The ending and how all this is settled is a complete mess From the moment I began watching "Norbit" I was filled with marvel and anger. However, and this is important, the characters of Wong and, especially Rasputia, were just mean-spirited and cruel. Wong was nasty and mean. Rasputia was nasty, mean, disgusting and a horrible way to portray morbidly obese people. I pity anyone with such a severe weight problem Apparently these days it's not right to make fun of minorities I thought this was sad and Murphy clearly was taking the low road to comedy And, I was sick of all this about 10 minutes into the film!!
I cannot believe I actually finished this horrid movie. Fortunately, I am not the only one who felt mad about this film. The public most likely was disgusted and also hated the notion of seeing an entire film of this unfunny crap The bottom line is that Eddie Murphy is super talented.
However, based on this an MANY of his recent films, he seems to have zero sense for what projects to pick. He needs an agent to keep him from making these mistakes But then he made some horrible films as well, Norbit unfortunately scraping the bottom of the barrel.
While not the best and most original story, I liked the idea for Norbit. So what ruined it? Eddie Murphy is good when given good material and doing numerous roles seemed great at first, it worked in The Nutty Professor. The film looks cheap too, and the direction does nothing to showcase Murphy's talents. The worst part were the jokes, none of them were funny, in fact some of them were pretty offensive especially the ones at the expense of Rasputia's obesity, and any film involving gags about oral sex, bikini-line waxing or plans of turning the orphanage into a titty bar makes me wonder why the certificate isn't higher.
Thandie Newton looks beautiful and does try, but in the end it is yet another case of wasted talent. The only redeeming quality was the make-up, that was actually quite impressive, but with such a poor film with a script and jokes as diabolical as they are and stereotypes as long as your arm that seems like faint praise.
