It looks awful. But I will applaud it. Dreamgirls MAY, just MAY, be the gateway to an autumnal Eddie Murphy that doesn’t hurt my feelings with embarrassing moves. Were you aware of my intense respect for Eddie Murphy? My uber-fandom? How perfect would he now be for an understated, underdog, under-everything role in an offbeat little crime movie (not that we need another one of those)? A quiet drama? He can do it. You’ve seen it: HE CAN DO ANYTHING. Let the grooming begin. And where is the book? The man needs a good 700-page biography treatment to overshadow hack jobs like this. I am an Eddie Murphy apologist.
