By now, somehow, I have managed to watch all the movies starring Eddie Murphy (all right, I have to admit it, I haven’t watch ‘Mr. Church’ but I’m not really optimistic.). Well, the guy must have had one of the most disappointing careers ever and I would be really surprised if he would eventually manage to make a come-back at some point. Anyway, even back in the 80’s, when Murphy used to be one of the biggest movie stars in the world, some of his movies were actually already pretty weak and this movie was a fine example. Indeed, even though it did make some money at the box-office, it was rather poorly received and I thought it was indeed a rather weird movie. Basically, it was some kind of awkward combination involving comedy, action, adventure and even some paranormal stuff. Unfortunately, this combination didn't work at all. Apparently, this project started out as some kind of adventure feature like ‘Indiana Jones’ but when Eddie Murphy came on board, they decided to add his trademark humor which was such a bad idea. To conclude, even though I have seen much worse coming from this actor, it was still pretty weak and I don’t think it is worth a look.
