Eddie Murphy is a good example of how you can only be a superstar for so long. When Beverly Hills Cop came out, Eddie was riding the high tide of fame. The movie was a huge hit and for good reason. It was lively and entertaining and funny. Eddie Murphy shined like a diamond with his fast mouth and quick wit. When Beverly Hills Cop 2 came out, audiences flocked to the theater to see Eddie again. The film was another big hit for Eddie. When Beverly Hills Cop 3 was released, people said, huh, what, who cares? The film was a bomb. Eddie Murphy's downward spiral had begun. I don't think he's had a hit in a long, long time, unless, of course, you count the Shrek films, and that was just his voice. Everything he's done since then is forgettable but he will always be remembered for Beverly Hills Cop.
