This movie came out when I was too young to watch it. When I finally got to a see it, it became my favorite. Eddie Murphy plays a mild hothead and Richard Pryor plays a settled Cat-daddy. They both master their roles! The humor will make you guffaw, even during action scenes. Check it out!

First of all this movie is GREAT. And it's black majority. Most movies is majority of another nationality, or the first one to die is the only black male.but I do have to say times is changing.
