Mr. Church

A fine movie with murhphy as its heart and soul

I usually write those reviews for &quot;extreme&quot; reasons. If everybody hated a movie and I didn&apos;t. Or the other way round. Turns out there is another reason. When an actor who was once a star &quot;comes back&quot; with a stellar performance. Mr. Church is that film.

Murphy delivers a heart wearming performance. He is the soul of the movie. I guess we will never know why Murphy so rarely appears on the screen but If you watch him here you can&apos;t help yourself wanting to see him more often.

Don&apos;t get me wrong. This movie has problems and it is corny, sometimes a bit too much. But it is a film for families about families and a heartwarming one at that. Thats why it surely is no 10 rating but also no 4, 3, 2 or even 1 rating. If you want something for the family, if you like films like Forrest Gump and if you like Murphy, this is your movie.

One thing I wanted to say when I read the official critics. They complain about an Afro-American being the servant. If you think that, you clearly didn&apos;t get the movie at all. He is basically father, husband. grandfather in one person. So if you saw him as a servant, you should really think about what that says about you.

Here&apos;s the story of a unique friendship that develops when a little girl and her dying mother retain the services of a talented cook, Henry Joseph Church. What begins as a six-month arrangement instead spans 15 years and creates a family bond that lasts forever.
