COMING TO AMERICA........

Yeah, I watched Coming To America today. The first half is still hilarious.....but the second half is rough. They almost completely dispatch the fish-out-of-water gag that was so well done and turn into little more than an odd twist on some pretty common romantic comedy tropes.

Still an all-time great comedic performance from Murphy though
came here to say the same thing. Watched it last month on Netflix and it's aged horribly, the gags just don't have the same zing to them in 2014

I havent seen a bunch of his stuff, but Waterboy is still funny and Big Daddy is still pretty good.

I guess I just don't like him as an actor. All his comedies are playing the "goofy guy" card and it gets repetitive and old.

Comedies that are still funny: Meet The Fockers (first part), There's Something About Mary, Home Alone 1 and 2 (after that it's trash)

Wedding Crashers.

All I do when I watch that movie now is cringe. Owen Wilson whined his way through the entire movie tryna convince a girl to cheat on her bf for him.

Friday....it just ain't funny to me no more
