Steve Martin and Eddie Murphy star in this fast paced comedy. It tells the story of struggling wannabe Hollywood player who want to get a last chance at directing a hit Hollywood film before he turns 50 and is officially put on the scrap heap. He develops quite an ingenious method of getting the hottest Hollywood actor to take the leading rule in his ridiculous film. He decided to follow him around filming and developing the script round what he does. Therefor he won’t even know he is in the film. When Steve Martin first started he was an amazing comedian. Fresh, weird and mostly importantly hilarious. Then he became really rubbish. Father of the Bride, Resurrection Man, etc. This is an excellent return to form and Eddie Murphy is brilliant too.
