- Allen Almachar @ The MacGuffin
- Excerpt: I’ve always been wary of “Legacy Sequels” as the worst of them rely too heavily on nostalgia as opposed to telling a good story. Fortunately for us, this does a better job balancing the two sides.
- [New] | David “DC” Bolling @ DC’s Take
- Excerpt: Even when it doesn’t always live up to what fans loved about the first, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F makes for a mildly enjoyable sequel coasting on Eddie Murphy’s commitment with his return as the titular character.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: The corruption plot is just the underpinning for this group of actors …to get back together and they’re all clearly relishing the reunion. Murphy may have mellowed a bit, but he slips right back into Foley’s skin
- Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: This sequel isn’t a banana in your tailpipe, it’s the real deal.
- Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: They brought the character into the 2020s, supplied him a worthy verbal combatant in Paige’s scene-stealing Jane, and crafted a sufficiently tense crime to foil. That’s honestly all we needed.
- Eddie Pasa @ DC Filmdom
- Excerpt: Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F comes up as the best of the sequels and gives the original a run for its money as best of the franchise.
- Christopher Reed @ Film Festival Today
- Excerpt: Contrary to what Frey sings, there isn’t much heat. Still, it’s a relaxing-enough time.
- Sebastian Zavala @ Cinencuentro.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Axel F is a much better conclusion to the saga than the infamous third part, which in itself justifies the existence of a new installment. If you remember Axel Foley fondly, you will have a good time with this movie.
