After his successful night club is blown to bits, Pluto and his companions travel across the moon looking for clues as to who is behind the arson.
Along with Bruno and Dina, Pluto visits a seedy motel, his secret hide out and the casino of the most powerful man on the moon searching for the evil doer.
But there are inclinations that the destruction of his club may have been his own fault...
The first thing you need to know about this film is that most of the haters have just jumped on the bandwagon and slated this movie without actually seeing it. Secondly, the film isn't half bad, yes it's a flop and makes no sense whatsoever, but its fun to see such an unmitigated disaster that looks so good.
Murphy is the intergalactic Axel Foley, the Chandler Jarrel of space, Prince Akeem of the moon. Basically he playing the same wisecracking character he always has done, and it still works, for some people.
It works for me still because I know that he changed his views after the risible Harlem Nights and stopped being such an ego maniac, and made films that were not just for him.
The cast are fine, especially Quaid and Dawson, and although there is nothing really funny to speak of, its entertaining and has a good score, and reasonable set pieces.
The final act is completely bonkers, and the overall effect is like spending time with someone who is very attractive but uneducated. Nice to look at, but you wouldn't want to spend any more time with them.
