A Thousand Words

A Thousand Words_360P

Best comedy movie I've ever watched with a great lesson. Eddie Murphy nailed this. It's emotional, funny and meaningful.

To speak a thousand words in a day without meaning is throwing away the opportunity to make a change in the world, your world. To have the hability to speak is a gift we have and earn to make sense in the world. What does the others need from you? What can you give? Our words can give life or take it. We need to be careful with what we say to make our life easier or harder. Our mouth can open doors or close them once we speak. We just need to be aware of what we say. What we mean transforms into actions. To make a change in what is happening with the world it can be because we don't listen to what is really happening. Learn to express what you really mean, nobody can contradict us if we really mean it. Speaking is easy, but to choose whom to talk is what matter most. Depending on what matters the most we tend to mean things to make a difference in our lives. Speak from within not from the outside. https://pensarparaserfeliz.wordpress.com/2017/04/12/a-thousand- words/

I don't even remember this coming out but I'm glad it was in my feed. It was a cute little movie, very thought-provoking and something we could finally watch as a family. Eddie Murphy has an aged a bit and his expressions crack me up!

A Thousand Words was heartwarming and had a good message! I don't see how you could find something bad about it.

This movie is underrated, don't trust the bad reviews!

Good casting. Good idea for a movie. I'm not sure what age group the humor was aimed at since most of it seemed juvenile. A lot of it made me cringe (OK, I'm older) The moral of the story needed more work too. The movie had its moments but it seemed lacking overall.

Don't be put off by the negative comments, it's a silly comedy with a really good Message we all should heed.

Eddie Murphy brings his acting chops in the latter half of the film, and the beginning bit where he can talk is also pretty spot on. There is lots of Starbucks tho, product placement or what? Sassy Eddie - classic!!! In conclusion, 9.0/10.0. P.S This film also had a lot of flaws including, but not limited too, it wasn't very entertaining, it didn't really work as a film, it had clunky script, barely any nudity and not enough explosions. But aside from this, it was a very competent and capable waste of 90 minutes. P.P.S This film is better than Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2.

Eddie Murphey plays a rather serious role here, the film's a weird mix of drama and comedy and it doesn't quite manage to pull it off. But regardless this film is a bit underrated. The plot's fairly creative if ridiculously unbelievable and leads to many funny situations. But I do feel like they could have done a lot better with the actor at their disposal and the big budget. It does have some nice messages and has some genuinely emotional moments but they're few and far between, Eddie Murphey as a businessman struggling to spend time with his family is refreshing but has been seen before (Haunted Mansion, Daddy Day care etc) 5/10: Not a disaster, worth a watch if on TV but not one of Murphey's best
