Eddie Murphy in "Candy Cane Lane"

So... right back to cheap, family friendly fluff for Eddie Murphy. Disappointing. What happened to the edgy standup tour he said he was getting ready to like 3 years ago, that even Chapelle was scared of? And Beverly Hills Cop 4 was supposed to have already been on Netflix.

Looks entertaining for a Christmas movie.

I didn’t understand how they’re supposed to stop the villain though. Collecting rings for some reason. Trailer didn’t make that clear.

If this wasnt a Christmas movie I'd agree that he should try to be more edgier, but since it's an Amazon movie....im fine with it.

I'm guessing COVID kinda rained on his inspiration. Same thing happened to Bo Burnham.
