@@RhetoricalThrill "you play with your food you get indigestion." that's actually very 80's of you, do you mind if I remember it or steal it altogether?
The most memorable part of the film is the soundtrack for me. Axel F the synthesizer track played throughout is timeless. Whenever it was on the radio in the early 90s I would love it as a kid.
Man, I would give anything to be able to watch this film for the first time again. I saw it in Dec 1984 in the theater and it remains one of the best times I ever had at the movies! Twenty - thirty viewings later and I am still entertained by it!
Eddie was was only 22 when he filmed this movie, and hed already had 2 previous hit movies, 48Hrs and Trading Places... had a smash hit comedy record, and single handedly saved Saturday Night Live from cancellation. (he joined the cast at 19). In the early 80s Eddie was a comedy God.
And give it up for a young(ger) Jonathan Banks (Mike fron Breaking Bad) as the lead henchman. Always played a great heavy. This same year he also had a small part as the deputy in Gremlins.
Great commentary! And same! I didn't know the movies until this year and i never would have watched them if it wasn't for my boyfriend. He said that it is mandatory to know them. I was not disappointed 😆
I'm glad you had watched this one. One of my personal favorites. Classic 80s Eddie Murphy humor is some of the best, a lot of quotable moments that you just can't get away with today. Happy to see you enjoyed it.
You really liked when Axel morphed into Ramone! By the way, wasn't Bronson Pinchot funny? He was Serge, at the gallery. His bit is talking in accents, and you can bet most of his interaction with Murphy in the gallery was ad libbed.
10:10 Eddie Murphy improvised the whole “supercop” routine. It was a long day and Murphy didn’t do any drugs or drink caffeine. He gave in cause of the long day and had a little coffee which gave us the supercop scene. You’ll notice Taggart (John Ashton) holding his head. He’s actually trying not to laugh and ruin the scene. Then Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) was grabbing his thigh pinching it trying not to laugh. 13:22 the paper in his hands is the movie script. He read his lines before coming in the camera. Billy is my favorite character in this series. I love how they did more with him in each movie. A lot of people don’t like the third one but I love Billy in the third one. Waiting to see what they do with him in the new one.
Billy is such a great character! His progression is what I love. Axel is great but he’s kind of perfect already, for what he is. There’s not much room for him to grow. If Billy isn’t done dirty in 3, I’ll probably watch it on my own because I do love him that much 😊
I think I will do the next one, but it might be awhile. I’m planning to move into some spooky month stuff but maybe before Christmas. Thanks for being here!
I remember this movie was on cable CONSTANTLY in the early to mid 90's....how you've never seen it, I don't know, but I'm glad you've seen this classic now lol
@@RhetoricalThrill Haha. It’s got it’s charm I meant to say. Apparently I hit send before adding that word in there. But yeah, the second one is my favorite for sure:)
That tough Detroit police inspector really was a tough Detroit police inspector, Gilbert R. Hill. In real life, he was on city council and ran (unsuccessfully) for mayor. When scouting for locations, someone saw him and listened to him, then recommended they cast him.
This was the first reaction video of yours that I've seen. I had such a blast watching it along with you. Glad you enjoyed the film. I've never seen the third one because honestly the trailers looked terrible. But if your husband says it's the best of the three, maybe I should give it a look.
I’m glad you liked it! This is still one of my favorites. And I wouldn’t listen to him, he also said the third TMNT movie was good and I highly disagreed 😆
@@RhetoricalThrill well you know him better than me, so if you say don't listen to him, then that's that. Just watched your Old School reaction. Love that one too. Loved the Labyrinth t shirt you had on. Can't tell which had a better line. The line about Rosewood being harder than he was in the strip club, or the one about the Welcome Back Kotter looking guy at the start of Old School. Either way, I'm definitely subscribing for more content.
I had the hardest time not laughing when I watched Breaking Bad and the Mike Ehrmantraut character was introduced. All I could see was him being thrown across the buffet table!
The Eddie Murphy buddy cop m9vie you sh9udl see is the one he did before Beverly Hills Cop, it was called "48 Hours", with Nick Nolte, and then they did a sequel called "Another 48 hours"
You mentioned Grand Rapids. Is that Grand Rapids, Michigan? You might be a local to me which is cool Want a great buddy cop comedy? Try "Running Scared" the 1980s version. How about a Johnny Depp horror/detective movie? Try "The Ninth Gate"
Little trivia Sylvester stallone was offered the lead but turned down due to comedy he wanted Beverly hills cop pure action but luckily they chose wise and it is a classic
Some of the ideas that Sylvester Stallone had planned for _Beverly Hills Cop_ ended up in _Cobra_ (1986). Another reason that Stallone left the project is that Paramount Pictures deemed at least some of what he had planned to be too expensive.
And I was an art major for a while, and I changed majors because I couldn't stomach how pretentious the "scene" was. And if you can't tell if something is made to be art or to poke fun at art, then it's not good art...it's just ego. I once read an article about someone setting down a pair of glasses in an art gallery, forgetting about them, and walking off. Then people started gathering around them and discussing what they thought the glasses represented. And yes, a lot of high end art is used for money laundering.
@@wfly81 - Recently heard about an "art" exhibit of a banana duct taped to a wall that someone ate. I don't get "art", although one of my favorite classes in college was an Art History course.
Hmmm.... Mid-West, Wisconsin, Dakota'ish? I've been on the east cost so long, i'm trying to place accents west of me, since I finally ventured out that way a couple of years ago. SUBBED. Look forward to more awesome reactions. I'll throw you a suggest after I check out what you have seen
I was referring to all the paperwork and hassle that’s going to come from the incident, because of him doing an undercover job without permission or even informing anyone.
Sorry but the 80's absolutely does not look like the 70's at all... I lived the 80's everything was COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from the 70's (design, colours, state of mind, fashions,musics, colours, hairstyles, makeups, not the least ressemblance with the 70's, I mean nothing at all !!! I don't know on which basis you can say "most of the 80's are like the 70's, that's empirically wrong... Sorry, I had to tell it Edit : oh, what you said just after is completely different and that is true ! The very start of the 80's was much like the 70's, but the years after since 1984, and even maybe 1983, everything was completely different from the 70's... So that's not "most of the 80's" as you said just before... On the 80's decade, 4 years were more like 70's (kind of) and 6 years were like the 80's, so most of the 80's are like the 80's 😉
I said the EARLY 80s looks like the late 70s as far as fashion and design goes. The clock doesn’t tick over from 1979 to 1980 and suddenly BAM everything is suddenly different. Jesus, what a stupid thing to get hung up on.
Thank you so much for reacting to my movie suggestion.🙏 Enjoyed every second of it. Keep up the great work 👍
Oh, thank you! I couldn’t remember who had suggested it and I felt awful!

