    Brett Ratner is the biggest hack making movies today. He makes Michael Bay look like Orson Welles. However, I love me some Eddie Murphy. Not the family friendly Eddie but the rated R 80's era Eddie.

    I hope this movie is rated R.

    Solid comic cast: Ben Stiller, Eddie Murphy, Casey Affleck, Matthew Broderick, Alan Alda and Tea Leoni

    Matthew Broderick's casting will doom this movie. :p

    Eddie Murphy has lost it. He just isn't hard anymore.

    I still love the guy, but kiss 80's Eddie goodbye.

    (Casey Affleck is such a damn good actor)

    Anything this guy has touched since The Lion King has pretty much been a box office disaster or sorely underperformed. Oh well, money isn't everything. ;)

    Looks like Rush Hour with Stiller and Murphy taking the place of Chan and Tucker.

    Could be good, the first two Rush Hours were nice.

    But no way it's gonna be rated R. Murphy doesn't do R anymore.

    The Cable Guy and Election were both good... though also both a long time ago. He was the voice of Despereaux.

    This movie looks pretty funny to me, and at least from the previews looks closer to classic Eddie Murphy than Dr. Dolittle, even if there's not as much cursing.

    Without the movie Rush Hour where would the relationship between Blacks and Asians be now??? Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker pave that wave along with Brett Ratner, lol....

    Nice to see Eddie Murphy act like classic Eddie Murphy from the 80s.
