Murphy and Akroyd have great chemistry. Belushi makes a hilarious cameo as a man dressed as a monkey at the New Year's party.

If you don't like this movie you may want a doctor to examine your funny bone, it may not be working so well...lol This movie has great comedic actors (Dan Akroyd and Eddie Murphy), a great script that manages to be poignant (without being aggrivatingly patronizing) as well as entertaining and endearing.
