People revisit Beverly Hills Cop II for the same reason it broke through in 1987: clear stakes, memorable faces, and a comedy rhythm that doesn't stall in the middle. Tony Scott keeps the ensemble pointed in one direction. The action and comedy blend is the engine: it lets the film shift registers without feeling like two different movies stitched together.
