Eddie Murphy: Raw
1987 · Movie · R · 90 min · ★ 7.3 · 66% critics
A superstar comedian takes the stage for a high-energy stand-up performance packed with celebrity impressions and rapid-fire stories. The routine dives into love, sex, marriage, family memories, and pop-culture riffs, with a deliberately raunchy, provocative edge that aims to shock as much as it entertains.

About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an intense, no-holds-barred stand-up set with bold impressions and relationship humor; Not for you if heavy profanity and deliberately offensive jokes aren’t your thing, even if you liked Coming to America.
Pros: electric stage energy; memorable impressions; lots of big laughs | Cons: very crude language; offensive stereotypes; uneven later stretch
