- "Nutty Professor II: The Klumps"
(Reviewed July 31, 2000)
- The weird thing about this movie is that Eddie Murphy as Buddy Love -- the character who is the most obviously Eddie himself -- is singularly unappealing, but Eddie as all of the
Klump family members is excellent. The script is flat-out terrible, but the Klump characters themselves are great; funny and believable, seamlessly interacting with each other and with make-up that is
jaw-droppingly great. Honestly, you will forget it is Eddie Murphy in the make-up. Otherwise, there are some funny lines, but the plot is dumb and goes on too long.
Back Row Grade: C (as in, "C it for the make-up")
