The Nutty Professor (1996)

Prior to watching the movie tonight, I thought I had seen it before. However, after finishing the movie, I'll assume that I've only seen parts of it before.

movie - The Nutty Professor - Eddie Murphy is Sherman Klump

In any case, the movie had a decent story and was mildly entertaining. While some of the jokes fell flat and others were just mildly funny, the movie had some hilarious parts to it.

Overall, I'd say you wouldn't miss out if you didn't see this movie, but it wouldn't be a waste of time to see it either. After all, Eddie Murphy plays the role of 7 different characters.

Dinner table conversation. Haha.
Parodies Rocky (1976): Sherman runs up the steps at his university and celebrates.
I totally didn't remember that giant Sherman was just part of Sherman's dream.
The dream spoofs King Kong (1933), King Kong (1976) and Godzilla (1954).

Hahaha. "Hey Reggie, it's good."
Haha. More dinner conversation. "Sometimes when I'm alone, I relate to myself."
