#react #reaction - บันเทิง
stunt artists still don't have a category at the Oscars. they're performing on screen, writing and directing entire sections of movies. it's insane.
Someone who reacted to this did a slow motion breakdown of the scene where Axel throws the hitman into the buffet at the Harrow Club (and wrecks it!)
He pauses on the stuntman, who is a good 50 pounds heavier than Eddie Murphy and looks nothing like him and plays Arnold's reaction to the Predator "What the hell are you?" It's then that I realize, stuntmen are basically the real action movie magicians. I ALWAYS thought it was Eddie in that shot!
I say this a lot. I don't know any stunt people, but after I saw a documentary on a guy named Dar Robinson, I can't unsee the injustice. It's crazy.
@TheBestPill-no2xp same thimg with pro wrestlers, who let alone don't get considered for awards, but aren't even considered for SAG AFTRA, despite being the lead actors, writers and stunt performers themselves on televised live scripted episodic dramas.
like, if you improvise and script a family tv show, the performers get union consideration. if they then do live stunts on top of that, suddenly they don't deserve to be in the union. it's heartbreaking.
3:00 Mary and Eddie Murphy have the same laugh! 😂😂
"Mike is saying Mike things to Mike... now he's a Mike" was worth the price of admission alone. Love Mary.
Coming to America is a great movie with a surprisingly great cameos!
But 'Trading Places' must be watched first or a bit will be wasted. ^_^
@@valashar5313 She has, so thankfully good to go there, lol. Question is, will she catch it?
Chief Inspector Todd in Detroit was in real life the Detroit police department Chief Inspector of homicide. He never acted in anything else but the Beverly Hills Cop movies.
There was also some question as to if Gil Hill was corrupt. But the answer depends on who you ask. He has passed away so I suppose the question no longer matters much.
The Axel character was based on Hill's work as a detective.
@@christophergray7991if you aren't corrupt in Detroit you are an extreme minority and likely about to be dead...
@@dennisswainston411Why would you think that ?
"48 Hours" and "Trading Places" are two of his 3 best...
The actor playing "Serge" is Bronson Pinchot. The first time I saw Bronson act, was in a weekly American TV series named "Perfect Strangers" (1986 - 1993). He played an Eastern Mediterranean farmer (Balki Bartokomous) who came to America to live with his Midwest American cousin, Larry Appleton (Played by Mark Linn-Baker). The accent Bronson used to portray Balki was much the same as the one he uses to portray Serge. One of Balki's famous catch-phrases was "Don't be re-di-koo-lus" (ridiculous).
Your comment makes me happy! Now I do the Dance Of Joy!
13:33 the funny thing about how he laughs at their outfits here is that Eddie Murphy basically wore the same type of outfit for his stand up special entitled 'Delirious'.
Yeah, but I make it look good.
- Eddie Murphy, probably
That's not why he was laughing
@@gamexsimmonds3581 No, that's not what he meant. What is your native language?
@@dannygjk English, it's the only language I speak, what is your native language?...and anyone else who reads this, please post your native language, since this guy wants to know, he's collecting data for a school project or something
Yes, PLEASE watch Coming to America as well! 🙌🏾
Beverly Hills Cop 2 is good also!
Those are great. The Golden Child is pretty fun too
Still one of my all-time favorite movies. "HA! HA! I got the knife! Now turn on the god damn lights"!
I enjoy that film too...but that was the first flop for him fiscally 🎩
Thumbs up, The Golden Child is underrated
+1 for Sardo Numspa!
absolutely watch comming to america
Absolutely over rated movie
I'd suggest Combing to America
But AFTER Trading Places.
@@pistonburner6448And Counting To America! 😄
@@chrissiegle1065 You would know a good movie if it came along and shat in your cornflakes
One of the funniest action comedy movies ever made!
Sylvester Stallone was originally going to play Axel Foley and he wrote the screenplay, which was a lot darker and more violent than the final cut of the movie.
Paramount executives read the script but they turned it down.
Stallone would turn his rejected script into the 1986 action adventure thriller COBRA.
22:55 We've seen Bogomil in Robocop before 😁
That actor was also in Deliverance too, I think
@@LilHoss He was. And Total Recall.
The beginning of this movie was the inspiration for GTA 😂 The actor who plays Billy is *Judge Reinhold* who was in *The Santa Clause* movies, also the cutoms supervisor (23:45) is actor *Rick Overton* who plays the bearded drunk guy who wants flap jacks in *Groundhog Day.*
Coming to America is gem of a movie.
I believe the joke of Serge's accent is that it's what you might call "vaguely European." Or rather, an American viewer would call it that. We don't know how much of his accent is just a nationality we can't identify, and how much is just him being weird.
