Dan Aykroyd is comedy gold and so is Eddie Murphy. Unfortunately you will not experience the awesome pleasure of Dan Aykroyd as one of the original members of SNL in the 70's. He and the other cast members changed nighttime comedy forever. Another fun movie of his that is underappreciated today is Doctor Detroit. Check it out if you get the chance along with all of Eddie Murphy's Beverly Hills Cop series.

"This thing happens to me every week!" Note: After Clarence Beaks failed in his mission, he was disgraced and was forced to take a job as a high school principal.

In the train I first thought that they all tried to poison him, because they all offered him different foods or drinks, but then they switch the cases anyway. And then for some reason they switch them again. It makes no sense. The train sequence is something that must be straight from Dan Aykroyd's brain and I bet he fought to keep the whole thing in the movie, even though it makes no sense for pacing. Just my hunch, even though he has no writing credit. He's a great idea man but there always needed to be someone to keep him on the road to get good results. He wrote and directed Nothing But Trouble (1991), and it seems he also had final cut on it. It's a mess, and not a good movie, but creatively very interesting. It's like looking into Dan Aykroyd's mind.
