eddie murphy's nightmare
this is the movie that almost ruined his career
Not Worth The Disk Space
I saw this in theaters when it first came out. Murphy and Moore can both be pretty entertaining, so together they should be great, right? Not with this script. Moore's character and Murphy's never even meet. Moore is designing a tank, and some time in the future Murphy is trying to use it. The two story lines are then interspersed to show cause and effect, as the high-tech tank malfunctions time and again --- and even that's not as funny as it may sound. "The Best Defense" is a bomb.
of all the films, they pick *this*?
I guess you will see a lot of reviews by people who still haven't gotten the bad taste out of their mouth from seeing this in theaters. Add me. One of the few films I've walked out on. Why this was chosen to add to the sparse iTMS movie collection is beyond me. I give it one sad, rusty, boring little star.