That's Bronson Pinchot. He made a career out of that accent. Sadly, it was all the talent he really had. Still, he made a fortune on it. It was never meant to be any particular accent, just a vaguely european sounding thing.
Of course. "Don't be stupid." 😄
BTW, he has a moment in the new one coming out this Summer.
He kind of typecast himself because he was in a popular sitcom as Balki who was from Greece(?) and had a funny accent.
He actually had a part in True Romance with Christina Slater.
I did see him on NCIS Hawaii.
The guy with the 'fruit plate' is Damon Wayans. He went on to a big television and movie career himself in the States. That was one of his first roles.
Bronson Pinchot played the art house manager. He went on to star in a successful tv show, Perfect Strangers, where he played an immigrant from Eastern Europe who came to the States. They made his character a more family friendly version of his character in this film.
Paul Reiser is Axle's side kick in the beginning. He was the villain in Aliens and went on to have his own successful tv show in the early 1990's.
Pretty sure Reiser was a stand up comic also.
1. Movie magic: An entire truck loaded with EMPTY cigarette boxes.
2. IMVHO Eddies' best movies are "Trading Places and "Coming to America"
3. Serge/Bronson Pinchot was in a funny series "Perfect Strangers".
4. Jenny/Lisa Eilbacher played Segar in "An Officer and a Gentleman" HINT HINT
5. Maitland/Steven Koff is one of the best bad guys ever! He also played the Soviet Colonel in Rambo II.
6. Billy/Judge Reinhold played Brad Hamilton in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High".
7. Paul Riser (Jeffrey) played Carter Burke in Aliens.
8. Rick Overton (Customs Supervisor ["Can I help you?]) played Ralph ("Who's up for some flapjacks right now?") in Groundhog Day.
Steven Berkoff is a phenomenal actor. His stint as Girolamo Savonarola on The Borgias (2011) (another hint hint!) was amazing.
damon wayans is the fruit guy
I'm so happy that you recognized Jonathan Banks from Breaking Bad. So many reactors miss that 😊
The younger detective (Judge Reinhold) was in "Fast Times at Ridgemount High" with Sean Penn and Nicholas Cage.
the name of the catchy song is "axel f" short for axel foley, and was written for this film. regarding taggart "oh he can give orders now ?ok ". well, sure, he's a sergeant. below captains and lieutenant's, but above the regular officers.
ART GALLERY guy Serge, that's Bronson Pinchot, who is hilarious in this with a fake unknown accent, and the character makes a return in a later film, but after this movie, he blew up on a sitcom called Perfect Strangers, one of my favorites, playing another "foreign" character who comes to live with his cousin in America. That show is how we got Family Matters, as the mom from it was on the Perfect Strangers, working with the main character at the newspaper, aka spin-off.
FYI, the reason the number changed to 112 is so that it's the same everywhere in the EU. So you don't have to memorize the local number when you travel, it's always the same one
but it is 999 in the UK
@@jhilal2385 And that's why I said the EU :)
@@jhilal2385 Rightwingers pushed a very bad idea called "Brexit", they aren't in the EU.
It's also so it's easier to dial since 1 and 2 are closer together than 1 and 0.. To make it easier for example visually disabled people
25:50 Mary, this may be your greatest moment! Pop through the nose! 😁 👍👍
Fun fact, that song they keep playing is actually called "Axel F" after the main character Axel Foley.
Watcg 48 Hours with Eddie and Nick Notle
13:49 This guy was in a long running sitcom, Perfect Strangers, in the late 80 / early 90s. He used the same accent in that show and he was supposed to be from the island of Mypos in the Mediterranean.
Detroit is in the northern United States, amid the Great Lakes. Beverly Hills is part of the Los Angeles metropolitan area in the southwestern part of the country, on the Pacific Coast. The distance between them is about 3700 kilometers, or about 2300 miles.
Axel's boss, that tough Detroit police inspector, was played by a tough Detroit police inspector, Gilbert Hill. He was on Detroit's city council for some years, and tried to become mayor, but he wasn't elected.
That's break dancing, my dear, not "broke" dancing.
Gill Hill ❤❤❤❤
Wasn't Detroit the murder capitol of the US at the time?
The Axel theme song was played on all of the jazz radio stations when this film was released.
It was played on a loop everywhere that summer. Good song but.....
@@abeartheycallFozzy actually much more then that summer that song became a hit that lasted much more... and is still known....
Ronny Cox (Lt. Bogomil) has had a great film and TV career. He is also an accomplished musician, who goes on tour.
