The Nutty Professor
TrailerMassively obese, yet loving and kind-hearted, professor Sherman Klump is painfully shy and a bit clumsy, so his romantic prospects are rather bleak. Klump is on the verge of a breakthrough in DNA restructuring when he meets an admirer of his, named Carla, who is a new teacher. He then decides to test a formula on which he's been working on himself. Suddenly, Klump is transformed into the slim, trim, and handsome Buddy Love; however, the drug also boosts his testosterone level, turning the likable Sherman into the arrogant, skirt-chasing Buddy.Actors: Eddie Murphy, Jada Pinkett Smith, James Coburn, Larry Miller, Dave Chappelle, John Ales, Patricia Wilson, Jamal Mixon, Nichole McAuley, Hamilton von Watts, Chao Li Chi, ...»Director: Tom ShadyacCountry: United StatesDuration: 95 minQuality: HDRelease: 1996IMDb: 5.70 CommentsSort By- Newest

Critic Reviews of "The Nutty Professor"
TIME MagazineJune 06, 2009[Murphy] is able to invest his Professor Klump with an endearing dignity, give his lounge lizard alter ego, Buddy Love, an alligator's bite and then go on from there to play Klump's grandma. Also his mother, father and brother.
Washington PostAugust 20, 2002This is good, seamless comedy.
San Francisco ChronicleJune 18, 2002This is a chance to see Murphy doing what he does best, and for that alone it's worth seeing.
Rolling StoneMay 12, 2001Eddie Murphy is funny again. Sadly, he lacks the guts to follow through on the cathartic self-satire that gives the film its distinction.
Cinema SightJanuary 01, 2016It spends too much time trying to find laughter and not enough time speaking out against fat shaming and our weight-obsessed culture.
Blu-ray.comAugust 19, 2012There's bold work here from Murphy on grand scale of thespian commitment, yet the feature's sense of humor is more dreary than playful, killing the potential of the premise with a constant display of bad taste.
Common Sense MediaJanuary 02, 2011A dumb, offensive movie--a good one to skip.
TV GuideJune 06, 2009Murphy turns the dual roles of a meek academician and his smarmy alter ego, Buddy Love, into an excoriating exercise in self-disclosure.
