Roger Ebert on Beverly Hills Cop (1984): “What’s this movie about, anyway? Is it a comedy or an action picture? Audiences may expect a comedy, but the closing shoot-out seems inspired by the machine gun massacre at the end of Brian De Palma’s ‘Scarface,’ and the whole business with the cocaine is so very, very tired that when we see the boss and his henchmen in the warehouse, we feel like we’ve switched to another movie — maybe a dozen other movies.” [Chicago Sun-Times]
