Eddie Murphy gives "the performances" of his career - playing seven roles! - in this hilarious comedy about a genetics professor who experiments with his own fat-reducing serum.

Ratings and reviews

I don't know what this movie is trying to be. One minute it's a sweet rom-com, the next it's a dramatized statement on how difficult it can be for people with weight problems, then suddenly there's tons of fart jokes, and in the middle of all this Eddie Murphy is dropping the n word (quite a bit). What the heck? It looks like a family film, but if you don't edit the film this would easily be a PG-13 on language alone.

The Nutty Professor movie is one of our favorite comedy to watch (oh my goodness he is so hilarious) 😆🤣

The Nutty Professor is my most favorite classic movie on the same year I was born 1996. Eddie Murphy as Sherman Klump along with the family members he also played which that's cool and funny. This will always be my top favorite movie for life.
