Editor’s note: Here’s a quick take on Coming 2 America (2021): It leans into its Comedy roots without feeling derivative. Craig Brewer keeps the storytelling tight, favoring character beats over empty flash. Performances (especially Eddie Murphy, Arsenio Hall, Jermaine Fowler) give the story human stakes. Clocking in at 1h 50m, the pacing is controlled, with room to breathe. Not universally praised, but there’s enough here for curious genre fans. The marketing line “A sequel is in the heir.” isn’t just flair; it’s fairly accurate. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
