I think if Beverly Hills Cop 4 released in theaters, I would’ve watched it and I think it would be better in my opinion instead of it being on Netflix
I agree I wish it was released in movie theaters. 🎬🎥🎞️🎟️🍿🥤
Some countries do realease them in theaters.
Just imagine when the first 3 came out Netflix didn’t even exist
I totally agree with you. It should’ve been in theaters ..
1) Beverly Hills Cop
2) Beverly Hills Cop 2
3) Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F
4) Beverly Hills Cop 3
3 is my favorite
@@dariuschisholm7317 can you explain how and why? Never ever heard anyone state this
2,1,4,3
@lachmack8967 well too bad being right isn't always easy lol and the villain 2 me is more memorable than the 2nd one
I would go:
4. Beverley Hills Cop III 4/10, it loses everything that made the first two so great and enjoyable
3. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F 7.5/10, really had a fun time. Still felt cheated we didn’t get the trio back 😭 but it’s more of what Beverly Hills Cop is
2. Beverly Hills Cop II 8/10, I think I might just find this one funnier than the first. It made Billy my favorite character in the franchise lol
1. Beverly Hills Cop 8/10, according to my dad, this is his favorite movie of all time. I can definitely see why. It’s fun and entertaining as heck :)
Mine is:
1. BHC: 8/10
2. Axel F: 7/10
3. BHC II: 7/10
4. BHC III: 5/10
Yeah I reckon most people will go with this order.
Uuuh what do you mean we didn't get the trio back in BCH Axel F?? Ofcourse we did and nearly everyone from the original returns for the 4th movie accept for Ronny Cox's Bogomil and how I miss Axels late boss inspector Todd RIP. All we get is Judge Reinhold back to work with Axel in the 3rd movie so maybe you got that mixed with the new movie. People make mistakes and I get that.
@@bryanrizzo9377 we didn’t get the trio back for a whole movie I meant.
@@NinthShinigamiyes I'm sure everyone who's a BHC fan including myself are well aware of that by now. At least for the third movie we got Judge Reinhold and Sayerge back and I wish people would stop hating on BHC3 so much. It's not as good as the first two movies but it's still worth it and its not bad. People should consider themselves grateful for having atleast Judge Reinhold back in part 3 because without him it wouldn't have even felt anything close to being a BCH movie.
It's always a good day when Sean Chandler Talks About uploads.
Great ranking Sean. My ranking from my favorite to my least favorite is
1. Beverly Hills Cop (5/5)
2. Beverly Hills Cop II (4/5)
3. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (3.5/5)
4. Beverly Hills Cop III (3/5)
This is the right list in my mind.
Stop hating on 3
@@dariuschisholm7317 I don't hate part 3 I just think it's the weakest out of the 4 films but I still enjoy it.
@@BluRayAddict1 I wouldn't say that the villain is more memorable than 2 and 4 was so predictable
4. Beverly Hills Cop III-An uninspired sequel with action sequences that aren’t as exciting, some strange cameos, flat humor, and worst of all, a sleepwalking Eddie Murphy playing Axel Foley
3. Beverly Hills Cop II-As a massive Tony Scott fan, I get a good bit of mileage out of this one for its action and style, even if the characters and gags aren’t in the same league as the original
2. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F-A solid, enjoyable return for this franchise that doesn’t do anything particularly fantastic, but instead, hits some nice nostalgia buttons in ways that don’t feel cheap or gimmicky
1. Beverly Hills Cop-One of Eddie Murphy’s absolute best by having sharp dialogue, a great energy, solid side characters in Rosewood and Taggart, and an effective story for the other elements to hang on, all making for a certified 80’s classic
How do you type that so quickly?

Come on now, the 2nd movie is superior compared to the new movie.
I mean it in all sincerity, unknowingly a ritual was created sometime ago where I watch a movie and then come here instantly to know what Sean’s thoughts are and it’s fascinating to see similar and sometimes polarising takes on films, trying to understand different perspectives really elevates the movie experience for me. And with the recent onset of Indian film reviews, I am here to stay for a long time.
This was worthy of a summer theatrical release. Eddie Murphy Is one of greatest ever. Dude saved SNL from being canceled.
