  Brilliant. The reason why Eddie Murphy can spend 10 years in the cinematic equivalent of a coma and still be considered a box office draw.

  Not as good as you'd remembered
  
  Hard to believe that this deeply trite no brainer, only made vaguely watchable Eddie Murphy's schtick, was such a hit.

  Five reasons to watch this film:

  If simply hearing the f word amuses you then it's a laugh a minute.
  
  Excessive and totally unnecessary use of the f word in almost every sentence for the first part of the film spoils what would otherwise be quite a funny film.
