Eddie Murphy and Judge Reinhold go through their paces for a third time, beginning once again on Murphy's home turf in Detroit then moving to Beverly Hills and a theme park called Wonder World. Even ardent advocates of recycling garbage might query the principle as shown here, though John Landis - who also directed Murphy in Trading Places and Coming to America - does pull off the occasional visual joke and an impressive set-piece car chase. If Murphy looks bored by the whole thing, that fine character actor Hector Elizondo adds some genuine quirkiness.
Plot Summary
