Sometimes, you have to say fuck funny and just go for the action. If you fuck funny, you call Tony Scott for the action, especially if it’s circa ’87 and he’s coming off of TOP GUN. This is an action riff done in the key of the first film. This flick is a freight train with a weak story but goddamn it’s fun as hell. Eddie Murphy had two good flicks following this film; COMING TO AMERICA, and the underrated METRO. After that he decided to shit on his career and our eyeballs.
SEE YOU ON FORTY DEUCE,
