I enjoyed all three films and this one should also be rated R. Eddie can be a family man in real life. This is only a movie.

We want the Eddie Murphy from "Delirious", not the Eddie Murphy from "Daddy Day Care".

[b]The trilogy is lost.[/b]
Three was so horrendously bad that there's no way they can save face. Let Murphy rot, he's made his bed. This guy has all the ability to pick proper films like O.J. has to be a divorce mediator.

i just love it when actors who pick up transvestite prostitutes are considered "family comedians" in hollywood.

this is a terrible idea.

You say transvestite prostitute like it's a bad thing. :)

You're right though. Terrible idea.

Beverly Hills Cop 4 would have to be Axl Foley on stage with a gun telling a 90-minute version of "the Aristocrats" in order to redeem Murphy as a comedic actor.

Martin Lawrence has already signed on to that idea. It's a role he was born to play.

[b]The rating of Beverly Hills Cop 4[/b]
I think it should be R because how can you bring back the franchise for one last run on a campy PG rating its not only wrong its sacrilige

Making it PG is the worst idea. Making Live Free or Die Hard PG-13 almost killed it, but they were lucky. Axl Foley is NOT a PG kinda guy, so don't turn him into one because it WON'T work.

Studios don't care about substance. Just money. It sucks. We need them booted and bring back to good days when filmmakers ran the studios. Not morons who only look at the accounting. Jesus, it doesn't take much money to make a movie like this, it wouldn't need the PG-13 audience. Plus, whatever happened to getting your older sibling or friends to buy your ticket and sneaking in. I used to do that all the time and when I got older, I bought my younger friends tickets.
