It only gets blurbed from Earl Dittman at Wireless Magazine.
Its directed by Michael Bay.
It stars Sylvester Stallone, Steven Seagal, Chuck Norris or Jean Claude Van Damme.

There was a time when Eddie Murphy playing tons of characters was a good thing.

People refer to it as "Coming to America".

..it makes you want to disown family/friends who recommended it to you.

....you are more entertained by light fixtures in the auditorium or your timepiece than the actual movie itself.

...If features a man posing as a 400 elderly black woman to solve a crime.

...It superimposes a waynes brothers face on the body of a baby via CGI.

...It features more than a half dozen kicks in the balls.
