Disc 1. The Nutty Professor:
For Professor Sherman Klump, being the big man on campus wasn´t all it´s cracked up to be. His body was disproportionate. His family was dysfunctional. And his love life was disastrous. But now, thanks to the miracle of modern science, his world is about to change as pounds--and inhibitions--melt away. A contemporary twist on the Jekyll-and-Hyde tale, The Nutty Professor stars Eddie Murphy in an Imagine Entertainment production for Universal Pictures inspired by the 1963 Jerry Lewis comedy. Tom Shadyac, whose first feature film as a director was Jim Carrey´s breakout hit Ace Ventura, Pet Detective, brings his deft comic touch to the story of a brilliant, calorically challenged chemistry professor who almost discovers the perfect diet solution. Having tried everything--diets, exercise and weight loss experts--in an unsuccessful attempt to shed some of his 400 pounds, Sherman Klump invents a revolutionary fat gene formula. Testing it on himself, he discovers he´s no longer the man he used to be; in fact, he´s only half the man he used to be. With one swig, the gentle, painfully shy academician is transformed into the swaggering Casanova, Buddy Love--an irresistible ladies´ man who can talk his way out of any predicament. As Buddy Love, Sherman Klump for the very first time experiences life that he could once only envy. No longer the butt of every butt joke--and every other kind of joke imaginable--Buddy Love can dish out what kind-hearted Sherman has always had to take.
Disc 2. Nutty Professor II: The Klumps:
America’s funniest family is back for seconds! Eddie Murphy is hilarious when he stars as the entire Klump family in this enormous comedy blockbuster. The hilarity begins when professor Sherman Klump finds romance with fellow DNA specialist, Denise Gaines, and discovers a brilliant formula that reverses aging. But Sherman’s thin and obnoxious alter ego, Buddy Love, wants out… and a big piece of the action. And when Buddy gets loose, things get seriously nutty. Now, it’s up to Mama, Papa, Ernie and Granny Klump to throw their weight around and save the day in this whopping, gut-busting comedy Good Morning America calls an “incredible piece of filmmaking”. Applauded by audiences and critics alike, Roger Ebert and Richard Roeper give Nutty Professor II: The Klumps: “two thumbs up”..
