Semi-Classic 80's Comedy
By B E Jones from London , 11 Feb 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
What a great film this is. A classic John Landis (Ghostbusters) Film. One of those great comedy films of the 80's. Not perfect, but enjoyable to watch Eddie Murphy at his best, before his recent downfall. If you have not seen this then do. I can't think of anyone that would not enjoy it. If you have, then it might be worth a re-watch, because its probably been a long time.- Was this review helpful to you?

Classic 80's comedy
By Duzzbob (183 reviews) from Bexleyheath , 20 Oct 2009Ahh... Eddie Murphy in the 80's. Before he became a little too big for his boots and was endulged to play every character in his films. It's easy to forget that in the 80's and early 90's he was involved in some good stuff. Trading Places was a Dan Ackroyd vehicle on release but Murphy gets most of the laughs in a croud pleasing 'fish out of water' story. A $1 bet between 2 ageing billionaires let's Murphy 'trade places' with Ackroyd from down and out to rich play boy. Good harmless fun, with a nice little Jim Belushi cameo.- Was this review helpful to you?

Woweee!!
By Donensian (100 reviews) from Doncaster , 12 Aug 2009A Prince and Pauper scenario when with the connivance of two immensely rich Wall Street brokers Eddie Murphy is translated from a down and out panhandler into the manager of the brokerage firm and Dan Aykroyd degraded and criminalised, losing his house, his job, his butler Denholm Elliot and his fiancee in the process all for a $1 bet between the brokers that heredity is more important than environment, the brokers who are brothers are played by old timers in the cinema Ralph Bellamy and Don Ameche. Helping and supporting Aykroyd is the tart with the heart Jamie Lee Curtis. A strong cast putting life into an old story and a cameo appearance by James Belushi. It's worth watching if only for the sight of Jamie Lee stripped down to her thong, as Max Bialystock in another film might have said A Wowwowwoweee!!- Was this review helpful to you?

Quality!
By Jordan (300 reviews) from London , 08 Jul 2009I really enjoyed this movie.
Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy did an amazing job along with the other cast including Jamie Lee Curtis.
The storyline was brilliant, making this such a joyful film to watch, and along with a super ending, this is one movie I would watch again and again.- Was this review helpful to you?
