Here it's. Here’s your comeback-vehicle reminder of why Eddie Murphy turned such a huge film star some 35 years in the past. In the flat-out hilarious 1970s interval piece “Dolemite Is My Name,” Murphy is the funniest he’s been since we final noticed Sherman Klump and household within the early 2000s — however he’s equally efficient within the handful of comparatively low-key, dramatic moments. It’s a totally realized efficiency. We know the sensation of watching a film the place the characters are laughing it up and having the time of their lives — however we’re sitting there stone-faced, as a result of all of the hijinks and gags on the massive display merely don’t translate.
