They shouldve got rick baker for this


the makeup for both movies was horrible, look what rick did for the klumps, eddie murphy was unreconizable. Martin lawrence still looked like himself in a fat suit unfortunatley.

OK, I don't really understand your post. You say that they should have gotten Rick Baker to do the makeup for this film, but you said you didn't like his work in NUTTY PROFESSOR either so if you don't think he helped Eddie in that film, why would he have helped Martin here? And BTW, Rick Baker won an Oscar for his work on THE NUTTY PROFESSOR.

He said Eddie Murphy was unreconizable. That is a compliment. What is hard to understand?

I just saw the movie life with eddie and martin and , i have to say paired up you can really see who the better actor is, martin sucks and in my opinion cant act his way out of a paper bag, and rick did the makeup for this movie also so it just proves no amount of makeup can make up , lol for bad acting. So big mamas house still sucked even with the *beep* makeup

I must concur that the old age makeup in LIFE was really bad...I am shocked that it is Rick Baker's work because he usually does much better work than that.

ya we really can see who the better actor out of eddie and martin. martin is wayyyy better the eddie. he is a lot more funny. even charlie murphy is better then eddie and thats his brother. and big mommas house kicked ass

Well, I've learned to read and re-read your post and decided that I disagree.

That is the ultimate compliment you can give to Rick Baker regarding this film since Eddie plays like seven different characters in the film.
