Reviews

  • But what's most visible in the movie is the engaging acting. Murphy and Aykroyd are perfect foils for each other.

  • It's easily the best of the movies I've seen by the various "Saturday Night Live" alumni, and part of the reason it's funny and satisfying is that it doesn't strain.

  • makes Trading Places something more than a good-hearted comedy. He turns it into an event.

    Richard Schickel - Time

  • Trading Places is a light romp geared up by the schtick shifted by Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy.

    19 January 2013

  • Saturday Night Live activist Murphy, capitalising on the promise he showed in "48 Hrs.," steals the show as the quick-witted Billy Ray Valentine in what is certainly more mainstream fare than the earlier SNL staffed capers.
