Eddie Murphy: Delirious (1983 TV Special)
9/10
Eddie Murphy at his foul mouthed, intelligent and witty best.
7 August 2015
Eddie Murphy shot to fame with Saturday Night Live and cemented his status as one of the funniest comedic actors in the 80's with movies such as 48 Hrs. (1982), Trading Places (1983), Beverly Hills Cop (1984), and Coming to America (1988). The 90's however were a mixed bag for Eddie Murphy with numerous flops affecting his star power as well as deciding to head down the family friendly path which is a total shame.

What can I say about Delirious? To sum it up, it is damn hilarious. I was in stitches throughout this entire time. You have to see it yourself, especially if you are an Eddie Murphy fan. There are far too many hilarious moments in Delirious which I just cannot describe. Nobody is spared and Eddie Murphy did not pull any punches throughout the entire show. It goes without saying that Delirious is well known for its use of strong language and strong sexual references, as well as Eddie Murphy using a total of 230 f-words.

I miss the Eddie Murphy of old which was a million miles funnier back in the day. This is Eddie Murphy which audiences knew and loved in his prime. Foul mouthed, politically incorrect, intelligent, witty comedy at its very best.

Highly recommended for all Eddie Murphy fans and anyone who loves foul mouthed, politically incorrect humour.

Certainly not recommended for anyone that is easily offended.

9/10.
