The homeless guys were Randolph and Mortimer from Trading Places. You reacted to that film last year.
18:10 "Greatest Love Of All" Most people know the Whitney Houston version, the original was by George Benson.
13:39
One of my favorite bits from this movie
“Good morning my neighbors!”
“Hey f*** you!!”
“Yes! Yes! F*** you too!”
Just let your soul glo. Just let it shine through.
😂😂😂😂🤣
@@deving9793James Earl Jones the voice of Darth Vader he was also the main bad guy in Conan the Barbarian with Arnold.
The one he was suppose to marry at least she was hotter than the one he wound up with and obedient lol part two had a lot of the same people but was a let down.
@@deving9793Watch Vampire In Brooklyn it also has Eddie as the vampire.
Fun Fact: The 2 homeless guys he gives money to was Ralph Bellamy (Randolph Duke) and Don Ameche (Mortimer Duke). There was another movie Eddie Murphy did called Trading Places where these 2 brothers were powerful stock brokers. But they get outsmarted by Eddie Murphy and end up broke. If you check the credits of both movies, they are cast as the same characters. In other words, their villains that makes a Cameo from one of Eddie Murphy’s previous movies.
Nice spoiler.
Zamunda walked so Wakanda could run lol
How you get so deep!
😅
34:54 "who the hell are they?" next movie on your list... Trading Places.
Already on the channel💪🏿
😂I don’t know what was funnier the movie or your comments during the movie 😂 once again Devin you delivered an amazing reaction 👏🏾🍿🥤🎥
ONE OF THE BEST IN HISTORY.
Listen to me carefully my FRIEND, this first film is awesome and a classic. BUT do NOT watch the second one, it is so TRASH lol, i was SO hurt at how bad it was.
I’m not even gone do that to myself then 😔
As long as you don’t go into it thinking you’re going to get the original level of good it’s worth watching.
I was disappointed when first watching the sequel, but I’ve watched it more than once.
Also the 2 old white men are from another Eddie Murphy movie trading places...a true classic in its own light
there's a sequel to this ?? wtf
@@xellestarcame out like 2 yrs ago
"That boy got his damn coin..". 😅
At the beginning ist Ladysmith Black Mombazo, the group with Paul Simon made the Graceland Album.
Oha sings like an angel.
When the car showed up and you were trying to think of what it was, I think you were thinking of z28 Camero. But that car was actually a trans am.
No one ever notices one of the flower girls is fancy from the Jamie Fox show, actual name is Gabriel 😊
Trading places is a must watch now.
Ohhh duuude…Trading Places!! You need to do that one also.
I can only count on my hands how many reaction that were so funny to watch w/, our face is sore hurting with you from laughing so much. Im so there for the sequel with you DevinG.
Whitney Houston sang the song that Sexual Chocolate was doing
That actually her song?
The original was by George Benson, but Whitney covered it.
Devin, you should watch a movie called "Life Stinks" with Mel Brooks. You want to talk about "Riches to Rags"..... SHEESH!
Those two homeless men that Akeem gave the money to were Randolph and Mortimer Duke, from an earlier Eddie Murphy movie, Trading Places.
I'm like dying like, James Earl Jones IS Mufasa
2. The appearance of the Dukes is an "Easter egg" from "Trading Places". TRADING PLACES FUNNY AF. Eddie and Dan Akroyd, and Jamie Lee Curtis, it's a guarantee for you
Ain’t no way this man never seen this movie. I will not believe it no way not true
Eddie f*cked imo that chick who stood on one leg and barked like a dog was a keeper. He should have kept out of NYC - they should do a sequel about his regret decades later.
I love this movie. I had the biggest crush on Arsenio.
Road To One Million Subscribers.
You said what happened to Daryl? Well he does have two daughters. Lol.
Oh except for the first two movies but probably made for tv This Is Samuel L Jackson’s first major film role as a robber of the fast food joint
Eddie Murphy did the movie called trading places the two homeless where villains in the movie?
