Movie Review: Axel F

Beverly Hills Cop 3

Beverly Hills Cop Axel F. Was a phenomenal flick. If you are a fan of the franchise it takes you back to the 80s, while still in 2024.

Axel Daughter out in L.A. is in trouble so he heads out there from Detroit to see what’s up.

The movie is hilarious, and full of Easter eggs, waiting to be seen.

We get a chance to revisit some old characters while running into some new ones such as Captain Grant played by Kevin Bacon. 

Kevin Bacon is great in every part he plays. In a recent interview, the actor said that starring in a Beverly Hills Cop movie. With Eddie Murphy was a bucket list item.

It’s great seeing Eddie Murphy as Axel Foley up to his old tricks and dealing with his estranged daughter played by Taylour Paige.

It was awesome to have the original sound track played through out the movie, and to see the action and humor again, along with new songs.

The only thing missing was Eddie Murphy’s iconic laugh. Which he stated in a recent interview, Took some effort to get rid of. He did not want to be remembered for just a laugh.

Although, in this hard world. It’s nice to hear a laugh you remember.

Beverly Jill’s Cop, Axel F. Is directed by Mark Molloy and written by Tom Gormican, Will Beall, Kevin Etten

It is playing on Netflix. It’s a wonderful ride from beginning to end.

Coffee And A Glazed Donut

Flash Fiction by Armand Rosamilia Amanda said it as a joke, but Mel looked at her like she was serious. The boy had no sense of humor. Mel opened his mouth and closed it several times, like a trout she’d once caught in Dunn Creek and held in her arms for too long. Her deddy…

Cult Crashing

Flash Fiction by Jay Honstetter Whenever I tell anyone I’ve joined a new cult they look at me like I’m some kind of asshole.

Flash Fiction by Jesse Binger I find people. Skip tracer some like to call it. Bounty Hunter. You’ve all seen the show. But me? I call myself the Retriever. Had a golden as a kid.
