    This movie has nothing to do with Life. Some people just like to speculate

      They’re referring to when Ray fought Gold Mouth & said, I know a bitch named Vera that hit harder.

    • @nrgmanifest

      The connection is "I know a bitch named Della that hit harder than you"... Lemme know if further explanation is needed but I think it's a clever connection albeit small

      In the movie "Life", Eddie made a reference to this movie. That must be what people are talking about.

      Eddie says "I know a beach named Della that hits harder than you" when he fought Bear. Small reference to the fight in Harlem Nights.

    A classic, had no connections to Life, other than the name drop. It was always Eddie's dream to work with his idol Richard Pryor in a movie, and ironically Richard Pryor saw Redd Foxx as Eddie saw him. Boomerang and Vampire in Brooklyn are 2 more Eddie Murphy classics.

    This movie was Eddie Murphy’s directoral debut It’s a classic & was trashed by critics. Here are some fun facts: Della Reese appeared on Sanford & Son & her & Redd Foxx were on the short lived sitcom The Royal Family which was produced by Eddie Murphy. Tommy played by the late Tommy Ford was on the sitcom Martin where his name was Tommy as well. The dude that was crying was Arsenio Hall. He was also in Coming To America & had his own talk show. Dominique La Rue was played by Jasmine Guy. She was on the sitcom A Different World. Here are some sad facts: Redd Foxx suffered a heart attack on the set of the Royal Family which led to his death. Eddie Murphy produced the Royal Family. It was a vehicle for Redd Foxx making a comeback. Eddie Murphy & Della Reese were also in The Distinguished Gentleman. A lot of the cast have passed away such as: Richard Pryor, Redd Foxx, Della Reese, Robin Harris, Danny Aiello, Tommy Ford & Charlie Murphy. Eddie Murphy’s Uncle Ray was also in this movie. Biscuit played by Miguel Nunez said Life & Juwanna Man ruined his career.

    Everyone was excited when it was announcedthat Eddie Murphy & Richard Pryor would do a movie together but this mess is what we got. Eddie Murphy was the director & he blew it. The gratuitous use of racial slurs & the waste of an all star cast are 2 of the negatives about this movie.
    Also if you ever watch the Spike Lee movie "School Days" that j-word is used to insult the Black characters with dark complexions