The two old bums were from Eddie's movie called Trading Places. Another very funny movie
Without watching Trading Places with Eddie and Dan Ackroyd you would not get the reference of those 2 old men he gave the cash to. Watch that one asap and then you will get it
He reacted to it, but didn't recognize the guys in this one.
The we,re back guys are The duke brothers Is from trading places
To understand the two bums he gave money to, you should watch Trading Places... If you think this was good, you'll love it.
A movie that’s perfect for you that I never see reactors do…. Harlem nights
(harlem nights.... LIFE.....blacula.....cooley high.....tales from the hood....car wash.....thin line between love and hate) so many that reactors won't do or hesitate to do, maybe because they first do what they feel will get the most views, and probably sacrificing some enjoyable "entertainment" value in the process!
Tell me you watched the end credits. If you haven't, do so.
Watch Trading Places
No, lol guards were the dupes from the movie trading places he was in with Dan Aykroyd that they made to go broke on Wall Street💯👊
You were funnier than the movie. 😅 I think you missed your calling! 🤣😂
Such a good film, sequel was trash though.
I thought you reacted to traing places? if not watch it. you will get the homeless guy joke. i do not want to spoil it.
How you gonna say "Finally a movie with all black people" when this movie is like 40 years old lmao?
You are so quick to put down the sister. Eddie Murphy is a rampant colorist. Maybe the sister felt like she had to "put out" to get male attention because she was dark-skinned, and her sister was always favored because she was lighter?? Men are always looking for a beautiful woman who will love them for them and not their money, but they NEVER look for the average-looking, slightly overweight girl who is smart and has a good heart. No, never that.
Devin man yo have been cutting way to much. Why.
No way this yo first time watching this movie
Dude was singing Whitney Houston.
1. They killed the multiple roles.
2. The appearance of the Dukes is an "Easter egg" from "Trading Places".
3. James Earl Jones AND John Amos! GMAFB😎😎😁
4. A movie featuring John Amos worth a first time/share is "The Beastmaster".
5. "Coming Two America" is OK, but that's about it.
Eddie and Arsenio played a lot of the characters in the movie,the barber shop was all them.
That one guy wasn't but the rest were.
The two guys Akeem gave the money too were the Duke Brothers from the movie Trading Places.
34:49 Those were characters from an earlier film with Eddie Murphy called Trading Places. It's a good, insightful comedy. They're prominent characters.
There is NO way you have never seen this. Best movie ever made.
Definitely Top 10 now
@@deving9793sure someone said it already but the 2 homeless guys he gave money to making a cameo appearance from a previous movie they did with eddie . They were rich Eddie and dan akyrod made them poor .
@@Jaybeast5x - Yeah... who told him to react to this without watching 'Trading Places' first?
@@Mr.Ekshin He did, Jan 2022.
@@AthanImmortal - Wow... most people went 5 years (1983-1988) between watching these films and instantly recognized that cameo as a meta-joke. He sees them only a year apart, and... nothing.
I clicked on this so fast 😂 your reactions are so fun, I'm glad you checked this one out, appreciate you
I appreciate you for watching my content 🙏
I did the same thing. I literally said out loud " Devin never saw Coming to America?" Lol .i gotta see this
Same!
33:08
Fun fact. Akeem's Mom and Dad are played by the same people who voice Simba's Mom and Dad in The Lion King.
😳😳😳 I would never known
This movie is probably the reason they were cast.
He also remind me of one of the characters in Monsters Inc. I’ll have to look that up
Not many ppl realized that about the mom in particular!
Really? I had no idea that the guy playing the Dad ever stared in anything else. Never heard of him before. Seems like the type of guy that if you cast him, people will come. Definitely seems most impressive.
One of the best movies of the 80's. Still holds up today.
Take out the retayrded femynysts propaganda, and it's a masterpiece. with the propaganda, is entertaining and fun but not much more.
“Why does he look bored”
I believe it’s called “gilded cage syndrome”
It's what led to the Buddha. Imagine being so sick of pampering that you go sit under a tree with nothing and eventually spawn a religion and life philosophy based around mindfulness, meditation and minimalism, and for it to persist for over 2500 years.
