By Ty Ross Coming 2 America is hands down one of Eddie Murphy’s best, and most successful movies. When it premiered in ’88, it quickly became a fan favorite and international hit. Showcasing a different side of Murphy to those used to the jive talking, street wise characters from his big screen hits 48 Hours and Beverly Hills Cop. Getting his start on Saturday Night Live by hilariously portraying Gumby, The Little Rascals’ Buckwheat and a more urban take on the PBS kid’s show Mr. Roger�...

Movie Review: Coming 2 America an OK sequel to a comedy classic “Coming 2 America” is a fairly entertaining sequel to the 1988 comedy classic,“Coming to America.”  When its working, the film is funny and sweet, but it lacks consistency and focus. At times, the situations feel forced and played out.  While the original certainly was not a perfect movie, there are several inspired and iconic scenes and quotes that are still part of pop culture today. “Coming 2 America” lacks those ...

Highlander Courtesy of Amazon Studios “Coming 2 America,” an Amazon Prime exclusive and the recently released sequel to the legendary 1988 Eddie Murphy film, “Coming to America,” is unfortunately a 33-year let-down. The original director, John Landis, doesn’t make a return; instead, Murphy reunites with “Dolemite” director, Craig Brewer.

Like “Zoolander 2,” “Blues Brother 2000” and “Independence Day: Resurgence” before it, “Coming 2 America” revisits a classic movie with a failed sequel that took way too long to come out. Eddie Murphy rediscovered some of his old magic with director Craig Brewer with Netflix’s “Dolemite Is My Name” in 2019, but  their teaming on “Coming 2 America” (★★ out of four; rated PG-13; streaming on Amazon Prime Friday) is a much more disappointing outing. While the excelle...

Peoples Critic: Film Reviews Review: Coming 2 America Terminator 2, Caddyshack II, Van Wilder: The Rise of Taj. Most sequels are high risk and low reward. Coming 2 America is the latest Hollywood classic to go through the sequel machine. 30+ years after the Coming to America, Akeem (Eddie Murphy) and Semmi (Arsenio Hall) are back in Queens in search of Akeem’s son Lavelle (Jermaine Fowler). A lot of the original cast has returned – John Amos, Louis Anderson, Shari Headley, and...

More than three decades after the first "Coming to America," Eddie Murphy returns with most of the original cast to star in "Coming 2 America."

In 2019, Ruth E. Carter won an Oscar for creating the fashions of Wakanda. It’s only fitting she would follow that by tightening her stitches on the attire of Zamunda, the other beloved cinematic African paradise first seen in 1988’s “Coming to America.” Under her masterful guidance, everyone in “Coming 2 America” looks spectacular, from the soon to be king, Prince Akeem (Eddie Murphy), to the rose petal-throwing women once again led by Garcelle Beauvais. The results are hypnotic; ...

CinemaBlend Playing Tracy Jordan on 30 Rock, Tracy Morgan was given license to spoof a number of famous comedians, and Eddie Murphy is certainly a name on that list – poking fun at the star of Nutty Professor (and, more notably, Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps) with fake movies like The Chunks and The Chunks 2: A Very Chunky Christmas. This in mind, it’s funny to see them working side-by-side in the new film Coming 2 America, but that very much speaks to the positive vibes between...
