1980s American comedy starring Eddie Murphy. African prince Akeem (Murphy) is dissatisfied with his luxurious life and unimpressed with the subservient bride his parents have chosen for him. So, along with his faithful manservant Semmi (Arsenio Hall), he travels to New York with hopes of finding the woman of his dreams. When he arrives, he takes a job in a burger bar, hoping to meet someone who will love him for himself and not his money. But despite his eagerness to learn the customs of this strange new land, the comic culture shocks keep coming thick and fast.
