Coming To
America (Film)
It’s seems
everyone I knew in the foreign countries I lived in, wanted to come to America.
However, not many but some, come to American to marry another person with the
goal of becoming an American citizen.
In this movie there
is a different plot, where Eddie Murphy’s character Akeem comes to America to
find his bride. He does this not to get a VISA but to find a Queen in Queens’
New York City.
Unbeknown to the
lady from Queens, Lisa McDowell (Actress Sheri Headley,) whose father owns
McDowell’s, a hamburger joint, that Akeem is a prince who works for her father.
She falls in love with him for who he is and he for who she is her. This love
affair is cut short.
Akeem’s servant,
Semmi played by Arsenio Hall, sends a Western Union message to the King of
Zamunda that they are out of money. The king arrives to bring his son back home
and finds out about the affair.
The comical ups
and downs of this movie will keep your attention. You will hope all will be
alright for the love birds. The king wants a break up.
The next to last
scene goes like this: King Jaffe
remarks that Akeem can't marry Lisa anyway because of "tradition,"
and tries defending himself by saying "Who am I to change it?" with
Queen Aeoleon curtly responding, "I thought you were the King."
You can guess the ending. Murphy and Hall also play the parts
of a barber shop three all.
