Episode 469: Despicable Me 4, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, Best Movies of 2024 So Far

It's a total coincidence, given the Fourth of July holiday, but we discuss a couple of fourquels on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. First, we review "Despicable Me 4," which finds Gru and his family entering witness protection and struggling to assimilate in suburbia. This movie has about eight plots and no plot. It also has an infinite number of Minions, which is the main reason your kids will want to see it. In theaters now. We also review "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F," which is shockingly entertaining. Eddie Murphy slips back into the role that made him a global superstar in 1984 like it's a cozy cardigan. We had a lot of fun with this one, which brings back favorite old characters alongside new ones played by Taylour Paige and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Streaming on Netflix. And because we're at the halfway point of the year, we wanted to take a moment to choose the movies we've loved so far. We have a few in common, but we also deviate here and there.
