In California, Axel enlists the help of two circumspect police officers from the Beverly Hills Police Department named Billy Rosewood and John Taggart and must try and work around the restrictions put in place by the chief of police, who is not the biggest fan of Axel’s manner of working. However, when Axel’s childhood friend Mikey Tandino gets murdered by some thugs who break into his apartment, Axel goes to California in order to track down the killers and bring them to justice. Axel doesn’t get along very well with his superiors in the police department, who all consider him to be a bit of a loose cannon. The first movie in the trilogy titled ‘Beverly Hills Cop’ debuted in 1984 and starred a fresh face Eddie Murphy as Detective Axel Foley, a police officer with an unorthodox approach to the job hailing from the streets of Detroit.
