It’s Eddie Murphy “as you love to see him!” in this gut-bustingly funny movie that displays his comedic genius in multiple roles! Murphy star as mild-mannered “Norbit,” who gets a second chance at love with his childhood sweetheart, Kate (Thandie Newton, “The Pursuit Of Happyness”). But there’s one huge obstacle: jealous, mean-tempered Rasputia (Murphy), who wants Norbit all to her sizeable self. Can Norbit win the heart of Kate… before Rasputia puts the hurt on him? With an all-star cast including Cuba Gooding Jr. (”Jerry Maguire”), Marlon Wayans (”White Chicks”) and Eddie Griffin (”Date Movie”), “Norbit will make you laugh ’til you cheer!” (Publisher)
