Eddie Murphy's Axel Foley is the kind of street cop who can talk his way out of anything and charm his way into places he definitely shouldn't be. When he leaves Detroit for Beverly Hills in 1984's "Beverly Hills Cop" to investigate his friend's murder, the buttoned-up local police assign two detectives to babysit him and keep him out of trouble. What does Axel stuff into the police car's tailpipe so that he can actually go do some investigating?
