The movie is Meet Dave. The star is Eddie Murphy. The director is Brian Robbins. And their last collaboration was Norbit (2007), which I admittedly have not seen, but in this particular case, I do not feel that that disqualifies me from passing judgment on the film. So, there are multiple reasons why we should all be fleeing Meet Dave in terror to begin with. And the people who made it think the best way to get us interested in their movie is to have a giant, ego-sized replica of Eddie Murphy’s head driving around Los Angeles? This is a case of road rage just waiting to happen. (Hat tip to Jeffrey Wells and Jason Apuzzo. Another Giant Eddie Murphy head that is making the rounds can be seen here, with co-star Gabrielle Union waving from inside Giant Eddie Murphy’s ear.)
