Critic Reviews of "Trading Places"
TIME MagazineApril 02, 2008Trading Places also makes Eddie Murphy a force to be reckoned with.
Chicago ReaderApril 02, 2008This 1983 film re-creates a screwball comedy format and then eliminates everything but the crudest audience-gratification elements; any incursions into the more morally complicated side of the genre are quickly curtailed.
VarietyApril 02, 2008Trading Places is a light romp geared up by the schtick shifted by Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy.
Time OutJune 24, 2006As a satire on the internecine savagery of fiscal doings under late Reaganite capitalism, the movie is not as biting as it thinks it is; but it's still the best hoot since Arthur.
Chicago Sun-TimesOctober 23, 2004What's most visible in the movie is the engaging acting. Murphy and Aykroyd are perfect foils for each other.
Radio TimesAugust 03, 2013This blatant, unacknowledged reworking of The Prince and the Pauper is a rattling comedy showcase for the unique talents of Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd, who have seldom recaptured the form they show here.
Total FilmAugust 03, 2013While the two-hour running time overstretches the material, there are plenty of laughs -- as well as sly digs at the racism and greed of the American establishment.
Christian Science MonitorAugust 03, 2013Directed by John Landis with a surprising amount of class, though he lets some of his old Animal House' vulgarity slip ostentatiously into the action.
People MagazineAugust 03, 2013It's all outrageously contrived, and only surprising restraint by director John Landis makes it work. The writing is superb, too, leaving the two funnymen free to do the most inspired textured portrayals either has managed in movies.
Common Sense MediaJanuary 01, 2011Edgy, bawdy '80s comedy not meant for kids.
