One of the dumbest scenes I’ve seen in Hollywood movies with guns is near the end of Beverly Hills Cop in which Eddie Murphy takes that shot from the crooked art dealer Victor Maitland point blank in the shoulder area. That very well could have gone right through him and hit the heart and/or other internal organs and killed him right there on the spot. Instead, he is able to get up and eventually (with Ronny Cox’s Bogomil) shoot Maitland to death and then that while later, he’s just nursing what appears to be a slight superficial wound. OK, so what actually did happen to him?
Yeah, consider if it were a 9mm, he just had the equivalent of a full-on baseball bat blow to the shoulder. Which left a 1/2” hole ripped into his meat and a red hot plug of lead embedded deep in his body. Nah! Nothing! Shock? Pfffft. Just give me an arm sling. I gotta make out with the rescued chick.
Its a movie a MOVIE bfd and a dam funny one
I’ve learned to appreciate Beverly Hills Cop.
For however long it lasts on youtube, Fred Dryer’s Hunter has a lot of episodes up. It was a show I sort of liked then. Now I enjoy the show a lot more.
The same goes for 5-0, the o-rignal.
