I knew regardless of what this new version was people would hate! I’m so tired of people being so critical lol. Nothing is going to be as great as the classic and any version of this movie would be compared to the original. It wasn’t fantastic but I didn’t care because I loved seeing Eddie and the rest of the cast in this light. I didn’t go into watching this for any other reason except the nostalgia of it all, and you should to!

@jeaneats Didn't realize this was a remake. My takeaway from the original was the title song 'coming to america' by Neil Diamond, a proud New Yorker. =)

@jeaneats Ditto! Not only that but they even poke fun at themselves. "Sequels are never as good as the first one and so unnecessary but, some deserve an exception."

This was a lazy pointless remake of the original movie it was very fitting in the movie they made a point to mention long sequels to movies nobody asked for this movie fits perfectly. This is a retread of the original movies story recon and everything. I had zero expectations for this film and knew this would be no were near the classic original in terms of quality the jokes in this new movie were bad the woke sjw politics were not nessesary and just annoying. This is a insult to the classic original and shouldn't have happened. The barber shop scene was the only good sequence till the white jewish character started saying we are being taken over by nazis a dig at trump obviously. I am not a trump supporter at all and find this sequence annoying political bs. The way akeem had a son was a stupid lazy way to recon the original and continue the story. The new actors were annoying I don't recommend this trash to anyone the movie is predictable woke trash.

Disappointed. I already knew that it wouldn't be as good as the original, but didn't expect it to be this bad/or cheesy. There were a couple funny scenes, one of them being Akeem & Semmi return to the New York barbershop, and seeing those characters again was awesome! It might've been the best moment in the entire film -- true nostalgia!

I had low expectations when I saw the trailer, but it surprisingly managed to disappoint me even further...
Flat characters, boring plot that relies on the success of the first movie and a painfully lack of ideas.

If this were a standalone movie I would say that it’s decent. I chuckled a few times and was amazed at the cast that was put together for this film. Unfortunately this is a sequel to Coming To America, one of the most funniest beloved comedies of all time. And this film just has too much to live up to and misses the mark quite significantly.

I get why people don't like this sequel.
It felt more like an ode to the first movie and the characters than a proper sequel.
Liked how they used actors from south africa.

But you could see the jokes did not hit as hard as the original or that the story was original. But that was to be expected at some level.

Still I enjoyed it as I went into it with a open mind and no expectations.

I watched for the nostalgia and got a few laughs here and there. It was never going to be a critically acclaimed film but for those who grew up on the first movie I think we have closure :satisfied:. Good to see Wesley Snipes

Strictly for fans of the original.

Watched it as background noise after the first few minutes.

Not one of Eddie Murphy’s better movies in the recent past. Have a feeling he did this strictly to makes the fans of the original happy and for the considerable paycheque he must have received from Bezos.

A sequel I didn't need...at least the wardrobe and sets were absolutely fantastic, unfortunately for me nothing else was.
I was a little bored, think I managed a small laugh once and couldn't wait for it to end.
For me COMING TO AMERICA should have been left well alone, this wont be a repeat viewing for me....I wont be watching it again.
