There is nothing in this that you can't wait to see. And those who haven't, I hope you don't support this film out of curiosity. Many of you who have seen it will understand what I mean. There are some lines with attempts at humor that really go too far.

The movie was offensive on other levels too. And for those who argue that it's the character's attitude and not her weight that made her 'the bad guy', then why make her fat in the first place. Still, he plays on it here in such a nasty way that it offended me, an open minded, in-shape male. Now, I'm a realist, and I know that the double standard is not Eddie Murphy's fault. But, really, that just shows the extreme double standard that remains when it comes to overweight men versus women. Maybe Eddie Murphy thought he could get away with this because he shows, in The Nutty Professor, how an overweight man can 'get the girl'. To make it worse, the leading lady is Thandie Newton who is extremely thin, which only goes to further emphasize the other extreme. Eddie Murphy plays an overweight woman who is ugly and evil, and every nasty thing you can think to say about her is said. Most obviously, every 'fat' gag in the book was used.

What was so offensive? I don't know where to begin. It's only the second time I've ever done that, and I'm an avid film goer. And even though I watched to nearly the end, I demanded my money back. The first few minutes of the film started out with a little promise, but it didn't take long for the film to fall to such a low level that I cringed from early in until the movie was over. And that's why I was so surprised to see him star in and even write such a low level and offensive comedy.
