Murphy's last funny movie.


And Steve Martin's too. Should have been a bigger hit.

reply

Steve Martin should be slapped for what he did to the Pink Panther.

Murphy's last funny live action role.

reply

I agree that this is the last great one for both Martin and Murphy. Ever since then, both actor's talents have been wasted on terrible scripts.

reply

ABSOLUTELY Murphy's and Martin's swan song. Everything they've done since Bowfinger has been an excrement-greased slide into hell. It's so bittersweet to watch it nowadays... one of the funniest movies ever but one of the saddest.

reply

Agreed.

I must admit, I think the title is a little off-putting. Would have been a bigger hit with a different title?

reply

Showtime with DeNiro was good for a mediocre cop-movie. He's not funny any more.

Nutty Professor II was his last funny movie.

I had trouble finding a laugh in that whole movie ... one of the worst movies I've ever seen.
