The Review: Coming 2 America



Coming 2 America 7/10


Spoilers comin'. A few days ago L. and I watched Coming 2 America. I had not watched the original in years but remember really liking it and the crazy amount of memorable characters and quotes. While I did like this movie and it had some really funny parts and surprising cameos there were some things I did not enjoy which I'll get to. On Prince Akeem's 30th wedding anniversary his father King Jaffe Joffer lets him know that he knows he'll be dying soon and that he still has not had a boy to take over for him as prince. Akeem has three daughters. This gross old shaman reveals that Akeem has another child, a boy, that he does not know about. It turns out that Semmi set him up years ago and they went on a date and Akeem was fucked by what he thought was a wild animal and turns out to be a woman. So yeah. He has a kid. Akeem also needs to make peace with the nearby nation or there will be war and his oldest daughter does not want to marry this weird ass dude.
