Get the Original Video this is a Rip Off
I suppose SNL didn't want Eddie Murphy's Best of to be the best of the entire collection. I got the original VHS years ago when it came out and it ROCKED! This one has deleted some of the best scenes from the original: Jazz Talk, Reggae for Boy Scouts (at least that's what I'll call it) and the Alfalfa Buckwheat reunion was the funniest ever! WHERE IS IT!??! I like the old.
VERY INCOMPLETE!!!!
I LIKE THIS VIDEO IT IS GREAT AND IT IS FUNNY. BUT IT IS MISSING A LOT OF EDDIE'S PERFORMANCES. I AM GIVING THIS VIDEO FIVE STARS BECAUSE EDDIE'S ACTING IS GREAT AND THE VIDEO IS VERY FUNNY!!!!
The Savior Of "Saturday Night Live"
If it wasn't for Eddie Murphy, "Saturday Night Live" would have gone under in the early 1980s'. He managed to shine through even the worst sketches with an excellent sense of timing and stellar acting.
"The Best Of Eddie Murphy" basically collects Eddie's most memorable moments from the show, including three Buckwheat bits, Gumby's "Merry Christmas, Dammit!" (unfortunately this sketch is severely edited), "Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood" "Pudge And Solomon" (with Joe Piscopo, the only other truly talented regular during the 1980-84 seasons), Velvet Jones and the short film "White Like Me" in which Eddie goes undercover as a white man. To entice hardcore fans who religiously watched the show just for Eddie every week, they've included rare sketches like "Big Damn Plastic Bubble" and "Rock And Roll And Then Some" (with Eddie as a black man claiming to be the fifth Beatle). All of these sketches are lively and hilarious.
To be fair, this dvd does not include all of Eddie's best. There are no "Focus On Film" sketches with Raheem Abdoul Mohammed (a character Eddie played 10 times) or any of his Michael Jackson, Bill Cosby or Mr. T impressions. However, what's here is here and what's here is hilarious.
