Advantages: Great comedy, good storyline. Disadvantages: None.
to entertain us in the film, which I thought was very funny and well incorporated.
John Landis directs comingtoAmerica and I feel he has given us an excellent and very entertaining film. John Landis is now a very accomplished Director who has brought us other great entertainment films such as TradingPlaces, An American Werewolf in London, The Three Amigos, Oscar and Spies like Us. He does a fantastic job with this film giving it great entertainment value in my opinion.
Finally, my review would not be complete without mentioning the Barber Shop scenes that regularly appear through the film in which we see both Murphy and Hall dress up as different characters in the film and again give us very entertaining and comical performances to entertain us.

Advantages: Brilliantly acted and Hilarious Disadvantages: There aren't any - must buy film

MMVI Eddie Izzard live BoxSet
Unrepeatable, Definate Article, Glorious, Dress to Kill, Circle & Sexie all in one beautiful boxset.
I have one question for starters. Do you like Eddie Izzard?
If the answer is YES! then buy this boxset! It's Eddie at his absolute best with so much choice of what to watch. The shows featured range from 1994 to 2003, although Eddie has been around a lot longer!
Unrepeatable is the very first glimpse we have in this fine selection. Filmed in 1994 and including DVD extras such as an Audio Commentary, Trivia Track, Photo Gallery and a Bleeped Audio Track. The audio tracks are definately worth a listen once you've watched the show properly as its Eddie, seemingly off the cuff making remarks on his own work - classic comedy.
Definate Article is next in the showcase, filmed in 1996. This is ...
A box set featuring 'Raw - The Concert Movie', 'Coming To America' which finds Prince Akeem heir to the throne of Zamunda. He insists on choosing his own wife by setting off for America to find her. There the fun starts and 'Trading Places' a fast-moving tale about a rich young investment broker and a poor black street hustler whose lives are irrevocably changed by a wager.