His first film appearance was in the classic thriller "Deliverance" (1972) with Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty and Jon Voight. In one scene, he plays the famous instrumental "Dueling Banjos" on his guitar with a banjo-playing mountain boy, played by child actor Billy Redden.
He was the Bad Guy in RoboCop (1987) and Total Recall (1990). He has said that he loves playing villains much more than good guys.
He even played a pain-in-the-butt jerk Starfeet Captain in "Star Trek: The Next Generation". 😄
IIRC, RoboCop was his first villain role. I believe it was also Kurtwood Smith's first movie role as a villain.
Mary-Bowfinger with Eddie Murphy and Steve Martin is really good. A funny movie about filmmaking with Murphy as his own nerdy alter ego.
7:29 Detroit is across a river from Canada (Windsor, Ontario; and in an oddity, Detroit is actually north of Windsor) and Beverly Hills is next to Los Angeles. About 3,000km away.
“Next to” ?
*In
@@tempsitch5632 BH is its own city, but it is inside the COUNTY of L.A. They are not run by the CITY of L.A.'s government.
Serge is played by American actor, Bronson Pinchot, who was famous for playing a similar character in the '80s tv series, Perfect Strangers. His grandparents on his father's side were Russian immigrants who settled in France, and he said Serge's accent was intended to invoke those vaguely Eastern European accents.
Architectural style of Viktor Maitland's mansion is Spanish Mission and is extremely common up and down the California coast, including for the villas of the wealthy of Southern California. Draws a lot of its styling from the missions that were set up here (by missionaries) when this region was under Spanish/Mexican control and they were attempting to convert the indigenous tribes. But it also suits the Mediterranean climate zones here, especially in SoCal.
😎👍 Another really fun Eddie Murphy movie that is also set in Beverly Hills is "Bowfinger" (1999).
Much underrated,bit of a comeback almost...and it has Steve Martin👍🎩
The bad guys in this movie definitely have stormtrooper aim.
The role of Serge is played by Bronson Pinchot who also played the part of Balki Bartokomous in the TV series Perfect Strangers. he has this very bizarre accent that he uses for foreign characters he plays.
Nutty Professor! The outtakes alone are so funny I cry every time. Eddie is one of the funniest people to ever live.
Eddie Murphy's Movies have always been a big part of My Life, especially since My Childhood: 80's & 90's!😂I'd Highly Recommend Both "Beverly Hills Cop II" and "Coming to America"👈the latter has a Clever Callback to "Trading Places!"👌
7:55 And thusly did Mary invent "pool sharking".
The actor playing Axl’s boss was a sitting city council member in Detroit for decades.
Just so you have a better idea, that $235 hotel room in 1984 would cost over $710 today. Off topic, but have you ever reacted to "Euro Trip"? I think a European perspective would be interesting (it's a comedy). "Coming to America" is funny and an Eddie Murphy must see. The sequel to this is pretty good also "48 Hours" is Eddie's first movie; it's a buddy cop movie.
Looking it up, their current cheapest rate is $851. per night.
"ok, guess the dinner is off" left me in stitches :D
great reaction !
3:58 - Mary there, laughing 100% in tune with The Pointer Sisters in the background.
Fun fact: the hotel worker at the end of the film that Axel asks about the price of the robes is actually the director of the film, Martin Brest.
The start was filmed and took place in the city of Detroit. The "police Chief" was played by controversial retired Detroit police chief Gilbert Hill (amazing). Axel Foley was a hero to many youths of the period especially locally.
YES!!!! Coming to America is a mush watch!
The actor you should recognize in this film is a younger Jonathan Banks (bad guy Zack), today famous for playing the legendary Mike Ehrmantraut in BREAKING BAD and BETTER CALL SAUL.
She did!😀
The buffet attendant who gave Axel the bananas is comedic actor Damon Wayans, older brother of Marlon, Shawn, and Keenen Wayans, who you saw in "Scary Movie"
Hello from Los Angeles! (A few blocks away from Beverly Hills, lol).
The guy who plays Ltn. Bogomil was also in Robocop, the guy who plays Victor Maitland was also the bad guy in Rambo 2. The guy who gives the bananas is one of the Wayans brothers from "In Living color" TV sketch show. Those are the "familiar faces" I can think of. Axel's partner in Detroit was in some sitcom with Helen Hunt (?), but I don't remember the name.One of Victor's goons was also a goon in Scarface - the guy who Tony Montana asks "do you want a job", right after Tony had killed his former boss.
Yes! Definitely see "Coming to America," too!!
Great response. I’m glad you liked the movie. Coming to America is a must. Also The Golden Child and Mr. Church.
