Comedy doesn't get much bigger than this! Eddie Murphy gives more tour-de-force performances than any screen can contain in the uproarious adventures of Dr. Sherman Klump in The Nutty Professor Collection. In The Nutty Professor, kindhearted and brilliant Dr. Klump falls for the beautiful Carla Purty (Jada Pinkett) — but lacks the confidence in himself to win her heart. Desperate to whittle his 400-pound frame down to size, he resorts to an experimental serum, which unleashes his obnoxious alter ego, Buddy Love. The uncontrollable Buddy soon makes life miserable for Sherman, who must fight for control over the monster he's created. Then, Sherman and his family are back for seconds in Nutty Professor II: The Klumps! Sherman has made two of his biggest discoveries yet — a formula that reverses the aging process, and love with fellow scientist Denise Gaines (Janet Jackson). But wherever Sherman goes, Buddy Love is sure to follow ... and soon it's up to Sherman's eccentric family — Mama, Papa, Ernie, and Granny Klump — to save the day in this supersized sequel!

Great Movie, acceptable Bluray
This is a classic movie, albeit a remake. Remake, just like song covers, are only good if you add new takes and ideas to it. The Nutty Professor successfully alters an old classic and created a new one. And just as important to being a good remake, all comedies needs constant laughs over a fairly simple plot, which this does. I always consider the 1990s as one of the best decade for comedies - this being one of them.I am cautious which DVDs I upgrade to Bluray. It's a mess to spend more money on movies you already paid for, but for $11.99 (March 2012) I was happy to spend the money and replace my "2 movie edition" DVD of Nutty professor and its sequel, which is a terrible, unfunny movie that no one should consider watching...ever (it was the only DVD version of the original at the time). Part of my movie collection is a personal library and (as sad as you want to consider it) a collection of my taste. Having "THE KLUMPS" on there was an insult to my integrity. So moving on, I was happy to upgrade this movie without knowing how good or bad the bluray transfer was. Any how it is? It's OK. Yes, it's better than the DVD and looks good but could look a lot better. I'd give the blurry transfer a B. A lot of the movie looks darker than it should - as if someone needs to slide the 'fill light' lever up a bit. Bluray can look much better.Don't let the cover image of the blurry case (100th Anniversary UNIVERSAL) fool you, its only on the card-stock slip-cover, which I always throw out. The actual cover is your standard Bluray without the rubbish studio gloat.Extra features are non-existent. In fact, the menu has an "extras" button but then gives you two options to watch bits about UNIVERSAL, which I don't even care to open. Why do studios think people care about THEM verse the filmmakers who make the good movies? When a movie trailer boasts that a studio brought it to them (like, "from the studio that brought you Gone With The Wind') you know it's bad because they have to use the most extreme connection to a good movie as possible unlike utilizing a talented creative that is attached.In the end, if you are itching to upgrade, you won't be leaping for joy with this disc, but will be happy it's on blurry - it's a worthy upgrade if you value spending an extra $12 to do so and will be satisfied. This is a great movie and Eddie Murphy shows just how funny and talented he is - now if he would only do more movies with jokes in them.
