News summary

Eddie Murphy returns as Axel Foley in 'Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F,' the fourth installment of the iconic series, now streaming on Netflix. Directed by Mark Molloy, the movie features Murphy teaming up with his daughter and old friends to solve a new case in Beverly Hills, while also incorporating themes of family and aging. The film has received mixed reviews, with critics describing it as a nostalgia-driven 'cash grab' that lacks innovation but still entertains with some funny moments and action sequences. Despite the criticism, it holds a 65% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a 78% audience score. The nostalgic elements, such as the iconic soundtrack, have been praised for capturing the essence of the original films. Murphy's performance, though charming, is noted to be coasting on his established persona rather than offering something new.
