Beverly Hills Cop II

Axel Foley, played by Eddie Murphy, successfully infiltrates a chop shop operation run by gangster Maxwell Dent. However, Foley's reckless behavior leads to the deaths of two fellow officers. Blaming himself for their tragic demise, Foley decides to take a vacation and heads to Beverly Hills to visit his friend Billy Rosewood, who is now a detective in the Beverly Hills Police Department.

Meanwhile, in Beverly Hills, there is a series of armed robberies targeting high-end jewelry stores. Investigating the case, Billy and his partner, Sergeant John Taggart, discover that the same gang committed all the robberies. They inform the newly promoted Police Lieutenant Andrew Bogomil, who is in charge of the case.

As Foley arrives in Beverly Hills, he stumbles upon an altercation between two men in a strip club. One of the men is Dent's henchman, Karla Fry, while the other is an art dealer named Arthur Dent, Maxwell's brother. Foley realises that Dent has evolved from a simple chop shop operator to a white-collar criminal hiding behind his legitimate business. Determined to bring Dent to justice and avenge his fallen colleagues, Foley convinces Billy and Taggart to let him help with the investigation.

Bogomil reluctantly agrees to Foley's involvement, and the trio starts an undercover operation at the Wonderworld amusement park, which Dent owns. Foley gets a job as a park security guard, while Billy poses as a park supervisor and Taggart works undercover as a construction worker. They suspect that Wonderworld is a front for Dent's criminal activities.

During their investigation, Foley and Billy discover that Dent is using the park's rides to smuggle counterfeit US currency. They also learn that Dent is responsible for the murder of a British investigative reporter who was close to exposing his crimes. As they dig deeper, the gang becomes aware of their presence and starts targeting Foley and his team.

In a thrilling chase, Foley and the gang members engage in a shootout throughout the amusement park. Foley manages to capture Karla Fry but is double-crossed by Dent, who kidnaps Billy. Foley pursues Dent, leading to a final confrontation on the park's Ferris wheel. After a tense standoff, Foley outwits Dent and rescues Billy.

With the evidence against Dent in hand, Foley, Billy, and Taggart confront him, leading to Dent's arrest. Bogomil personally thanks Foley for his assistance in solving the case and restoring his faith in the police force. Foley then decides to return to Detroit but not without an emotional farewell to his friends.
