There’s definitely a place for this type of film and I think its target demographic will love it for hitting all the right notes necessary for a good up-lifting cry.
3120d ago
A small, unflashy, borderline incompetent movie like Mr. Church is certainly another sign that Murphy does what he wants. Maybe this guarded performance in a lousy movie is a sign of him wanting to do something better.

Get out your handkerchiefs, but don’t expect to believe a minute of this vastly improbable tale.
3120d ago
Murphy is fine as the title character, although his performance consists mostly of suppressing all of his usual shtick. He certainly doesn’t endow Mr. Church with any unexpected depths. But then neither does the script.
3120d ago
From the director of Driving Miss Daisy, Mr Church is equally retrograde in its racial politics, starring Murphy as a noble servant to two white women.
3120d ago
Bruce Beresford's film is remarkable for how it manages to indulge so many offensive and shopworn clichés at once.
3120d ago
This mirthless Eddie Murphy vehicle from the director of 'Driving Miss Daisy' is rife with hoary 'magical negro' stereotypes.