6:19 This is the theme song, Axel F. When I was a kid some guys came to my school to demonstrate electronic instruments and one guy played this whole song.
I like surprises... from people who know what I like.
One of the reasons they changed emergency numbers to be irregular in many countries (e.g. 112 or 911) is to prevent toddlers or little kids from accidently dialing them if they get hold of the house phone.
Paul Reiser, who plays Axel's colleague Jeffrey at the start of the movie, was in Stranger Things, The Boys and also playing the company guy that screws up in Aliens.
And you should definitely watch Coming to America, and Beverly Hills Cop 2... the 3rd movie is not as good as the first two, so watch it for the completion value. :)
Mary! Bronson (Serge) PInchot's thing was talking in weird accents. You can also bet his initial interaction at the gallery with Eddie Murphy was improvised. His hilarious accents won him a role as wide-eyed innocent immigrant Balki Bartokomous on a sitcom TV series (Perfect Strangers).
38:32 - Mary, as Americans living in Los Angeles, we all have big homes with swimming pools. To get around the issue of walking long distances between rooms to find people when we want to talk with them, we use to have two-way intercoms in every room. Thankfully now we just text each other so we don’t have to walk over to the intercom. My wife and I haven’t spoken to each other since 2002. Even laying one meter from each other in our California King bed, we text each other. And now that Apple makes iDog collars, we simply text with our dogs too! (We would with our cat too, but she has an attitude and sometimes won’t reply to our texts for 2-3 days. Cats!) ❤
And Serge’s accent is because he is Flemish. His mother was a Citroen mechanic from Brussels and his father was a French speaking lace maker from Ghent. He went to college in Los Angeles on a competitive cow milking team scholarship to study late 20th Century Dutch literature and worked for Victor to pick up extra spending money. Just after this movie came out he got his immigration card, moved to Seattle, and co-founded Starbucks. (In case you were interested.)
There's a cameo of two characters from Trading Places in Coming to America. Great movies, both of them.
At 27:40 John Ashton is rubbing his face, trying not to laugh. LOL
Bronson Pinchot/Serge, made up the accent on his own… the guy who gave Axel the bananas is Damon Wayans
Achmed...Achwell....
AHHHHH YES, SUPER COOL MARY!!! 💯😊AND YOU DEFINITELYYY SHOULD DO 2 ALSO AT LEAST 👍ENJOYYYYY THIS ( 40 ) YEARS AGO NOW CLASSIC!
I have a ball watching your reactions as well as hearing some of the stories that you share. I really enjoy your sense of humor!!❤😊
That's the Harold Lloyd estate in Beverly Hills, belonged to the famous silent comedian, you can see it in lots of movies.
The Bronson Pinchot (Serge from the gallery) meeting Achmed errr, I mean Axel is honestly my favorite scene in this movie.
Bail (aka a bond) doesn’t make the charges go away, it’s simply a surety that the person will return to court to face the charges without having to remain in jail awaiting the court date. Minor charges get a small bail amount or even just a promise to reappear (own recognizance bond) while major crimes can go up into the millions or “no bail granted” on crimes such as murder. If the person fails to show up at the court date, the money is forfeited and the person will have a warrant issued for their arrest.
Mary! You and Axel have similar laughs! I'm so happy you did this reaction; this is one of my favourites 😊
Yup! Jonathan Banks had a couple of hit movie roles this year. First Gremlins and then this one. He mostly did TV back then.
48hrs and the 2nd instalment of Beverly Hills cop are amazing too. Cheers!
The tune AxelF was covered for Crazy Frog ringtones years later, when people would buy ringtones for their phones. Became a racing game as well.
You missed Axel's cop friend in Detroit who was the sleazy exec in Aliens, and the Beverly Hills Lieutenant was the bad guy in Robocop and Total Recall.
I'm pretty sure at the time Detroit was the murder capitol of the US.
27:42: The actor playing Taggart was actually laughing in the “supercop” scene.
Love your reaction videos! And I never choose the "skip" option during the commercials in order to ensure that you get paid for your work. Trading Places is one of Eddie's funniest movies IMO.
@37:06 and 39:20 Billy Badass! He timed it right and went in after Maitland and his crew left. If he went in too early, he would have been horribly outnumbered, and if he waited too long, Axel would have possibly been dead. Then, he takes down a bad guy with one shot while standing in the line of fire. Billy’s the unsung hero of this movie.
Yes! Dives on the play button.
Loved your reaction, Mary. Clearly you had so much fun... 💝
Yes, that's Mike Ehrmantraut.
If you like the music in the strip club, it's a lady band called Vanity 6.
