Leave your thoughts about Mr. Church.
| Rendy ReviewsRendy JonesThis is the film is not only the comeback that Eddie Murphy needed but the comeback he deserved. |
| AV ClubJesse HassengerA small, unflashy, borderline incompetent movie like Mr. Church is certainly another sign that Murphy does what he wants. Maybe this guarded performance in a lousy movie is a sign of him wanting to do something better. |
| ForbesLuke Y. Thompson...the story of how a perfect black servant solves a white girl's every problem without ever once being threatening or contrary |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Josh TerryThere are several things to like about a quiet drama like Mr. Church. But the thing that feels most notable about director Bruce Beresford's story of a young woman and her unique father figure is the presence of Eddie Murphy in the title role. |
| FlavorwireJason BaileyIt's clipped badly by its fuzzy conflicts, twinkly score, comically predictable narrative, and endless, telling-not-showing narration. But Eddie Murphy is remarkable. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian Orndorf"Mr. Church" isn't big on surprises, transforming into tearjerker mode for the finale, but it does have Murphy. It just doesn't know what to do with him. |
| The Film StageJared MobarakNo matter how effective Murphy (great in his first film role in four years) or Robertson is, the fact they are driven by external forces rather than internal can’t be ignored. |
| BeliefnetNell MinowEddie Murphy gives a thoughtful, nuanced, sensitive performance in a film that suffers from a too-predictable script and suffers even more from very bad timing. |
| The Times of IndiaMeena IyerIf you're in the mood for some soppy, sentimental stuff, give this film a try. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe film is emotionally manipulative, to be sure, but it's ultimately hard to resist, especially given the quality of the lead performances. |
