IMDB- 4.5
Rotten Tomatoes-0
RJG Rating- 10

A book agent has his fast talking ways curbed when a tree pops up on his lawn.

Starring- Eddie Murphy
Director- Brian Robbins

With last years Tower Heist ,Eddie Murphy seemed to have broken his jinx of totally crap movies.But hes back with another worthless movie ,A Thousand Word.This was made way back in 2008 and got released this year.Any movie with such a long delay is already doomed.

Eddie Murphy is the only recognizable star.And he is awful.All his comic antics fall flat and its a pain watching such a comic veteran reaching such low standards.

The story has a concept but it has no idea with what its going with.It doesnt offer much common sense into the behavior of the main lead.For example a tree magically pops up in the front lawn and the couple living there doesnt even take notice of it.Many a times its hard to reason with the choices the characters make.There is a long list of mindless scenes.The movie is also highly predictable.It isnt the first time we have seen a rude/egoistic hero being cursed ,suffers the curse in a lot of funny scenes and towards the end learns his mistake.Whatever message the story wanted to get across is heavily obscured thanks to Eddie.

Direction is very poor.Eddie Murphy is known for his style of talking very fast,but in a movie which has no other attraction,Brian Robbins decides its better to keep Eddie shut for the entire second half.Towards the end he is confused whether he started off with a comedy movie and suddenly the movie takes a turn for the dramatics.And it isnt the usual "comic-hero realizes his mistakes and turns serious to learn his mistakes",this is complete u-turn into hyper drama.

The movie failed to even recover half its budget of 40million.Just give this movie a miss,its not worth the time.
