Review of Mr. Church (2016) by Tropicaces — 16 Sep 2016
It was nice to see Eddie Murphy back in a movie on the big screen, however I wish it was something better than this. MR. CHURCH is emotionally manipulative and full of awkward and awful dialogue, with lines such as "don't you know? Miracles run in the Brody family!" making me cringe.
The whole film also screams "magical negro" with Murphy being the saving grace time and time again. Murphy is never given a chance to show his charisma and is instead trapped in a boring film.
