My Favorite Films of 1988 (25 movies items)" "The royal penis is clean, your Highness." Directed by John Landis Written by Eddie Murphy, David Sheffield and Barry W. Blaustein Music by Nile Rodgers Cinematography by Woody Omens Editing by Malcolm Campbell and George Folsey Jr."
“I don't think it is John Landis's best film or anything, but there are a lot of very likable things about this film. I agree that when the film slows down, some the jokes do too and the pacing lags slightly then. That said, it is confidently directed, has a sweet story and the jokes that work do outweigh the ones that don't quite. The film looks good too, with some interesting locations and lush cinematography and the soundtrack is memorable. Eddie Murphy does a fine job carrying the film and manages to be very likable, not to mention some fun cameos of his courtesy of clever make-up. Arsenio Hall is good too, and it is wonderful to see James Earl Jones and Madge Sinclair again, same with scene stealers Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy. So in conclusion, I like Coming to America very much, and” read more
