Don't miss out on what you couldn't see in theaters! Once again, Eddie Murphy is hilarious when he stars as the entire Klump family in this all-new version of the film The Klumps Uncensored: Director's Cut from director Peter Segal. This hysterical version contains outrageous new scenes and never-before-seen footage when Professor Sherman Klump finds romance with fellow DNA specialist Denise Gaines (Janet Jackson)… and discovers a brilliant formula that reverses aging. But Sherman's obnoxious alter ego, Buddy Love, wants out… and a big piece of the action. Now, it's up to Mama, Papa, Ernie and Granny to save the day in this whopping, gut-busting comedy Good Morning America calls an "incredible piece of filmmaking." Get ready to join in the fun as the Klumps are exposed and uncensored!
Eddie Murphy's remake of The Nutty Professor used the good professor's alter ego, Buddy Love, in much the same way that Jerry Lewis did in his brilliant original: a representation of the id out of control that plays like an admission of the actor's off-screen sins. In the sequel, Murphy expands on his Klump family from the first film and makes them major characters. Consequently, his dark side has plenty more places to express itself, particularly through the oversexed grandmother, Sherman's aggressively impotent father, and his just plain surly uncle, as well as Buddy Love (all played by Murphy).
The movie opens with professor Sherman Klump barely holding onto his sanity as his internal Buddy Love makes him say inappropriate things. He decides to extract his mutant Buddy Love gene (a sort of genetic version of electroshock therapy), but afterward is unable to maintain his original personality and intelligence. Sherman is the most bland character of the bunch, and the audience gets stuck with his boring romance with fellow professor Janet Jackson, his struggle to be nice, and generic intrigue surrounding a Fountain of Youth formula he developed. When it's not trying too hard to be nice--heck, one character is anally raped by a giant hamster--the movie works. The moral of the story is that Sherman needs to reconnect with their inner Buddy Love. That goes for Murphy, too. --Andy Spletzer
