Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Best movie of this year hands down!
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
It was a great movie that made me laugh a lot! Big fan of Eddie Murphy. I think I saw all his movies with my boyfriend. I can't believed it when my boyfriend told me that he was the actor for Rasputia. Just a great comedian. It was a great movie that made me laugh a lot! Big fan of Eddie Murphy.

Why all the hate? I think this film is epic. Very few movies made me laugh as much as this movie did. Top notch comedy! I suppose not everyone has the same sort of humour, but this movie was for me. I have a very wide range of movies, I love sci fi (Star Wars) my favourite one being the Terminator. But this was a movie that I put on whenever I am feeling down, and it never fails to cheer me up. This movie means a lot to me, and I don't why why there is all this Eddie Murphy hate??? I think Eddie Murphy played the character of Respucia brilliantly, and it came across to me how it s]it was meant to come across to everyone else. I don't know if I am one of the only people to have loved this movie, but in my eyes, comedy doesn't get any better than this!
I absolutely loved this movie. I have seen it three or four times now and I still laugh all throughout the movie. The movie is just hilarious and Eddie Murphy does a great job in playing the various rolls. I am saddened to read some of the reviews where people are offended by the humor in Norbit. I guess those people are a lot more sensitive than I am because I thought the humor was fine. I am a big fan of Norbit and would recommend it to anyone as long as you are not over sensitive to fat jokes or racial acknowledgment. I hope that Eddie Murphy keeps coming out with these hilarious movies where he plays multiple rolls because I love them. Norbit reminds me a little bit of a fairy tale.
My problem with this film is as follows: It's not offensive. Humour, in my opinion, is not offensive. This film simply lacks quality. This is what would happen if you taught a third grader all the sexual, racial, and societal humour of a thirty-year-old but left them with the brain of a third-grader. Essentially, there is no quality here. Just not funny, and it's not bad enough to fit into that category of "so bad it's good." It's neither funny, racist, offensive or anything at all. It's not worth wasting your time watching. I watched this movie with a girlfriend and didn't chuckle once, I was simply bored. I miss the good old days of Blazing Saddles and good social commentary.
