Prince Akeem (Eddie Murphy) is the prince of a wealthy African country and wants for nothing, except a wife who will love him in spite of his title. To escape an arranged marriage, Akeem flees to America accompanied by his persnickety sidekick, Semmi (Arsenio Hall), to find his queen. Disguised as a foreign student working in fast food, he romances Lisa (Shari Headley), but struggles with revealing his true identity to her and his marital intentions to his king father (James Earl Jones).
💜🚔 NARCAN TRAINING SAVES LIVES! EQUIPPING OFFICERS TO HELP THE COMMUNITY! ❤️🙏🏽Look at that smile! 😁🔥 I’m telling you, some people just walk into a situation and bring positive energy that makes everybody around them smile. Officer Garcia, you’ve got that kind of vibe, and I genuinely wish you nothing but safety, love, and blessings out there. ❤️💯But let’s talk about something bigger, too. If you’re going to protect and serve our communities, we need officers trained to do more than enforce the law. We need officers who know how to HELP people, recognize an overdose, administer Narcan, and understand what people are going through. 🫶🏽💜Especially out here in Kensington, where every interaction matters and a little compassion can go a long way. Sometimes, knowing how to save a life is just as important as knowing how to make an arrest.Respect to the officers who bring positive energy, treat people with dignity, and remember that behind every face is a human being with a story. We need more love, more knowledge, more compassion, and more people willing to make a difference. 🙏🏽❤️Protect AND serve. Educate AND understand. Save lives AND build trust. That’s how we make a difference! 🩸🤝🏽Officer Garcia, wishing you nothing but safety, love, and blessings. More God, more love, more community!
Recorded in front of a live audience in New York City, this film features actor/comedian Eddie Murphy performing a scathing comedy routine. Eddie’s uncle (Samuel L. Jackson) and other family members are lampooned in sketch segments, while Murphy largely sticks to stand-up, riffing on fellow black comedians, marriage and various racial and ethnic stereotypes, among many other topics. The concert is particularly renowned for Murphy’s liberal and unrepentant use of expletives.
