This movie is definitely not for everyone but it somehow worked for me in the end
Eddie has been very vocal about his movie choices. Basically, he does whatever he feels like in the moment, not paying attention to reviews. I'm sure he felt closer to this project than others at the time since he partially came up with the story and characters.
Halle Berry did something similar in 2004 with Catwoman. And Michael Caine in 1987 with Jaws: The Revenge. Sometimes they just need the money I guess lol
@@matthewennis3591good thing about Halle was she at least had a good sense of humor about Catwoman. She even accepted the Razzie award for worst actress, lol
@@sandywolfr26 The Love Guru. Having seen the two, I found The Love Guru a hard watch. Both are unfunny comedies, but Norbit has some great makeup effects from Rick Baker (Practically a given). The Love Guru on the other hand is offensively bad, literally rubbing its nuts in your face.
@@Transmission_Rory Sorry i had a few laughs out of Norbit, Love Guru was painful to watch and can tell the actors didnt literally didn't want to be there
What struck me is that the "jokes" are just... being fat, abusing Norbit for not being masculine, or lowest common denominator stereotypes. It's so bizarre how bad these jokes are as jokes for how good Eddie Murphy is as a comedian. For how much organization, coordination and work it takes to make a movie, it's impressive how little actual effort was put into the script.
They played this movie in the waiting room at my friends dental office. I watched with other waiting patients while my friend was getting a root canal and we was all laughing. Im sorry i know its such a rediculously stupid movie but it was still funny.

I found this movie hilarious as a kid. Now, I can see why it's terrible. But it was dumb, crude, 2000's middle school humor trash that was fun for a laugh
This movie is honestly a guilty pleasure for me in the sense that it's so bad that it's good, IMO. My wife and I quote this movie all of the time and still laugh at how incredibly ridiculous it is, LMAO!