Mine:
BHC II - Eddie Murphy dialed up to 11, having a great group dynamic with Ashton & Reinhold, best soundtrack, a feel-good movie. Plus the 1st time we see the now iconic Detroit Lions jacket in the franchise. 8/10
BHC - Fun, cool movie. Great Saturday afternoon movie. Well cast. Great soundtrack & funny movie. Harold Faltermeyer's score was perfect for the movie. Best female lead in Jenny Summers. 8/10
BHC:AF - Fun throwback with some great modern action (done practically). Some funny bits. Axel is back to form. Kevin Bacon was probably my favorite BHC villain. Good use of songs & score from the 1st 2 movies. 7/10
BHC III - Ugh... utter disappointment. Best things I can say about it are the action & setting most of it at an amusement park. But Axel feels like a shell of himself. In fact, most of the returning characters feel that way. Only Serge feels the same. 3/10
Interesting to hear the Beverley Hills Cop 2 criticism. You get more Axel comedy acting like Axel than the 1st film - the credit card skit, the bit to get the house from the builders, the entry to the gunclub, entry to 385 North, the playboy mansion, "do you like rap music" bit. It all landed.
Yeah exactly, it didn’t feel any less Axel than the first one
@@alexp601 I even forgot the bit with Gilbert Gottfried! How can anyone say there wasn't enough comedy in the 2nd film.. I don't get that at all
@@lachmack8967 for me, the 2nd elevates what the first one did. Yeah, it’s a bit samey, but it improves on everything the first one did.
I guess Eddie Murphy thought otherwise though, if he called it lazy and mediocre 🤷
My ranking of the Beverly Hills Cop movies
4. Beverly Hills Cop 3 (7/10)
3. Beverly Hills Cop (7/10)

1. Beverly Hills Cop 2 (8/10)
(If my ranking is off, this is my first time watching any of these movies.)
Your opinion is your opinion. No worries on what others think. #2 is my favorite of the series as well.
I think BH Cop II is Eddie Murphy firing on ALL CYLINDERS. 2 is not my favorite but it's my favorite Axel Foley
4. Beverly Hills Cop 3
3. Beverly Hills Cop Axel F
2. Beverly Hills Cop
1. Beverly Hills Cop 2
Personal I feel the second one is so much better then the 1st cuz the connection between the 3 are so well established and billy is so great and funny something they didn't let him be in the first one
4. Beverly Hills Cop III

1. Beverly Hills Cop
Wow you really put 4 over 2 0_0
@@alexp601Sean and I did also
@@Victory-in-YAHUSHA Yep, it’s still pretty crazy to me though
Here's my list:
1. Part II
2. Original
3. Axel F
4. Part III
Who knows what part 5 will bring
The 4th one was amazing tbh
Average
For me personally,
4) III 4/10
3) Axel F. 6/10
2) I 7/10
1) II 7/10, but I prefer it.
I really like Tony Scott's visual style. I just find it to be funnier than the original and has better action in it. The only weak link in this series is III, which is a shame b/c John Landis gave us "Trading Places" and " Coming to America", some of the funniest films of the 80's.
My Beverly Hills Cop Franchise Ranking:
1. Beverly Hills Cop (1984) 10/10
2. Beverly Hills Cop II (1987) 9/10
3. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024) 8/10
4. Beverly Hills Cop III (1994) 1/10
Seeing BHC 4 tonight
Same ranking as Sean
I am so shocked that 2 was put below 4, and that so many others are agreeing with that. I thought 2 was widely beloved. I feel like I’m in a bizarro reality 😅🙈
Maybe they were watching 2 and thought it was 4 lol 😂
@@TheRetroPizzaguy This is the only explanation 😂
It has plenty of fans, but as read in the video, even Eddie Murphy is very critical of the film.
@@SeanChandlerTalksAboutI just looked this up and Beverly Hills Cop II was probably the most successful mediocre picture in history," Murphy said. "It made $250 million worldwide, and it was a half-assed movie. Cop II was basically a rehash of Cop I, but it wasn't as spontaneous and funny [as the original].
Personally like most I think the 3 actors did better in the second one
For me, it is:
4. Beverly Hills Cop 3 (3.5/10): I found it way over the top at times, and it tried too hard to be funny
3. Beverly Hills Cop 4 (6.5/10): A good legacy sequel, but I wanted a bit more Rosewood and Taggart, and the daughter storyline was a bit generic
2. Beverly Hills Cop 2 (7.5/10): This is probably a guilty pleasure movie for me, with great action and a good plot
1. Beverly Hills Cop (8.5/10): The one that started it all. It's really funny at times, and I love the story. Mike was in the movie, which is always a plus. The music tune sticks in your head for days, but that works for all the movies
Sean and I share the same ranking! 👍
Same exact ranking as me except I liked Axel's daughter & their storyline in Axel F. I found it interesting how Axel's strengths & determination that made him a world class detective led to him being seen as somewhat of an absentee father by Jane. I don't think she was one note at all, there were several times where she'd start of get close to her dad again but he'd do something that'd once again put her back in that place that reminded her of the faults she sees in him. So that's why in the end when she told Grant, the main villain about that same determination that drove her crazy as a kid is going to be Grant's downfall. She saw that she was so important to him that he took a bullet & was ready to die for her, so in the end when they made up it felt earned.
