Review of Bowfinger (1999) by Bharat V — 01 Oct 2010
A solid comedy!
MPAA Rating: PG-13.
Runtime: 97 minutes.
Tagline:
Loser. Faker.
Plot:
When a desperate movie producer/director (Steve Martin) is unable to get a major star (Eddie Murphy) for his movie, he starts secretly shooting the movie around him...
Plus:
Memorable characters and filled with laughs. Also, there is enough twist in the plot (movie is about aliens while Eddie Murphy is really scared of aliens!).
Minus:
The one premise joke starts getting a little old and boring towards the end.
Overall:
A solid comedy that doesn't lose its charm even after multiple viewings. I saw this long time back and don't mind seeing it again too. Thumbs up!