Part 2 is great, 3 not so much, but they are filming 4 now!
3 does not exist. Proceed to part 4 with the rest of us. 😂
This is the reason Eddie is/was a star back then!
The most memorable part of the film is the soundtrack for me. Axel F the synthesizer track played throughout is timeless. Whenever it was on the radio in the early 90s I would love it as a kid.
It’s trapped in my heeeeeeeaaaad
This soundtrack is in my top ten of all time.

That’s why I love what I do!
That’s crazy how young Damon Wayons was in this.
Right?
Eddie was was only 22 when he filmed this movie, and hed already had 2 previous hit movies, 48Hrs and Trading Places... had a smash hit comedy record, and single handedly saved Saturday Night Live from cancellation.
(he joined the cast at 19). In the early 80s Eddie was a comedy God.
And give it up for a young(ger) Jonathan Banks (Mike fron Breaking Bad) as the lead henchman. Always played a great heavy. This same year he also had a small part as the deputy in Gremlins.
Damn, that’s amazing. He really was the best, I’d love to see him make a comeback some day when we’re allowed to have real comedy again.
Jonathan Banks is on Wiseguy which is great 80's tv.
Happy 40th Anniversary To This Great Classic Movie, Great Reaction Sweetheart ❤
Murphy's boss was a real cop
Great commentary!
And same! I didn't know the movies until this year and i never would have watched them if it wasn't for my boyfriend. He said that it is mandatory to know them. I was not disappointed 😆

It was so much fun! I hope we get to have good comedy again soon.
@@RhetoricalThrill as do I. So very few and far between these days.
Another " Beverly Hills Cop " in production with orig cast .

Nice job. Glad I came across your new channel. THanks and best of luck to you.
Eddie Murphy is BACK! Axel Foley hasn't lost his charm, and the action feels like a fun throwback.
Omg this reaction was 10/10 XD i love all the beverly hills cops movies they are perfect in every way :D
Hey thanks! Hopefully 2 will be coming soon 😊
#2 is GREAT!! Please react to it!! I'm in the Free State of Florida but was born @ St. Mary's!
I think I will do the next one, but it might be awhile. I’m planning to move into some spooky month stuff but maybe before Christmas. Thanks for being here!
Your husband is totally pranking you by telling you part 3 is the best. ;)
Could honestly be true. It’s very normal for me to have no idea when he’s serious about something 😂
@@RhetoricalThrill BHC was excellent, BHC 2 was good, BHC 3 was adequate.
Billy's gun is pretty sick. You could probably fit like... 8 of em in a standard pair of cargo shorts.
It did the job anyway!
just wait until you see what he uses in the next one...
I remember this movie was on cable CONSTANTLY in the early to mid 90's....how you've never seen it, I don't know, but I'm glad you've seen this classic now lol
Me tooooo!
Excellent pick. This is one of those rare cases where the 2nd is just as good if not better than the original:) The 3rd one is okay:)
I think the 2nd one will happen for sure, just a matter of time.
@@RhetoricalThrill Awesome. I’m sure you’ll enjoy that one. The third one has it’s, but even Eddie Murphy didn’t think it was on par with the others:)

For the reference 3 is the WORST by a VERY large margin. It's honestly skipable. Even Eddie Murphy hated it.

How did you never watch this??? Dad watched it all the time! Love this movie 😆

I’m definitely going to try them all!
16:45 I am confused. Are you saying that you are 53 years old? You look a lot younger.
No, Butch Cassidy was made in 1969 so the spoiler is for a 53 year old movie. I’m not nearly that old yet. 😊

Try "The Ninth Gate"

Jonathan Banks. He also appeared in _48 Hrs_ (1982), also featuring Eddie Murphy within its cast.

I haven’t seen that in forever, I hardly remember it 😅 Thank you for subbing, it is greatly appreciated!
Harold J. Faltermeyer was a synth music god tier man in the 80s.. Beverly Hills Cop, Top Gun, Fletch, Kuffs..
I feel like synth is due for a comeback
Harold Faltermeyer also helped write the Glenn Frey-sung song _The Heat Is On,_ which plays during the opening credits of _Beverly Hills Cop._

This is one of my favorite 80s flicks 3 is ok but I think it’s the weakest of the trilogy.
