Coming to America

Coming to America
An African prince decides it’s time for him to find a princess... and his mission leads him and his most loyal friend to Queens, New York. In disguise as an impoverished immigrant, the pampered prince quickly finds himself a new job, new friends, new digs, new enemies and lots of trouble.

It blows me away that a film so dominated by a young central talent got made in this way. I don't think it would be possible anymore and it does feels like a relic.
It lacks the gloss of something modern however I'd say it's better as a result. It loses a bit of steam as it chugs along but remains pretty watchable throughout.
Pleasant and not a lot more.