'Now he can give orders?' Taggert is a Detective Sargent (it is mentioned in one of the early interactions with Foley in the Police Headquarters) IIRC the rest of the squad are just Detectives. So if there is not a Detective Lieutenant or the Captain present, yes he is in charge. If you found the character Billy interesting, you should definitely watch Beverly Hills Cop 2. He has a bit of character 'development'.
ICYMI Crazy Frog covered Axel F in 2005 and it seems this generation is quite familiar with the cover version and animated character without knowing it originated here.
23:58 - "By the way, let me know if I've seen these actors in other stuff..." - His friend at the police station at the start was Paul Reiser, who played Carter Burke in Aliens. "I work for the company, but don't let that fool you, I'm really an OK guy." The Beverly Hills police chief is played by Ronny Cox, who played Dick Jones in Robocop. "I had to kill Bob Morton because he made a mistake. Now it's time to erase that mistake."
In 1986 (I was 11) & in band we played this soundtrack - the movie was huge. Back then most (American anyway) parents didn’t care if we watched R rated movies. At all. “Axel F”, Foley’s theme, felt so cool at the time😃
Judge Reinhold (Billy Rosewood) was Brad in "Fast Times At Ridgemont High," Ronny Cox (Lt. Bogomil) was in "Deliverance" and "RoboCop," John Ashton (Taggart) was in "Midnight Run," and Bronson Pinchot (Serge) was Balki on the TV show "Perfect Strangers." You spotted Jonathan Banks already.
Tangent, he was not named "Judge" by his parents, it is a nickname he decided to use for his acting career.
I was SO looking forward to Mary reacting to Serge... the accent was funny and I wanted to see a European call it out. 😂
7:45 Detroit MI is roughly 2000 miles from Beverly Hills CA by plane, driving it's closer to 2300 miles (like 35 hours by car).
Bronson Pinchot made up the fictional accent for this movie. He was later cast in a TV show called "Perfect Strangers" where he used the same accent.
You may have seen Billy in Gremlins or Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
Beverly Hills Cop 4 comes out in July. An Eddie Murphy film I like is Bowfinger.
I'm from Detroit in the era this movie was made. We're known for being a very crime riddled area in all of America, even today. Beverly Hills, California is known to be one of the richest places in America (Beverly Hills, Michigan is also very rich), so a young cop from Detroit in Beverly Hills was an amusing contradiction/irony when the film was made.
This movie definitely has one of the most Memorable tunes . It will get stuck in your head forever
"Captain Ron" is another great easy watching movie with Kurt Russel.
"Stay on the path. There's guerillas in the woods!" 😂
Coming to America and Harlem Nights is a classic!
Chief Hubbard wasn't pissed; look at the small smile on his face. He knew they were bullshitting him.
Oh, and banana boy? A very young Damon Wayans.
Hi Mary !
Great reaction
You have already seen the actor playing Billy here in Gremlins, where he played Gerald, Billy and Kate's superior at the bank. And the one who plays Axel's annoying colleague in detroit also played in Aliens, the role Burke (the bad guy from the Weyland company)
6:16 Glad to see you grooving to that song "Axel F" because they play it through the whole movie.
His friend (Mikey) was probably using the fridge to cool off. That is why he left the door open. Axel probably doesn't have an AC in his apartment.
I've seen an argument online that with the pool shoot early on that Mikey actually won the bet as the 8-Ball bounced off three cushions and not two. Either it's a blooper that got past the editors, or they left it in to perhaps suggest that Mikey was too drunk to notice the third cushion bounce.
You'll enjoy "Coming to America, " probably more than "Beverly Hills Cop." "Trading Places" is a classic.
Aside from those three ... well, Eddie Murphy has been in a lot of bad movies for someone as charismatic as he is.
Beverly Hills is in Los Angeles. Multi-millionaires, movie stars, etc live there. Very nice place.
For the record, Detroit is 2295 mi (3693.444 km) from Beverly Hills. According to Google maps, going the most direct route nonstop will take about 34 hrs.
Yes.... 2 and 3 have the same core group of actors and are well worth a look 🙂👍
There are a lot of great Eddie Murphy movies I could just list off that you'd want to see, but one of my recent favorites is Dolemite Is My Name and I love his care in giving a person whowas essentially a lesser star than himself a huge spotlight and care of the guy. Eddie Murphy as great as he is gets better with time.
Beverly Hills is in California. It is about 2,300 miles (~3,700 km) west and south of Detroit, Michigan. Michigan borders Canada while Beverly Hills is reasonably close to Mexico. It's quite a distance.
Detroit is in Michigan and Hollywood is in California. If that helps. Detroit, Michigan is 2044 miles (3289.499 km) East of Hollywood, California
