Coming to America (1988) Director: John LandisCast: Eddie Murphy, Arsenio Hall, James Earl JonesJust a few years after he became the biggest box-office draw in America, Eddie Murphy's golden period was already drawing to a close. But this tale of African princes and fast-food heiresses is a scrappily suitable swansong for the Eddie we loved in the '80s, offering his signature blend of crudity, sweetness, wit, style and vague politicking, all wrapped up in a high-concept rom-com package.
