Bowfinger

A near-perfect comedy that could only bit a little funnier but still contains some of the funniest moments in comedy films. Great idea, cast, script and execution. Frank Oz has made some really special movies. Bowfinger is one of his best.

Bowfinger is a hilarious comedy with Steve Martin and Eddie Murphy. The movie is a satire of the
movie industry and is a very underrated comedy. Martin and Murphy are brilliant together, they
should make more comedies together, A+.

Add into the mix Steve Martin, who's last decent film was probably Father of the Bride (1991), and you are left with a 97 minute movie that has arguably two or three funny moments throughout its entire running time. The fact that is has garnered mostly positive reviews still baffles me.… Expand

Enjoyable to watch, but it is farce all the way through. And you get the sense that the filmmakers were so dumb they didn't even understand that it was farce they were making.

May just be Eddie Murphy's last film he'll ever shine in comedy. Bowfinger is a remembrance of all his greatest films being the last in the list. Watch if you must.
