Character mistake: When Axel is being arrested by the female officers, he says he's been a cop for "thirty years, and black for longer than that." Axel has been a cop for at least 40 years; the first film took place in 1984.
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024)
Directed by: Mark Molloy
Starring: Eddie Murphy, Kevin Bacon, Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Continuity mistake: When Axel introduces Serge, he places his hand next to his ear as if he were hard of hearing. From the opposite angle, his hand is lowered. As of then, the position of his hands is not continuous between shots.
Factual error: When Axel first drives from the airport (while on the phone) towards Beverly Hills, he is coming from the wrong direction. He is shown on the interchange from the 105 Freeway westbound to the northbound 110 Freeway heading towards Downtown LA. If coming from the airport to that same intersection, he would be on the 105 eastbound into the 110 - not westbound.
Trivia: When Axel first arrives in Beverly Hills, he gets arrested by two female officers, driving the very small police car. One of the officers is Eddie Murphy's real-life daughter.
