RIP KING JAFFI JOFFER...(Coming 2 America Spoilers!!!, and no, the SECOND one.)

Ok. As this is a sequel, I think it was great tbh. It took the characters that were in the first, and put them into a new environment without changing the characters. Akeem is still Akeem, Semmi is still that annoying -blam!- that will be eventually executed, and Lisa is Lisa except she’s fuccin hilarious when she’s drunk. First big event, the Funeral of King Jaffi Joffer. Thing is, they had it when he was still alive then he died on stage standing in his coffin as Midnight Train to Zamunda was sung by What’s-Her-Name-1, pretty sure was Gladys something. They had quite a large amount of stuff, Morgan Freeman, Sugar and What’s-Her-Name-2, and it was all around a funnily amusing mess. And You Know What Morgan, I wouldn’t want to have sex after Jaffi died either. (Morgan Freeman gave the eulogy, and said people didn’t *deep breath* laugh, cry, smile, sing, love, dance, and have sex after Jaffi died,(half of those probably weren’t there except the laugh, smile, and sex part, I was multitasking at the time, Discord is a b!tch) Second, Baba, who didn’t exist before this....(some crazy birch of an old person thing) is absolutely crazy. So a old sod had a vision that Leslie Williams’s character somehow snuck in and nailed Akeem for fun? 🤮 Amusing. But anyway, The Wild Boar doesn’t matter, the son does! Thirdly. Lavelle is a great character. Despite his romance arc with the hairdresser being Akeem 2, Electric Boogaloo, he was great. The uncle and his mother were great characters. The uncle strangling Semmi on live television was great, and so was the entrance. He also took charge of his own training, bringing the uncle in. Fourth, the General....? So somehow, this b!tches sister is the woman that he was going to be married to, and she’s still doing the dog thing? Like, I kid you not, the General’s sister is THAT woman. The plot holes are SOOOOO big but there’s only a few. Why did we not see this general before? Or his nation outside of the sister? Fifth, the General’s Daughter...? Ok, I’m sure that at least one other guy here can agree with me who’s watched the second movie, and seen this part, that Teyana Taylor’s character is at least a bit cute. My issue is that it leaned WAYYYY to heavy in the whole quintessential wives are only there for housework and sex bit. First 5-6 words out of her characters mouth in a song titled “Gett Off”? “23 positions in a one night stand”. That’s too expected IMO, and I’ve watched the first movie. If there was SOMETHING besides the whole “I am yours to command” part from the first movie, I wouldn’t have complaints at all with her character and that bit. Sixth, the General is the stereotypical African dictator? Funniest shit in there to me. But question, if the marriage was to make money and stop a war, and then Lavelle didn’t marry the General’s Robo(tic)--blam!- of a daughter, why are they not in a war....? Another plot hole that I was confused by. So Lavelle and the hairdresser marry, and he just goes with it? Weird. Last, the family values were great, SJW’s and feminists aside. I think Akeem’s eldest daughter would be a great ruler in Africa, and that she’d been preparing her whole life just adds credence to her want to become ruler. The middle daughter is Eddie Murphy’s IRL daughter for those who didn’t watch Good Morning America or read it somewhere. The whole dynamic with Lisa and Leslie’s character who’s name I can’t remember was great, mortal enemies turned to best friends that got drunk at the end. Akeem turned a bit like his father, then Lisa snapped him out of it. TL:DR, a good 8.5/10 for me. Watch it if you can.
