DVD Reviews of Norbit (Full Screen)

DVD Review: america's critic
Summary: 1 Stars

flatline__________ wth happened here bad cgi makeup and eddie,,, only good thing about this was thandie newton-- hot thats it jokes lame eddie failed this one and meet dave wth is going on!!!!!

DVD Review: Eddie resurrected
Summary: 5 Stars

Rasputia is a mean, cruel and fat bitch. Mr. Wong is a rude, blunt, racist and cool asian; and Norbit is soft, naive, weak but brave in the end. This movie is good, and is really funny (The Latimores are wickedly comic!). Ha ha ha. No more to say. Good for Eddie Murphy.

I think the people that put one star for this one, are fat people with no sense of humor.

DVD Review: Norbit (bluray)
Summary: 3 Stars

This movie did not recieve great reviews from the box office, however, if you enjoy movies such as "Little Man" then you will love this comedy. Eddie Murphy is hysterical as he was in the, "Nutty Professor". I enjoy this movie every time I watch it.

DVD Review: Not bad
Summary: 4 Stars

I thought this movie was hilarious. Of course it seemed more like something a B-rated actor would do but then again that is what Eddie Murphey has been doing latley (except Dreamgirls). There really wasnt any bad acting in it. I do like the fact that Eddie plays many characters in his movie. There is a good plot too. But I felt there was still something missing. But I would still reccomend someone to see this movie.

DVD Review: Eddie Murphy is Hysterical
Summary: 4 Stars

Eddie Murphy playing his huge wife is hysterical. Especially, a scene at the water park. Buy it, kick back and enjoy a laugh.

Description of Norbit (Full Screen)

Norbit (Eddie Murphy) has never had it easy. As a baby, he was abandoned on the steps of a Chinese restaurant/orphanage and raised by Mr. Wong (Eddie Murphy). Things get worse when he's forced into marriage by the mean, junk food-chugging queen, Rasputia (Eddie Murphy). Just when Norbit's hanging by his last thread, his childhood sweetheart, Kate (Thandie Newton), moves back to town. In the comedy Norbit, he'll show them all that nice guys sometimes finish first.
Eddie Murphy stars and stars in this very broad and raucous comedy that finds the Oscar-nominated Dreamgirls actor revisiting the multiple-character shtick that worked so well for him in Coming to America and The Nutty Professor. The latter's makeup-effects artist, Rick Baker, once again transforms Murphy into a variety of grotesques and caricatures, including the hugely fat, monstrous Rasputia, the Asian Mr. Wong, and the timorous Norbit, a nervous orphan raised by Wong and married to Rasputia. The latter, a member of a construction family with a plan to turn Wong's orphanage into a strip club, is a relentlessly narcissistic shrew who puts the screws on Norbit at every turn, especially when he rediscovers his love for an old friend, Kate (Thandie Newton). Kate's wish to buy and maintain the orphanage herself is secretly compromised by her fianc? (Cuba Gooding, Jr.), who is in cahoots with Rasputia's family and using Norbit to further their agenda.

Extraordinarily silly, frequently crude and mean-spirited to an extreme, Norbit is far more sour than The Nutty Professor. But there are moments of inspiration, especially a wedding interrupted by wannabe pimps who launch a profane gospel groove, and a dog that talks to Norbit while he is semi-conscious. For the most part, though, Norbit impresses as a technical marvel utilizing careful shot design and skillful editing. Murphy participates in several remarkable, three-character scenes in which he happens to be all three characters, and those moments move so briskly it's easy to forget one is looking at a comic stunt. --Tom Keogh
