Because, Eddie Murphy is funny.
As formulaic action flicks go, this is worth it.

They also worked, because we got to see the conflict between a smart-aleck street-wise cop, and sophisticated low-witted Beverly Hills snobs.
This film simply lost the flavor of its predecessors.

There, he's confronted with dangerous people, dangerous situations, and the dangerously pretentious Beverly Hills lifestyle.
Well, as it turns out, Beverly Hills Cop was one of those little happy accidents stretched out over 105 minutes.

Qwipster's Movie Reviews
One of the most purely-entertaining action-comedies of its era, Beverly Hills Cop featured a dead-perfect mix of action and comedy, delivering a maximum amount of laughs and thrills in equal measure.
Bolstered by a killer soundtrack ("The Heat is On", "Neutron Dance", and "New Attitude' proved to be huge hits) and one of the best of the synthy 1980s scores by Harold Faltermeyer (many mainstream 80s scores are hard on the ears today, but not this one), Beverly Hills Cop gives you everything you could want i ...

The film lacked any large defects like scratches, blotches or tears
Probably best of the bunch, however, are Reinhold and Ashton.
