Critic Reviews for The Taking of Beverly Hills

All Critics (3) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (2)

  • Unable to maintain the compelling strands of its B-movie narrative from jump, lovers of Die Hard knockoffs and early 1990s cinema may find this of interest, while those hoping for a portrait of Los Angeles from the period will also be disappointed.

  • This film captures four times the excess of Die Hard on a quarter of the budget.

Audience Reviews for The Taking of Beverly Hills

  • Aug 13, 2012
    The only thing I expected out of this movie was a 1980's style action flick that would just be something to pass the time away.I also never expected to like or even enjoy it but I did.I loved the action, The bits of comedy here & there & as usual, Matt Frewer is always funny.After watching Short Time I'll watch about any movie he's in.You should take a chance on The Taking Of Beverly Hills.Either you'll (Hopefully) enjoy it as much as I did or it'll just be something to watch
