The Movie Guy

As a comedic copy of “John Wick,” “Nobody” shouldn’t work as well as it does. But thanks to Bob Odenkirk’s deadpan humor and realistically violent action scenes, “Nobody” does for the male machismo action film what “Deadpool” did for the comic book movie genre.

After 30 years, you’d think the sequel to one of Eddie Murphy’s best and beloved comedies would get a fair shake. It doesn’t. “Coming 2 America” is a disappointing mix of rehashed jokes and missed opportunities.
