A Florida con man uses the passing of the long time Congressman from his district who he just happens to share a name with, to get elected to his version of paradise, Congress, where the money flows from lobbyists. But soon he learns the nature of the game and decides to fight back the only way he knows how, with a con.
Nothing too original here, but I've seen worse
Not one of Eddie Murphy's best films, and if you are expecting another Trading Places, this will leave you feeling a little let down. However that said, there is a lot to like about this film, and a few laugh out loud moments. A pleasant enough diversion, although the story is just a little too formulaic and predictable. It's just a shame that Axel Foley, Eddie's best character role seems to be firmly in the past !
Bridging the gap between the Murphy triumphs of the 1990s (Coming to America, Trading Places) and the comeback brilliance of the late 1990s (The Nutty Professor, Bowfinger), Lynn's comedy sees Murphy as a Florida con-artist who uses his scamming skills to win a place in Congress and keep him in office when the previous Congressman (who shares his name) pops his clogs. (Entirely predictable upshot: he proves surprisingly popular when it comes to politics.) Like most of the star's films, this does have some nice moments, mainly arising from his fast-talking abilities and mimicry, but it's hardly vintage Murphy.
Distinguished Gentleman, The
After a semi-successful attempt at a more sophisticated style in Boomerang, Eddie Murphy seems happier in this return to familiar territory, playing a smooth-talking grifter who tries his hand at the ultimate con — politics. However, on his election as a senator, he quickly learns that the biggest villains are in Washington. Director Jonathan Lynn — co-writer of Yes, Minister — is a lot gentler on the American political scene than he was with our own, but there are some neat satirical jibes and Murphy delivers his most relaxed performance in years. There's plenty of experience in support as well, including Joe Don Baker, Noble Willingham and Lane Smith....
