...contributing to America's fascination for O.J. Simpson. I am not his illegitimate son. I'm not a "close friend" of Nicole's, either. I didn't drive past him on the highway that fateful day, I didn't notice the way he shoved Nicole out of that Rodeo Drive boutique, and I didn't hear him sing "Memory" in the courtroom. I am just an ordinary citizen who should mind his own business...
...friends: that bandits are decent, doomed boys; that bullets don't really hurt; and, of course, that whores have hearts of gold. Charley Floyd has served four years in the Jefferson City, Missouri, lockup for robbing an armored car, but his career really gets going when he and a rodeo cowboy named George Birdwell both try, by storyteller's coincidence, to rob the Earlsboro, Oklahoma, bank at the same time.

The stars seem to be improvising much of the time and winking to the audience, "Hey, folks, we're having a lot of fun!" Hey, guys...
...cheekiness and car chases. As it happened, that was Beverly Hills Cop. Ever since, the comedian has been a loose cannon, rolling aimlessly around on ships variously listing and listless. Beverly Hills Cop II, Murphy's first reprise of Axel Foley, the street-smart Detroit plainclothesman set down in Rodeo Drive and environs, was frantic and noisy. Beverly Hills Cop III is possibly a little less frazzling, but it's also a movie that's just going through the motions, without comic conviction, surprises or suspense. Hey, it's Eddie in his best part, the studio must have been thinking...
