Eddie even said, “After the movie came out, they trashed it so bad. He didn’t watch it until 5 years after the fact. After seeing it, he was like,… this was a Great Movie”.

[@MISCDesigns]

The main reason they trashed the movie was because they were trying to blackball Eddie Murphy for calling out the academy for racism. The critics trashed Coming to America as well, but historically speaking were the critics correct?

[@JonJayAllDay]

Was it written or directed the best? No, it’s a bit uneven at times but because of cast and the many hilarious situations that are still funny to this day it all came together really well there’s a reason it still holds up and is considered a classic. Just critics didn’t get it and it was his first real like black movie so they just don’t have the same sense of humor as black people. Also I think some of the critics just wanted to stick to Eddie because of some comments he made around the time about the academy awards and their racism.

[@mikelamb828]

Eddie's masterpiece. Critics never relate to what the public likes.

[@iambiguno]

So remember on the movie LIFE..Eddie Murphy told the guy fighting him over the Cornbread incident..." I know a b***h named Della that hit harder than that"?

What I loved most about this movie was it was a dream come true for many of the main characters - Eddie grew up sneaking out to listen to Richard Pryor and Pryor did the same thing with Redd Foxx. Three generations of Comic Greats riffing off each other's inspirations for an entire movie? EPIC And Danny Aiello & Della Reese are absolute joys in this!

22:15 The bread scene is accurate. Sliced bread wasn't invented until 1928 and wouldn't have been popular in 1930 yet. Bread was sold as a loaf and you had to slice it yourself in order to make a sandwich, which meant slices would often be thicker and uneven.