@@famousthaneus9810 Not all of us are the same. If someone doesn't find this movie hilarious it reveals a lot about them. This review is cringe worthy. One is at least 40 something and has never even seen Norbit. Very revealing.
I honestly didn't expect y'all to acknowledge the anti-black woman aspect of this movie. I thought the criticism would be limited to "It's goofy. Just got jokes that didn't age well.". I literally think about this movie often and how casually ignorant it is.
I love how 90% of the comments are like "Um, I might be the only one to say this but I like this film, it's my guilty pleasure" It is a funny guilty pleasure movie XD we all agree on that
bruh i remember being around like 5 or 6 years old and finding this movie in my uncles collection and watched it with him and my family and this movie never left my mind 😭😭
Saw this in theaters and thought it was so bad it made me angry. Rewatched it a few years ago, and the movie’s biggest problem is Rasputia and the constant “fat jokes.” I actually thought the relationship with Eddie Murphy and Thandie Newton was quite sweet, and it probably would’ve been a decent film if they had focused on the latter
Also if you notice Rasputia is a mammy caricature. This movie was highly colorist towards black women. The light skinned female character is kind and attractive while the dark skinned female character is fat, masculine and mean. Eddie Murphy really should have been ashamed for pushing slavery propaganda.
@E M. yall takin it too deep it's called stereotypes. They were being races to the italian dude too im pretty sure italians thought my culture isnt owning a resturant. And asains were being targeted as mr. Wong's stereotype. If anything I'm seeing this as don't be the stereotype and if it makes u sensitive you should go consult with your doctor. This movie will forever be hilarious.
@@martasforthought5687 Naw you aren't thinking deep enough and sound a bit childish (no shade). This movie was highly offensive and would never fly today. These stereotypes are ''hilarious'' to you but affect real life people. The colorism, the fat shaming, and mocking of Asians was painfully juvenile. Frat boy humor.
@wildheart2978 .....sensitive.....u are exactly why the world is what it is today, me too movement, overly gayness acceptance, toxic masculinity attacking, shameful women feminist, and no hope 4 a better next generation teaching.
I've seen people saying that they found this funny at the time, but even at the time as a kid i remember finding it dated and knew how awful it was from the trailer alone
Imo I feel like it's offensive but damb I will not lie I laughed my ass off watching this. My favorite scene is when Eddie and Katt were stalling the wedding!
The part that always cracked me up was when the Waterpark employee was like, "Mama are you wearing bottoms?" & she had to lift up her stomach like, "Of course I'm wearing bottoms!!!"
🤷🏾♂️ call me crazy but I'm in the minority of the comment section and DT crew where I enjoyed this movie. Is it bad? Yes, but there were hilarious scenes that made this movie a bad enjoyable experience to watch. But still appreciated yall for reviewing one of my guilty pleasure movies. Is there a chance where yall would review The Waterboy 😂😂?
I was watching YMS then saw this thumbnail and jumped ship immediately 😂 i look forward to these every week. edit: also the opening scene of Rasputia defending Norbit is one of those moments, you guys are right, where Murphy's comedic genius shines in even his worst stuff. The timing, sound design, context, dialogue casting and characters in that particular scene are all perfect. It sets up everything perfectly and, you're right, fully convinces you that you're about to have a really good time and laugh a lot...then there's the rest of the movie.
After Norbit Eddie disappeared from the silver screen and pretty much his career was fucked until he made a comeback with dolemite is my name which is by far the best performance he's ever given.
Eh, I don't think so. This movie actually performed very well in the box office and people actually do like it. The thing with Norbit is that it was sandwiched between other stinkers he put out so it's easy to think this was one too. I did the same thing until I looked into it further.
I do not think it is fair. I give Eddie Murphy the same leeway I give Adam sander. They have to do these silly movies to get them out of their system. Then they do a great (or good) movies.
One thing could have made this movie maybe passable: make Rasputia ultimately end up being good and the hottie is evil. Maybe Rasputia realizes she’s been an asshole and tries to make up for her past but the brothers are secretly being bossed by the hottie. So Norbit and Rasputia team up to make everything right.
Norbit is one of the most gut busting comedies EVER made. Every few years me and my friends have a Norbit viewing party where we watch it all day long on LOOP.
I put you guys on while I play video games as something to make me laugh while playing since the games music sucks. Y'all were laughing so much and having such a damn good time shredding this movie I'm in tears laughing with you can't even play my game 🤣
That's me with new releases too. Not that I think some of them suck, but all all them don't leave an impression when the game starts which is why I have them in the background
As a kid I remember seeing this and remembering Eddie Murphy's career sorta being a downward Slump afterwards. Dreamgirls does seem like a Lifelong Performance Eddie Murphy worked his ass off for only for it to not matter at all.
I saw this when it came out in theaters. I regret not walking out. Same for Date Movie. Hard to believe that this is the same actor who made classics like 48 Hours, Trading Places, Beverly Hills Cop and Coming to America.
Saying this movie is bad is like saying The Nutty Professor movies were bad as well. Up until the movie Precious came out as a joke every big black fat girl were named Rasputia.
Me too! It’s a comedy. Yes some things are offensive, but only if you take them literal. However in comedy nothing n nobody is off limits. And the girl on the pony to me was not saying that she was fat black n ugly I just didn’t get that take from it. 🤷🏾♀️
Is it just me, or does Martin look slightly annoyed by how obnoxious Korey is being? I mean, Korey has always been a fun, loud guy. But Jesus, the "she's so fat" thing was stretched waaayy too far lol. Settle down Korey.
I remember driving to Florida as a kid and my cousins were in charge of dvds and I was in charge of games. They brought Norbit, Sharktale, and a bunch of low quality bootlegs. So guess who watched Norbit and Sharktale like 4 times in that trip 🙃
This is honestly the first time I've heard someone not like this movie. It's stupid, mindless entertainment. Exactly what it was made out to be. I think this review put a little too much thought into a regular throwaway gag type of movie. I don't know, this was probably my least favorite review by them so far. Love the channel though, keep 'em coming!
Get used to Korey over analyzing movies that were obviously intended to be mindless humor. The kicker is that half of the time he's criticizing jokes that are in the same vein as the jokes he makes 🤷🏾♂️
See, everybody always clowns this movie but it’s stupid funny. Every scene that’s stupid that you guys clown on, you’re still laughing even in this video!! This is a dumb Farrelly Bros Eddie Murphy-flavored movie. I love this dumb movie. It’s not the worst movie ever made. Didn’t deserve a razzie, and I laugh whenever I see it.
This movie was very entertaining, idk why ppl want to hate on it so much. Its nothing I go seek out to watch but if its on im going to sit and watch it. Its really like a live action cartoon
Fun Fact: This movie is technically an Academy Award Nominated Movie, as it was nomnited for Best Make up and Hair at the oscars that year.
And?
@@noneya1238 It’s just kinda insane that technically THIS film has the subtitle of “ACADEMY AWARD NOMINEE”. But so does Suicide Squad so they ain’t too picky.
Movies must’ve been garbage that year
This was also the movie that cost Eddie the Oscar that year for Dreamgirls
So just like Suicide Squad
Corey getting out his chair to scream “she’s fat” repeatedly is why I love this channel. “BILLY DO YOU HEAR ME?!? SHE’S FAT! TELL HIM PIXIE!”

And a Pixie cameo is always a nice bonus.

