Synopsis: Just let your soul glow with the royally good romantic comedy starring Eddie Murphy as Akeem Joffer a very wealthy and pampered African prince of the fictional African nation of Zamunda where he has been tended to all his life. The wheels are set in motion when his family tries to set up an arranged marriage, but Joffer resists and comes to America in search of a woman who'll love him for himself and not his crown and eventually encounters Lisa (Shari Headley). Accompanied by his closest companion (Arsenio Hall), Murphy quickly finds a job, new friends, new digs, new enemies and lots of trouble. This comedy was a huge hit and received Oscar nominations for costume design and makeup. The plot is paper-thin but the laughs are plenty – so lock that brain away, toss the key and enjoy the absurdity. Keep an eye out for both Murphy and Hall in some unforgettable cameo roles!
