Summary: This week Axel Foley takes us to Wonder World, the second most magical theme park in all of California, in the third installment of the Beverly Hills Cop franchise. The story begins back in Detroit when a bust gone wrong ends up with Axel’s captain being killed in the line of duty. The trail to find the killer leads to California and Axel wastes no time getting back to the land of sun and fun. Once there, Axel learns who the killer is and teams back up with Billy Rosewood to take down a counterfeiting ring operating at the amusement park right under Uncle Dave’s nose. With a little help from the lovely Janice and the always entertaining Serge, Axel is able to get the bad guys and save the day. Why did they try to make this a toned down version of the previous two movies? Why didn’t Axel know that Taggert retired? How doesn’t everyone in the Beverly Hills Police Department know who Axel is? Shouldn’t he be really famous after his actions in the previous two films? What happened to all the glamour and glitz of Beverly Hills? Where can I get an Annihilator 2000? This is the third best of the Beverly Hills Cop movies but it is still worth a watch if you have a few hours to kill. Thank you for all of the love you continue to show us.
