One of Eddie Murphy's underrated films

Reviewed by Fiona G. 6 / 10

Good looks aren't everything

First of all, this movie has some nice visuals. Interieurs, light, even the clothes of the cast look like they were made for each other. The appeal is so perfect, it reminds you of a commercial, which unfortunately holds true to the rest of the film as well. The actors so much try to look swell, sophisticated and suave that it seems they forgot they not only portray the clothes and fancy apartments, but actually characters that interact with each other. This keeps them flat and it is not easy to establish a relationship to them, which also lets most of the humoristic points of the story fail. If you really are into watching movie-length commercials an evening with "9 1/2 weeks" might be more enjoyable.
