Review of Norbit (2007) by Elliot M — 27 Nov 2009
The main reason this got a bad rap is because of Murphy's timing, and his timing WAS bad. (Just nominated for Oscar Award, then does a dumb movie like this.) All in all, Norbit was a surprising bit of fun.
If you like his remake of the Nutty Professor, then Norbit is right up your alley. It's hard to even tell that he plays the Chinese orphanage-owner too. Diverse acting from Murphy that never gets the respect it deserves.
