Meet Dave Reviews

| Original Score: C- | Feb 18, 2012

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 18, 2011

The new film is mildly amusing family entertainment, but when discussing the career of one of our most seasoned comic actors, "mildly amusing" can only be regarded as a letdown.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 18, 2008

There's a delicious irony to the way in which this supposedly heartwarming comedy gives the impression of having itself been devised by a race of extra-terrestrials with only a tentative grasp of what constitutes heart or humour.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 18, 2008

The puzzler that is Eddie Murphy's career continues apace with this low-fi kiddy-oriented affair featuring the comedian as both a human-shaped spaceship called Dave Ming-chang and the commander of said vessel.

Avoid like the plague.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 25, 2008

Better than average but not worth phoning home about.

Full Review | Jul 17, 2008

Contrary to what its altogether hideous advertising campaign would have you think, the latest collaboration between Eddie Murphy and Norbit director Brian Robbins is not, in fact, the worst movie ever made.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 16, 2008

Even for a high-concept, lowbrow summer release Meet Dave is drab, shoddy work.

| Original Score: 2/6 | Jul 16, 2008

Even in C-movie junk like this, Murphy manages to wring a few laughs out of the material. But the humor is so broad it barely fits onto the screen.

Full Review | Jul 14, 2008

Meet Dave alone may not radically change the course of Eddie Murphy's drooping career. But it is, at least, a little olive branch held out to his audience. And that's better than Nil.

Full Review | Jul 11, 2008

It's a pity someone can't guide the course of Starship Murphy to a smarter, funnier universe than the one he's chosen to explore.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 11, 2008

Dumbfoundingly erratic, for the most part, but smart and funny from time to time, especially when Mr. Murphy, in the pseudo-person of the spaceship, tries to imitate earthling behavior.

| Jul 11, 2008

The lackluster title hints at the dull, witless and hackneyed story.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 11, 2008

The summer popcorn flick manages to deliver more than the standard sci-fi send-up, thanks to a solid supporting cast -- most of whom come from 온라인카지노추천 -- that help bolster Murphy's average work.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 11, 2008

[An] unremarkable sci-fi gagfest.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 11, 2008

Director Brian Robbins keeps going for easy laughs.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 11, 2008

Eddie Murphy -- was that Oscar nominated performance in Dreamgirls just something I imagined? -- continues to trash his very real talent with bottomfeeding material.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Jul 11, 2008

There are some laughs here and there, but this is badly edited hack work.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 11, 2008

Murphy may want to disappear whenever he can, but if he let loose some more, he might not need a facade to hide behind ever again.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 11, 2008
