Beverly Hills Cop III Reviews
Even if the film isn’t very good, you can’t ever say this one is boring.
| Jul 16, 2024
[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.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 4, 2024
...the picture’s overall success is due in no small part to its ongoing emphasis on scenes and sequences of a thoroughly agreeable nature...
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 29, 2022
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.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 26, 2022
One of the worst action movies of the '90s.
| Feb 7, 2022
This time around, the situations aren't nearly as funny or thrilling as in the last two entries and Murphy appears far less enthusiastic and energetic.
| Original Score: 3/10 | Sep 10, 2020
easily the worst entry in the series-an almost shockingly dull police procedural set in a fictional amusement park that lacks the first film's brash fish-out-water comedy and the second's visual bombast
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 11, 2020
A routine programmer.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 19, 2020
A dismal third outing for Eddie Murphy as Detroit cop Axel Foley.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 16, 2017
Looks like it's time for Axel Foley to hang up his Detroit Lions jacket and retire his badge and gun.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | May 2, 2014
Really quite awful.
| Original Score: 1/5 | May 2, 2014
Murphy's trademark delivery is still impudently subversive, but it's too often wasted on unworthy opponents.
| Original Score: 2/4 | May 2, 2014
It's one of the most cynically engineered sequels ever.

Beverly Hills Cop III is resoundingly joyless.
| May 2, 2014
Landis relies on routine action -- and cameos by such noted filmmakers as George Lucas, John Singleton, Martha Coolidge and others -- to hide the fact that there's no engine under his movie's hood.
| Original Score: 2/4 | May 2, 2014
The movie is like an advertisement for the 19 recently banned assault weapons.
| Original Score: 2/4 | May 2, 2014
The mix of violence and laughs never gels, the rejoinders are snapless, the pace slack.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | May 2, 2014
Beverly Hills Cop III -- a movie trying to exploit what's left of a 10-year-old idea -- has some nerve satirizing Disney World's money-grubbing commercialism.
| Original Score: 2/4 | May 2, 2014
If Murphy looks bored by the whole thing, that fine character actor Hector Elizondo adds some genuine quirkiness.
| Original Score: 2/5 | May 2, 2014
BHCIII features one great stunt but a dearth of laughs.
| Original Score: 2/5 | May 2, 2014
