Coming 2 America


This was an enjoyable film.  Predictable in many areas, and also, like to original, cringeworthy at times.

I am not sure how enjoyable it will be for those who have not watched the original which found the right balance between tacky and genius.  In my view, this fell of the line into being too tacky at times, but this was not a film mainly aimed at me.  As you can see from the number of stars, current and past in it, this is a film with a particular audience in mind.

With a very predictable plot, I would imagine that this is not something that those who have not watched the original would love as much as someone like me will.  Overall, an enjoyable film, but I am not certain if that is because of the film, or because I wanted to see what happened to Prince Akeem, Queen Lisa and Semmi.
