The Nutty Professor
CriticsCritics: 64
AudienceAudience: 5.5
A kind, overweight university professor develops an experimental weight-loss serum after falling for a new colleague. The formula transforms him into a slim, confident alter ego, but the new personality’s arrogance creates complications for his romance and his sense of self.
You’ll enjoy this if you like energetic Eddie Murphy comedies, broad physical humor, and warm self-acceptance themes; Not for you if crude jokes, fat humor, or loud antics wear thin.
