Director Frank Oz encouraged improvisation during select scenes, and occasionally the result wound up in the film. Some instances of this are Robert Downey Jr. saying "and all this" while flipping through the script of Chubby Rain, Eddie Murphy asking his manager to find him a retarded slave role so he can win an Academy Award, and Steve Martin saying, "It could've worked" after Chubby Rain was shut down.

Eddie Murphy is back and I for one am glad for it! Who can blame the guy for straying towards a couple of kiddie flicks that garnered him millions in cash ($17M for DR. DOLITTLE), while slowly losing his real fan base of people who grew up with him on TV's "Saturday Night Live", and his earlier "funny" movies? I certainly did. But with his two superb performances in this film, and the wonderfully original script written by Steve Martin, it doesn't look like I need to worry so much anymore...at least...for now.
