My Review

Next review is another review of a movie starring eddie Murphy called the Holy Man let’s see what I think below.

The movie starts off with home shopping commercials sale stuff can of odd way to start but ok this network is struggling to make money, and get buyers as well so they looking for a boost to help them out there are familiar faces too at start you do see James brown trying sale stuff and also Betty whit saying makeup what it look like interesting I never see this movie before so I wonder who else will say up Kelly Preston she plays Kate I see a few of her movies she is great acting sure she be good well Ricky and Kate get a flat tire this where Eddie comes in as holy man kissing the ground and then get nailed from someone throwing a soda at him then he see them and goes over to talk them then after getting tire fix when getting ready to leave almost run him over but he pass out can of odd start to Eddie character which is name G yeah just G funny name there.

Anyway he is fine and show up at station 🚉 or network thank them for paying the bills of doctor but funny Kate here welcomes him to stay at her home but Ricky invite him to his house or apartment which look to be on a beach I wonder how long this will work before Ricky gets annoyed by G will see funny part was when G throw out Oj and made his own drink he told Ricky his piss was in there and he spit it out I can of laugh he was joking that was funny indeed.

Ricky throws a party and G comes out and indeed trying to light up party as Ricky is nervous he will mess it up well he pretty much did not he hypnotize a guy and made him feel better in fact everybody approve of him that for sure after that Ricky got a idea for G to work for network and see if it will help out it does ratings go up and they talk to owner and he agrees to let G stay on the network but if he mess up Ricky and Kate will probably be fired well as G is on a air he shows a picture of Ricky and ask everybody to give him a huge think Ricky is embarrassing some but does help shopping items sky rocket so G is hit.

Look like everything was ok and even things between Ricky and Kate are going well little romantic there that for but then a woman comes in and say G father her kids and left them but she told everybody she was lie because someone told her to do this a fool that guy was that for sure.

After that G tells everybody to go look at grass so everybody goes out of there and look at grass this was promote for grass Mat it does sold out quick but you can Tell G is getting worn out that what Kate thinks and time to let him go free this probably where things are going to a hit here close to the end here because Ricky has a chance to move up near the boss and make more money only if he gets G on prime time network Kate hears his plan and this when things go sour between Kate and Ricky here which sad.

Last 15 Ricky indeed pour his heart out there by letting G go and let him continue his journey and not only that he got Kate back as well so the movie ended in great way with G getting the last words as movie ends.

Well have to say Holy man was can of funny need a little more comedy but loved Eddie Murphy as G it was a great character of movie as well I thought plot or story was a little odd but still good with what happen there at the end there would of like to see more where G goes next but they ended it a great way with same place they meet him at start great ended there acting was good some faces show up to sale stuff on network not big roles but good Kelly Preston was great and beautiful in her role as well also thought this would be all comedy but sort of went romantic way between Ricky and Kate as well near the end I hope it worked out for them so if your Eddie Murphy fan and have not see this do so because it was indeed a very good movie that for sure.

I give holy man (1998) a rating of 6/10
