Pre-Emptive Review: Meet Dave
My friend Matt once said that Murphy’s Law -” if anything can go wrong, it will “- could best be illustrated by the career of Eddie Murphy.
Additional properties: The wrongness multiplies exponentially when he attempts to play more than one character per movie. Like this one. And this one. And this one. And this one. The wrongness has an inverse ration of offensiveness (skyrockets) to cleverness (reduced to the lowest amusement denominator) when playing overweight characters.
This week, Meet Dave joins the pack.
This is the synopsis:
A crew of miniature aliens operate a spaceship that has a human form. While trying to save their planet, the aliens encounter a new problem, as their ship becomes smitten with an Earth woman.
Need I say more?
Oh wait… yes… I do need to say more and it’s this:
Marc Blucas is in this film.
Which means I might need to watch it to mock it. That’s all.