I’m seeing Maxxxine in a few hours, really wanted to see your review before then. Also, these movies are really fun, I agree III is the worst
I wonder what Sean likes the most between Beverly Hills Cop, Lethal Weapon, Bad Boys, and Rush Hour? My fav is Rush Hour 2 (2001) among them all.
Lethal Weapon 1 & 2 were in his top 50 of all time list and the franchise was an honorable mention in his favorite franchises video so I believe that would be his favorite.
4. BHC Axel Foley 5/10, it's so forgettable and safe. The daughter sucks.
3. BHC 3 6/10, good opening scene and the villain is pretty damn good.
2. BHC 9/10, it's iconic and a classic
1. BHC 2 10/10, it has the perfect balance of action and comedy.
Here's mine
1. Beverly Hills Cop
2. Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F
3. Beverly Hills Cop 2
4. Beverly Hills Cop 3
"Re-using the Musical Cues from the Orignal FILM was a step in the wrong direction" Wait !! WHAT ??? -One of the major and essential STRENGTH of the original 1984 movie still is the ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK!! Hits like "Heat Is On", "Neutron Dance"' "Axel F Theme" and "Shakedown" from the 1987 sequel ARE ALL linked to Axel Foley and the franchise!! (Even those 2 Patty LaBelle songs are more popular on You-Tube these days, for real!!) It's an essential part of the NOSTALGIA that many of us wanted to "hear" in this 2024 sequel (along with new audio material of course) so it really connects to BHC-1 and 2 at least. You mentioned "The Force Awakens" can you imagine if Disney had done it without the main Star Wars Theme, seriously?? I rest my case. Other than that I agree 100% with your ranking, Also, great job with the interview cuts in your video.
4: Beverly Hills Cop III
3: Beverly Hills Cop II
2: Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F
1: Beverly Hills Cop
The brightness of BHC3 is one of the noticeable things as well as Axel's fast talking wasn't there as it was in the first 2. I thought BHC2 was just as good as the original
1. Beverly Hills Cop 2 - The best balance of action and comedy of the series.
2. Beverly Hills Cop 1 - The best pure comedy of the series.
3. Beverly Hills Cop Axel F - Wasn't very funny and lacked the energy of the first two.
4. Beverly Hills Cop 3 - 💩
One thing I don’t get about this movie why didn’t he move up and rank? How did Jeffrey become his boss? And how did Jhon become chief .. and at the end of movie he’s a sergeant again.
I think Cobra is what BHC could have been if they went on with Sly idea.
IMHO the second movie is the best of the franchise. This is just personal opinion.
I like Tony Scott movie photography with high contrast, color saturation and the yellow orange California sky. And the wide camera ratio as well is more to my liking.
There's more action and it's every bit as funny as the first one. Plus the trio get to spend more time together and do some shenanigans.
Third move is not as bad most people make it to be. It had the best villains up to that point.
My favorites Part 2. Part 1. And they have been some of my favorite movies. Part 3 should've been a serious movie as well. It's like they tried to screw it up.
Beverly Hill Cop 2 is the best one. Rosewood stepped up. It was still surrounded around Eddie. It’s more action, the villains was cool. 2. BHC1, 3. Part 4, 4 Part 3
1. Beverly Hills cop 2
2. Beverly Hills cop 1
3. Beverly Hills cop 3
4. Beverly Hills cop Axel Foley
Imagine Sylvester Stallone in Beverly Hills cop. Aye yo I’m Axel Foley Lol
The second movie is good but my problem with it is the aspect ratio. Number 2 being widescreen already killed the consistency. Then III going back to 16:9 and Axel F switching over to widescreen yet again just drives me nuts about the series 😬😬😬
I will never not remember Beverly Hills cop 2 as the film that won best movie at the kids choice awards
stallone has creed now eddie has axel f
If you're ever curious about a scenario like the Stallone Beverly Hills cop movie. There's this really cool youtube channel called bullets and blockbusters I would highly recommend it

IMO There is only one way to rank these movies. Number one at the top, number 3 at the bottom, and whichever one you prefer in the middle 2 spots. Mine would be the same ranking as Sean's.
The more I’ve thought about Axel F it is not a good movie, there are some pretty funny parts, but bad directing and some bad acting ruined it for me. No way it is better than Beverly Hills Cop 2, I think people are up on Axel F because it’s new but it is not a good movie
Agreed 100% BHC 2 is classic Eddy at his best! That movie had high energy and wasn’t stale like 4 the new movie had zero energy and felt like a crap tv show. The 3rd act and ending made it slightly more watchable but overall it was disappointing.
