Detroit cop Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) has seemingly smoothed out his differences with his Beverly Hills superior Bogomil (Ronny Cox), but there's trouble ahead for both men, not to mention two other holdovers from the first Cop film, officers Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and Taggart (John Ashton).… More Detroit cop Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) has seemingly smoothed out his differences with his Beverly Hills superior Bogomil (Ronny Cox), but there's trouble ahead for both men, not to mention two other holdovers from the first Cop film, officers Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) and Taggart (John Ashton). The "untouchable" heavy this time out is masterminding a series of violent robberies, committed by leather-freak hoods Dean Stockwell and Brigitte Nielsen. Unaccumstomed to this nastiness, Bogomil entreats street-smart Foley to help find the miscreants. But mean-spirited chief of police Lutz (Allen Garfield) will brook no interference from outsiders-especially the profanely insouciant Mr. Foley. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
What is comedy? That's a pretty basic question, I know, but Cop II never thought to ask it.

Beth Accomando, KPBS.org
Been there and done that better.
-
Clint Morris, Film Threat
Not as good as the original, but fast and funny enough to suffice fans
-
Fred Topel, About.com
Fun sequel
-
Kevin A. Ranson, MovieCrypt.com
Perhaps the pinnacle of Eddie Murphy's career.
