Drew's Pick:

Coming to America is an absolute classic in Drew's book. Through the years, Eddie Murphy has inhabited countless iconic comedic roles, but Drew thinks his funniest role is in the 1988 comedy, where he portrays a wealthy African prince who needs to find a wife. Drew watches Coming to America year after year and continues to enjoy the film's celebration of love, tradition, and family.



(Eddie Murphy even chatted with Drew and answered all of her burning Coming to America questions!)