Your list is as good as mine.
4: Beverly hills cop 3: 5/10 I don't hate this as much as most people because I think it has entertainment value but it's still dull and axel Foley doesn't act like axel Foley
3: Beverly hills cop Axel F 7/10: a fun nostalgic return to this franchise but I can't stand Axels daughter
2: Beverly hills cop 2 7/10: a solid action comedy sequel that retains for the most part what I like about the original
1: Beverly hills cop 8.5/10: a fun original concept with plenty of laughs and action to keep me entertained from beginning to end
Do you always sound like that or you just make ya voice like that for the videos?
Angry Daughter was so uncomfortable to watch.
I would agree with your ranking
I like 3
4. BHC III
3. Axel F
2. BHC II
1. BHC
Beverly hill cop 2, 1 4 3
Ive always enjoyed your rankings until this one. I’m all about different opinions but there is no freaking way that the new BHC is anywhere in the same league as Beverly Hills cop 2!!! The second movie had high energy and was directed by someone who knew how to make an action comedy! It had some of the funniest Eddie Murphy moments ever! Nothing in this new movie felt original and the first hour was a low energy slog of Meh! It was like watching a bad tv show. Couldn’t stand the person playing his daughter, she sapped all the life out the first half of the movie! Thankfully the third act of the movie saved it from being worst than BHC 3. Originally i was so upset that this wasn’t in theatres until I saw it and now I’m thankful I didn’t pay to see it!
I agree I thought the new one was awful but I’m glad Sean liked it
Thanks! I’m glad someone else has this opinion so I don’t feel so crazy. Really ridiculous to put 4 over 2 in the rankings.
Yah I can’t understand how so many people are looking past the major issues with number 4. The first hour felt like it was in slow motion and lacked any sort of energy. The stuff with the daughter was heavy handed and dragged the movie down.to a snail pace. It could have been handled way better if the director had any experience making an action comedy. The last half of the movie was a lot better but still no way is it in the top two of the franchise. Maybe people need to re watch 2 but Each to their own I guess 🤷🏻♂️
I have to disagree with you regarding the daughter. I thought she worked well with him. Yes, the victim thing was a little long winded but I thought she played it well
I don’t know. It was so one note. She didn’t feel like she was actually foleys child.
@@SeanChandlerTalksAbout that was kind of the point with him not being there for her for however long. But slowly they showed the similarities between them. At least that's how I took it. We just see it differently and that's fine. I guess I somehow understand their relationship and that's not even due to anything I've gone through personally. I just somehow got it.
Axel F is better than Beverly Hills Cop 2 😱. I liked it but it's got scenes lifted from the first one, there's not enough use of the three of them, the plot gets over complicated, do black men always have to be bad fathers, do latinos always have to be the bad guys. I liked it but come on BHC2 is way better.
Axel F > Ride or Die
Is it really? 😮
@@ashwilliams7302 to me yes
Still no The Bear content is diabolical 😢
Couple of misspellings in here my friend
@@zackarydecicco3919 no*
Axel F ranks just abive 3 but is no way better than one and two.... this is a joke.
I would rank them in order. My faults with the new one are: not as strong of a villain, both in terms of the type of villain, but also the motivations because we have seen it many times before. Also, it didn’t have the same charm in my opinion as the other three.
The 3rd had no charm
Axel F is officially my least favorite legacy sequel thus far. I heard the budget was 150 million dollars and I’ve never had a harder time believing how much a film cost. Had to of been pocketed by most the cast id assume cause I thought this was shot like a fan made it. Terrible action, terrible story continuation that is once again recycled for the most part, waisted the legacy characters, etc.

Some people are gonna be shocked by my ranking:
1. Beverly Hills Cop 1
2. Beverly Hills Cop 4
3. Beverly Hills Cop 3
4. Beverly Hills Cop 2
So my reasoning for saying 3 is better than 2 is mainly because I'm not a Tony Scott fan. I'm more of a fan of his brother Ridley Scott. Plus the fact I honestly did like the idea of setting the film entirely in a theme park.
awful list, awful taste.
Everyone is entitled to their bad taste in movies lol that said I don’t know how anyone would think 3 and 4 is anywhere near as good as 2. The second one had the best Axel Folly cons of the franchise! He stole a freaken house 🏠 that screen alone is better than anything in 4 and 3. People need to re watch these movies and stop thinking cause 4 is new it’s better.
I don't know man. For me this character failed the most basic rule for any bad-ass cop/agent; Your name must start with "J". Jason Bourne, James Bond, Jack Reacher, John Wick and so on...
This movie was pure crap
