    Another hilarious movie with Eddie Murphy in it. Sure, the idea for it sucked and the script was just down right cheesy. But, still, the movie passes as a very entertaining one.

    It's a silly fantasy/comedy mess but Eddie Murphy is in good form at least. Unlike in Norbit where even he could save it. Hell he was one of the things wrong with it.

    A generous two stars for this really pretty awful load of Eddie Murphy starring mystical mumbo-jumbo. It might be Eddie-lite being a PG-13 and all but there's a real focus on the ass from the Man Who Would Be Norbit, whether it be kicking, spanking or whatever the hell else you can do to asses...

    Ok,some of the effects in this might be dodgy and the number of ass jokes made by Eddie Murphy throughout the film is stupid but this is still quite watchable and quite funny!