You have to watch Trading Places to understand the two street vagrants!!!! Also a great classic
He watched it a year ago. Watch the reactor Dasha's reaction to that scene when she realizes who they are.
One of the funniest romantic comedy movies ever made!
Sometimes we just need stupid, dumb, funny movies. Belly laughs!!!
This was the belly laugh for sure
This movie never struck me as stupid, nor dumb. If you're looking for that, check out "Dude, Where's My Car?" for completely stupid yet enjoyable
@@douglasmurphy3266agreed. This is what you call a great comedy.
If You have not seen Trading Places, You should have watched that first and You would have caught onto a subtle nod to another actor in this Movie!
Already on the channel
The reaction to the first few minutes had me cracking up. 😂😂😂 “He got moneyyyy!”
Devin bro, how are you NOT going to react to the credits, and end credit scene? That's FOUL bro!😢😂
I was surprised you'd never seen this. Absolute classic!
Fun Facts about old guys: The old Jewish guy in the barber shop was Eddie Murphy as well
The old guys Eddie gave money to were from Trading Places. Another classic starring Eddie Murphy, and Dan Aykroyd
Massive thanks to Devin G, this reaction was a much needed laugh today. Love from Wales.
P.s I love all DG and his misses. Devin had me laughing till it hurt with this reaction. This is my favourite reaction !
When he calls the guy a welfare case I couldn't breathe.
Wanted to add this is my most favourite reaction by DG!
Akiem has the type of money that even Mc Donalds bk off!!!
2nd one wasn't the same. I can't put my finger on it but I felt like there was something missing with the character building.
Was about to go to bed and your video popped up so here I am from the uk. This as always been a favourite of mine.
Appreciate you family
Eddie Murphy was 27 in this movie playing a 21 year old. Right now he's 62 and still making that big money.
So sad they had to make a sequel. Ruins the greatness of the original.
The sequel was feminist rhetoric.
I had it was bad
If you search on youtube, you'll find a lot parodies of the Soul Glo commerical and Randy Watson 'sexual chocale'.
I think there should be a band called “sexual chocolate”. It’s catchy and hilarious.
The song Randy Watson was singing was GREATEST LOVE OF ALL, originally done by GEORGE BENSON, and remade years later by WHITNEY HOUSTON.
Your laugh is so contagious! 😂😂
😂😂😂 I’m glad. Appreciate you 🙌🏾
36:35 I was waiting for this part. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Never gets old.
I think that Lisa said no because of what the father of Akeem said to her. She felt it would be too much strife to take that kind of drama on
Yep. Also, she was deceived by him. Although it was a ‘good’ deception (for valid reasons), he still lied to her. I think once she was able to reconcile that, with what she knew of his character, she could then accept the love and relationship that they developed. 🩵
U should watch VAMPIRE IN BROOKLYN next lol another Eddie Murphy classic
Eddie Murphy was in shape, but you know that wasn't HIM doing those backflips. You could tell it was a stuntman.
@Devin G Yo G how you been sorry I haven't been commenting on your videos lately but I still always try to catch you before I don't get a chance at times but I hope everything is ok 👍 and your Mom and Dad and family. And I would love to see your reactions towards Bruce Lee The Big Boss from 1971, Fist 👊 Of Fury from 1972, Way Of The Dragon 🐉 from 1972 and Game Of Death from 1978.
“Come back thief!” followed by “Sexy chocolate” are the greatest lines in this movie
The orchestra in Akeem's room was just a front. You saw when Oha turned on the stereo in the little cabinet? That was playing Akeem's wake up music.
Watch "Trading Places" to find out who the homeless guys were. Another Eddie Murphy movie and a comedy classic.
