Beverly Hills Cop III mistake picture

Revealing mistake: In the big wheel, the boy falls out and grabs Axel's leg. When it zooms out, it is a man climbing his leg.

Revealing mistake: When Axel shoots the guy on the tracks of the subway ride, you can see a little wire flip up from his leg when he falls. This is the wire that goes to the squib in the guy's shirt.

Revealing mistake: During the rescue on the big wheel, the people in the gondola behind Axel are obvious dummies, not only are they not moving in any shot but the man keeps his arm in the air pointing the wrong way the whole time.

Suggested correction: The actor does move his arm at the end when he is seen for the last time. They are real people.

Revealing mistake: When Axel is jumping from car to car on the spider ride, he just about falls. There is a shot looking down as some people try to help him. It's painfully obvious that it's a stunt man. He looks a lot different from Eddie Murphy.

Deliberate mistake: Twice in this film Axel is shot at by multiple gunmen using automatic weapons at close range - and they all miss. In the Earthquake theme ride the bullets ricochet of the rails at Axel's feet. Why are they all aiming low? Why don't they raise their aim? In the park outside he hides behind a perfectly ordinary park bench and the bullets hit the wooden slats. Not one goes through the open spaces between them? I know bad guys can't shoot straight in the movies, but this is ridiculous ...

Serge: Now, one thing's very important. At the survival boutiqua, I feel that it's my personality, that's it's my philosophy that everything must conform to the three P's, OK? Which is, protection. Prestige. And pretty. I mean, why should you look ugly if you're just trying to survive?

Trivia: The film was originally meant to take place in England, with several co-stars such as Sean Connery or John Cleese being suggested for Axel's new partner. However, this idea was dropped since it was deemed too similar to the movie "Black Rain," about an American cop who goes to Japan. "Die Hard" writer Steven E. De Souza was then hired, based on an idea he had that was pitched as "'Die Hard' in an amusement park." This became the basis for the script.
