Finally got around too watching Mr. Church, starring Eddie Murphy, today.
It certainly shows another dimension to Murphy’s acting range.
The plot is charming enough, probably too much for some (or many).
Characters seem to identify as types – without much variation from that type.
But if you’re in the right mood, I think it’s okay.
And if you’re an Eddie Murphy completist (or a Bruce Beresford completist) you need to tick this one off on your list.
The basic outline was inspired by real life.
Which explains a bit because real life has more inexplicable life situations and relationships than movies.
