Gospel. Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 [center]One of my favorite comedies. Not original by any means, but I like Eddie Murphy's role. It's funny, charming and serious. It's also one of the most quotable movies i've seen...good stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBryPKrdGDA Siskel and Ebert 'for the lulz' [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094898/]IMDB page[/url] [u]Favorite part[/u] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWvDao-MpOk&feature=related[/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judedudemude Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 i like how they bring back the duke brothers in comming form america Ralph Bellamy and Don Ameche reprise their roles as the Duke brothers from another Landis and Murphy collaboration, Trading Places. Randolph and Mortimer Duke had lost their enormous fortunes in that film. In this film, the two men are now homeless and living on the streets. Akeem gives them a paper bag filled with money, which they gratefully accept and exclaim "We're back!" A portion of the Trading Places score can be heard during the Bellamy-Ameche cameo. Trading Places is again referenced as the royal entourage leaves the Waldorf-Astoria in the final New York–based scene in the movie: the driver of Akeem and Semmi's limo is played by the same actor who played the Dukes' driver in Trading Places, from whom Billy Ray Valentine (Murphy) seeks counsel when the Dukes pick him up after bailing him out of jail. (some kind of error i guess because eddie murphy played both billy ray valetines and prince akeem and the duke brothers did not even notice the one who just handed them the huge bag of money looks exactly like the man who bankrupted them in the first place) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
