Regardless of the reason, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F is a hit, and Murphy deserves kudos for his efforts to make Axel’s latest case a thrilling revival.
A Family Affair, starring Nicole Kidman, Zac Efron, and Joey King, claimed the #2 spot with 11.6M views.

But things get tricky when courier and new time-traveler Michael (Tosin Cole) teleports into the future and discovers his fiancée Dionne’s (Adebayo Adedayo) life is in danger. To save her, he must find four others with newfound superpowers: Sabrina (Nadine Mills), Rodney (Calvin Demba), Andre (Eric Kofi Abrefa), and Tazer (Josh Tedeku).
