Named one of Empire magazine’s 100 Greatest Movie Characters of All Time, Eddie Murphy stars as Axel Foley, a street-smart Detroit cop who travels to Beverly Hills, California to investigate a crime, even though it is out of his jurisdiction.
A Detroit cop that likes to bend the rules winds up investigating his friend's murder in the affluent neighborhood of Beverly Hills, California. Immediately clashing with the posh residents of the wealthy town and hitting barriers within the Beverly Hills police department, Axel Foley must find a way to stay true to himself, while catching a killer.
Axel Foley returns to Beverly Hills to help Taggart and Rosewood investigate Chief Bogomil's near-fatal shooting and the series of "alphabet crimes" associated with it.
Axel Foley, while investigating a car theft ring, comes across something much bigger than that: the same men who killed his boss are running a counterfeit money ring out of a theme park in Los Angeles.
Forty years after his unforgettable first case in Beverly Hills, Detroit cop Axel Foley returns to do what he does best: solve crimes and cause chaos.
