Beverly Hills Cop II might a shell of the original but still holds some fun entertainment value with Eddie Murphy taking more control over not only the character but behind-the-scenes as well.
Top Gun is a wildly entertaining action-romance featuring the ever so charming Tom Cruise, surrounded by a solid supporting cast including McGinnis, Edwards and Kilmer, directed by the late Tony Scott.
