7 A Thousand Words
Starring: Eddie Murphy, Kerry Washington, Cliff Curtis, Clark Duke
Director: Brian Robbins
Out: 23 March 2012
After stretching the truth on a deal with a spiritual guru, a fast-talking literary agent (Murphy) finds a Bodhi tree on his property. Its appearance holds a valuable lesson on the consequences of what we say. Every word he speaks causes a leaf to fall and when the tree has lost all its leaves he will die. With just a thousand words left he better take his time and use them wisely… It’s a nice concept for a drama or a comic-drama, but judging from the trailer the broad execution looks pretty horrible. From the director of ‘Norbit’ and ‘Meet Dave’, I doubt that third time’s the charm. [Critics: 0%] [Public: 5.6] – Avoid
