The critics loved this film, Barry Norman even included it in his top ten movies of 1999, have they all gone mad. Bowfinger has to be one of the worst comedies ever made.Steve Martin is no longer funny,since The Jerk he has been on a downward spiral culminating in the diabolical Bowfinger and as for Eddie Murphy he never has been funny. Do not go and see this film, do not rent it and certainly do not buy it. Watch Austin Powers 1 and 2 to see how a comedy film should be made. Yeah baby
