By the way, this review is really an 8/10, not a 10/10. However, I'm giving this movie a 10/10 because it I don't think it deserves a 4.0 rating. It's not the best movie in the world, nor the worst. I liked this movie because it's funny, Norbit (Eddie Murphy) was funny himself. He gets married to a rude, chubby lady named Rasputia, who has 3 older brothers. Before Norbit gets married to Rasputia or even married her in the first place, he becomes friend with a nicer girl named Kate. Throughout the movie, we see Rasputia cheat on and pick on Norbit. She cheats on Nor it by having s*x with her dancing instructor in her dance class. Rasputia sometimes yells at Norbit and sometimes hits him. Towards the end of the movie, we realize that Kate's fiancé only wants to marry her for her money and that Rasputia's brothers wanted the money also. Also, Norbit and Kate get married and Rasputia and her brothers run off to Mexico. The End! Sure, the characters sound like a**holes, but their still funny.8/10

Sexist, racist, and vulgar. I cannot think of anything good to say about this film. If you find humor here, you ought to reflect about your world view

Norbit was definitely disappointing to me when i decided to give it a try one night. The "jokes" were pretty bland and most fell flat. And some scenes were just gross and not even funny. I feel like this movie tried wayyy to hard to be funny, and ultimately failed at it. And to see Eddie Murphy and Cuba Gooding Jr. In this is just depressing! Come on guys, you are great actors, you can do sooo much better than this! I did chuckle a few times, but that was the extant of the laughter. The rest of the movie was just chock full of bad acting, dull humor, bad jokes, and uncomfortable scenes. I would love to actually see a good Eddie Murphy comedy, Daddy Day Care is much better than this one! Much better! I was just glad when this crude, unfunny trifle was over with. 3/10 for Norbit, and I think a 3 is more then fair! Hopefully Cuba Gooding Jr. will make better movie choices, course he did do daddy day Camp, oh god that review is for another day

I've seen this movie a ton of times since its original release and at various ages. I first watched it as a kid and thought it was hilarious, and as a teenager it only seems funnier because now I understand more of the jokes. Everyone who I talk about this movie with agrees that it is non-stop funny. This movie will have you literally rolling on the floor laughing. Every time I see it I laugh myself to tears! I don't understand the movie's low rating, this movie should have at least a 6. I rate it 10/10 stars. Its one of the best Eddie Murphy movies I've ever seen, and I include Trading Places and Coming to America in that judgment. If you want to laugh HARD, watch this movie!
