Here are the top ten entries in Eddie Murphy's filmography, sorted by ratings:
- (8.10) - Shrek (2001)
- (7.69) - Shrek 2 (2004)
- (7.63) - Eddie Murphy Delirious (1983) (TV)
- (7.29) - Trading Places (1983)
- (7.19) - Mulan (1998)
- (7.09) - Beverly Hills Cop (1984)
- (6.83) - Saturday Night Live: The Best of Eddie Murphy (1998) (V)
- (6.69) - 48 Hrs. (1982)
- (6.61) - Dangerous: The Short Films (1993) (V)
- (6.59) - Coming to America (1988)
Three kids movies, one raunchy stand up comedy, one SNL best-of, the Murphy golden tri-fecta, a Micheal Jackson video collection, and the movie which was the turning point of his career. The challenge is to find something with more variety and more extremes than this.
Additionally, two clicks away from that page was an artist who has an extremely large body of work. For some reason, though, he was always playing "himself". Odd.

That is a messed up rating system. "Comming to America" is about the 20th best movie of all time. Arsenio Hall notwithstanding.

Adaptation; American Splendor; The Bourne Identity; Fight Club; The Whale Rider; The Incredibles; Snatch; Kill Bill, Vol. 1; Kill Bill, Vol. 2; Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrells; Memento; The Princess Bride; Rabbit Proof Fence; Shrek; Spider-Man; Spider-Man 2; The Usual Suspects; Star Wars: Episode V, The Empire Strikes Back; LOTR, Fellowship of the Ring; LOTR, The Two Towers; LOTR.
