Ridley Scott forever left his mark on Hollywood when he directed 1979’s Alien. 45 years after its release, the sci-fi/horror film remains a seminal classic in its own right, but it also launched a successful franchise that is still going strong to this day. Scott eventually directed two prequels in the form of 2012’s Prometheus and 2017’s Alien: Covenant, though he didn’t direct any of the sequels. That appears to be something the filmmaker regrets all these years later.

There’s an art to crafting modern sequels to movies that otherwise put a full stop on their stories way back in the ’80s or ’90s. Some nail it; many don’t. Fortunately, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F is one of the former. Smartly assembled to feel like an authentic continuation of the original trilogy rather than an arbitrary reinvention of it (or worse, a toned-down, PG facsimile), Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F is vintage Eddie Murphy set to a vintage soundtrack.
