review Empire Magazine Really quite awful. Rated: 1/5 May 2, 2014 Full Review Cory Woodroof For the Win (USA Today) Even if the film isn’t very good, you can’t ever say this one is boring. Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Casey Chong 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. Rated: 2/5 Jul 4, 2024 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...the picture’s overall success is due in no small part to its ongoing emphasis on scenes and sequences of a thoroughly agreeable nature... Rated: 2.5/4 Nov 29, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Bruce W 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. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/01/24 Full Review Mark W 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. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/24 Full Review Boenna A I loved it! I love the background music when he goes through the hidden rollercoaster ride and finds out they’re printing money. I love the scene where he’s saving the kid from the roller coaster. All the fighting scenes were phenomenal. Great movie. The first three Beverly Hills cop movies were great. I didn’t like the 4th one that just came out. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/19/24 Full Review G M "Beverly Hills Cop III" brings Detroit cop Alex Foley back to Beverly Hills following the murder of his boss, leading him to uncover a counterfeit money operation at the Wonder World amusement park. Unfortunately, the plot feels contrived, and Eddie Murphy's performance lacks the spark that defined the earlier films. The comedy is flat, often failing to land, and despite the action scenes being competent, the film suffers from a sense of boredom and moments that feel overly cartoonish. The chemistry between the characters can't quite save a movie that ultimately feels like a forced sequel. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/13/24 Full Review Andrew R One of those sequels that give sequels a bad name. It’s like a caricature of the other two movies and unfortunately not in a good way. It’s maybe worth watching just to gawk at how sloppy the whole thing is Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/11/24 Full Review Promytius S I've only seen the original, and this one; I liked the first one, I liked the second one. I was pleased to see so many of the original cast. The plot is predictable, the gags and chase scenes are well down, I thought the editing made the most of what they had. If you like 80's cop comedies (kind of defined by the original) then you will find this worth the watch. It's not Oscar material. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review Read all reviews
