Our take
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F is the old Foley chaos again: guns in faces, a dead body, cocaine, and constant f-word language. Expect a sex-at-parties line. Older teens and adults
Story (may spoil tone)

Talk after watching
- The jokes sit on guns. Did that feel like the old films or harder?
- Cocaine sits in the case. What does the film think that does to the people around it?