Yea. It’s funny to me. I keep laugh every time when he say she’s fat
Lost. It.
Forcing Martin to watch this and THE LOVE GURU over two consecutive weeks is a downright act of abuse, Korey. Mayhap he is the Norbit to your Lucretia?
You could use those to movies for interrogating/torturing people. Poor Martin.
If it makes you feel better he didn’t watch either.
@jool7793yea Love Guru was beyond trash and don't think laughed. AT least Norbit i got a few laughs
Seriously I wish I had a friend like Billy, his laughter has me in rollin
Totally infectious.
This movie was terrible, yet fucking hilarious. I consider it a classic. 😂

This movie is definitely not for everyone but it somehow worked for me in the end
so then how is it terrible...it seems that if a comedy movie is hilarious then it did its job
Seems like an oxymoron to call a comedy terrible but hilarious.
It seems like some people haven't heard of the term "so bad, it's good"
How was it terrible but yet a classic. This movie was great.
With something like "Bad Movie Reviews", it was inevitable that "Norbit" would pop up. This episode should be hilarious 🤣

Between Love Guru and Norbit, it was a good thing the Shrek movies kept Mike Meyers and Eddie Murphy relevant.
Still cannot get over how Eddie went from being Oscar nominated in "Dreamgirls"... to *this.* Somebody explain that to me.
Wonder if its partially that its a African American focused movie, Even if its something like Tyler Perry it just gets a lot of actors
Eddie has been very vocal about his movie choices. Basically, he does whatever he feels like in the moment, not paying attention to reviews. I'm sure he felt closer to this project than others at the time since he partially came up with the story and characters.

This is NOT a bad movie. I looooove *NORBIT* I rewatch every year more than once 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Me too! It’s a comedy. Yes some things are offensive, but only if you take them literal. However in comedy nothing n nobody is off limits. And the girl on the pony to me was not saying that she was fat black n ugly I just didn’t get that take from it. 🤷🏾♀️
24:13 it’s gOinG oN Forever😂😂😭😭
Man Norbit is a Lil classic, it's funny and have a late 90s or early 2000s feel to it LOL 😅
This was nominated for an Oscar. Jurassic World, The Big Lebowski, The Shining and King Kong did not get an Oscar nod, but this did.
Is it just me, or does Martin look slightly annoyed by how obnoxious Korey is being? I mean, Korey has always been a fun, loud guy. But Jesus, the "she's so fat" thing was stretched waaayy too far lol. Settle down Korey.
Ikr, he was trying to hard with the fat jokes.
I thought that was the whole point. He was trying to point out how overboard the movie went with the fat jokes.
Could have sworn Norbit was going to be a success said no one ever.
It was a success though
OMG! You bastards finally did it! The one we all been waiting for.
Thank you double toasted! Been waiting on this, Im so excited to see this. These videos really make my day.
“Rasputia’s so fat…” should be a meme at this point
"I heard you laugh no refunds!" lolz
I introduced this movie to my friends in middle school and we thought it was hilarious lmaoo
I remember driving to Florida as a kid and my cousins were in charge of dvds and I was in charge of games. They brought Norbit, Sharktale, and a bunch of low quality bootlegs. So guess who watched Norbit and Sharktale like 4 times in that trip 🙃
My condolences…
Nightmare rotation
39:51 Korey’s Jeopardy beatbox has me chuckling
The Movie That Killed Eddie Murphy Oscar Win lol.
This is honestly the first time I've heard someone not like this movie. It's stupid, mindless entertainment. Exactly what it was made out to be. I think this review put a little too much thought into a regular throwaway gag type of movie. I don't know, this was probably my least favorite review by them so far. Love the channel though, keep 'em coming!
Get used to Korey over analyzing movies that were obviously intended to be mindless humor. The kicker is that half of the time he's criticizing jokes that are in the same vein as the jokes he makes 🤷🏾♂️
korey got so tired of her he started saying “rabutia” instead of “rasputia”😂😂
I was wondering if somebody was gone comment on that lol😂
"Bust-A-Move" Perkin was AWESOME xD
The one Eddie Murphy movie that Noone has talked about is en my opinion Eddie's underrated movie Mr Church.
Yesssssss! That movie is lovely!!!!
Needed this laugh so much! Thank you double toasted 💯
See, everybody always clowns this movie but it’s stupid funny. Every scene that’s stupid that you guys clown on, you’re still laughing even in this video!! This is a dumb Farrelly Bros Eddie Murphy-flavored movie. I love this dumb movie. It’s not the worst movie ever made. Didn’t deserve a razzie, and I laugh whenever I see it.
all this 👆🏿
I feel like this movie was one of those things that were supposed to be stupid. Like you're just supposed to laugh at how stupid it is
This movie was very entertaining, idk why ppl want to hate on it so much. Its nothing I go seek out to watch but if its on im going to sit and watch it. Its really like a live action cartoon
