I say this as a fan of Eddie Murphy.

Kevin Bacon's latest villain roles in MaXXXine and Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F should be the beginning of a villain streak for the ages.

If we're going to get more sequels decades after the original, make them more like Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F.

It executes a number of funny bits (including a couple of excellent cameos), develops exciting action within thrilling set pieces, and it has a proper light touch when it comes to franchise callbacks

Eddie Murphy is back as Axel Foley for a fourth Beverly Hills Cop movie, and the trailer is giving me hope.
