In Memoriam: 5 Essential Tony Scott Movies
Paramount
Beverly Hills Cop II
Eddie Murphy mined box-office gold cracking wise as Axel Foley in the first Beverly Hills Cop movie, and the 1987 sequel upped the action-and-laughs ante with Scott at the helm. Arguably a strange follow-up to Top Gun career-wise, Scott was riding high with Paramount on the box office strength of the Tom Cruise hit and displayed a confident dexterity mixing Murphy's chemistry with his co-stars amid the white-knuckle action and suspense, with Bridgette Nielsen and Jurgen Prochnow as the new villains.