Brotha, how is this you’re first time watching “Coming to America”??? There is a part 2, it isn’t as good, but it’s still decent. Akeem’s parents (James Earl Jones and Madge Sinclair) are ALso Mufasa and Sarabi from Lion King. “The Greatest Love of All” is Whitney Houston. The old guys that Akeem gave his pocket change to was a small crossover from “Trading Places”….which should be TOP 5 of next Eddie movies lol. And it wasn’t about her being into him as a goat hearder and not as a Prince, lies are lies, no matter what you’re still allowed time to process. Really in enjoyed this one boo!😊
Appreciate it!! He voice is so familiar too
Part 2 is terrible 😆
A little constructive criticism, but I trust you can handle it: (Try to make sure that you don't cut out jokes & punchlines when you're editing). Other than that, Good reaction!
Have you ever seen this movie Ghost Ship? If not you check it out. This movie used to scare the shit out of me when I was a kid but now not as much. I watched it the other day and it's still an Amazing horror film. I might get drunk and rewatch it again when get off work tomorrow. Yeah 🍻👍
@Devin G Please forgive me for not being able to comment on your videos of what I be wanting you to check out towards Bruce Lee.
34:50 You have to watch TRADING PLACES (also an Eddie Murphy comedy+ Dan Akroyd + Jamie Lee Curtis) to get that reference.
The barbers calling Akeem Kunta Kinte was an inside joke as several of the cast members were in Roots.
McDowell (John Amos, the dad from "Good Times") actually played older Kunta if I'm not mistaken.
@@clutch236 That is correct. And Madge Sinclair (the queen) played Kunta Kinte’s wife. James Earl Jones (the king) played their descendant Alex Haley in Roots: The Next Generations.
@@nrkgalt Exactly correct! 🏆
34:51 they are from movie ''Trading Places'' with Eddie as a main character too it is a great movie
That and Brewster's Millions with Richard Pryor are one of my most favorite movies
i Love the scene with the father showing Akeem on the money :D
ok Lisa He got his own money and when i tell you he got his own money i mean the boy got his own money !!!
Gotta watch trading places now so you can find out who the bums are.!!!
Coming to America is one of the funniest movies ever made. After a dozen watches, you still find new things to laugh at. This movie is definitely not Disney. LOL.
The "white" Jewish man in the barber shop was actually Eddie Murphy. The make up and the acting was so next level, almost no one can tell that unless you've been told so. Eddie at his best is so good, there are no words to describe it. Of course later in his career, he opted for the "easy cash grab roles without any passion", which sucks, because there is always so much potential in how much he can bring to the table, if his mind and heart is in the right place.
I honestly wish people would just stop commenting DO NOT watch the sequel, it's trash blah blah don't do that to yourself, like wtf are you? a film critic?? Opinions are like a$$holes bro, everybody got one and not all of them are worth a damn.. Let people watch it, draw their own conclusion.. im not saying the sequel to this is fantastic, but damn, hush, let people have an opinion of their own... great reaction Devin, i knew youd love this one 😉👍
Right 💯💯💯💯 Exactly What The Hell im Saying Bro
It’s probably been said but the bums he gave the money to were the big bosses in the movie Trading Places
Consider, for Halloween, Eddie Murphy's horror comedy "Vampire in Brooklyn".
I'm only 3 minutes in and this is the best reaction to this movie 😂😂😂 I'm rollin!!!!
Hi Rollin!
@@clutch236 😂😂😂😂
@@ambamb310 lol
34:52 you gotta watch Trading Places.
I haven’t seen Andrew Dice Clay in forever
This movie 1 is a nostalgia classic, the sequel is nothing more than a cash grab
The first one again like you said is a classic but the second one is at least cool to catch up with the characters.
😂😂😂😂 10:00 bruh your reaction!! I feel you
Best comedy ever. This shit is the greatest
Since your on eddie Murphy you should check out a thousand words next!!!!
it would just take too long to read.
Hey Devin, look up a movie called Gladiator from 1992 with Cuba Gooding Jr. I think you'd like it.
I used to rent that every weekend for months. I remember the main character was one of the accused Marines in A Few Good Men.
@clevelandcbi I think I had a copy of it. Yeah, he was in A Few Good Men and so was Cuba.
