Released in 1984, "Beverly Hills Cop" isn't just a movie; it's a cultural phenomenon. Directed by Martin Brest, with a screenplay by Daniel Petrie Jr., and a story by Danilo Bach and Daniel Petrie Jr., the film immediately resonated with audiences, becoming one of the highest-grossing films of the year.
