It is great to see Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall back together again but they just don’t seem to have the same rapport as they did in the 1998 movie, Coming 2 America is funny in parts, but I just didn’t have the same belly laughs I had and still have when watching Coming to America, if you have Amazon Prime then check it out, it won’t cost you any extra.

Finally got to watch a week late due to the floods did I like the yes it perfect but I preferred it to the Eddie Murphy version I won't spoil it to much plot wise. Robert Downey Jr is always abley suppored by Michael sheen who gets to Han it up perfectly but the real stars are the animals themselves who steal the movie from Downey Jr and less said about the accent

"Eddie Murphy was so appropriate. Comedy is the magic of learning to be appropriate. In terms of his performance, he was so damn appropriate. He knew when to play what, and he let the situation lead him into being broad. Because of the situation, he did what he had to do, he was Bugs Bunny talking his way out of situations. That for me is another movie that I would like to do, it made me say, “Damn, I wanna do that.”"

Finally got to watch on Disney + and I would have to admit I'm disappointed by the movie there are some good action scenes but there was something missing from the movie needed more comedy element as I've never watched the original but I knew about mushu the dragon voiced by Eddie Murphy. Here basically he's been written out of the movie big mistake. I think I will try watching the original and probably like it more

If you were to look up the phrase "fish out of water movie", this film would have to be one of the top movies on the list.

After a Detroit police's officer's friend is murdered, he relocates himself to Beverly Hills, California to investigate only to discover law enforcement operates under quite different principles out there.

Alhough Eddie Murphy had made both "48 Hours" & "Trading Places" before this film was released in 1984, this one was definitely his breakout hit.

His crass, foul demeanor juxtaposed against the prim and proper by-the-book procedureness of the CA cops lent itself to many hilarious and memorable moments. His partners Judge Reinhold and John Ashton worked extremely well with Murphy who had really come into his own as a leading man comic actor for this role.

Still one of my all-time favorite comedies.

Russ is my name and reviewing movies is my mutha f*@!n' game. First of all, it's so great to see Eddie Murphy back on the scene. And he killed it taking on the role of Rudy Ray Moore in Dolemite is my Name. The story of Rudy Ray Moore and the making of his first movie is hilariously brought to life by an all star cast, and this time around with more money and better production team the Rudy had on Dolemite. If you have Netflix and don't give this a watch then you're just a no business, born insecure, junkyard mutha.
