Not what I expected!

Rating:

Pros: humor, fast paced, good satire on Hollywood

Cons: None

This Eddie Murphy movie was not what I expected. I was never a Murphy fan and thought this movie would be like his other movies like 48 hours. I always thought of him as a macho, action movie star.

This was a good change of pace, and very funny and amusing. He makes fun of himself and the whole movie industry (lighthearted of course). Murphy is light and airy and actually plays 2 roles. The roles were opposites of each other but it all worked effectively.

I laughed very hard throughout this movie and would give it an enthusiastic thumbs up!
