Meet Dave

The first trailer has been released for the upcoming Eddie Murphy comedy Meet Dave, which stars Murphy as a guy who is really a craft of some kind, in which itty bitty people live and work. It is sort of like Innerspace, only not fun, creative or even remotely interesting. The only bright spot I can see is that Elizabeth Banks co-stars as, at least as far as we can tell, Dave’s love interest. But then again, how does a robot with 10 little people living inside him have a love interest? Furthermore, if they have sex, is that considered group sex? My brain hurts — just watch the trailer.

As you can see, the film looks short on laughs and long on lame gags. It forces me to wonder why someone as talented (and hot) as Elizabeth Banks got wrapped up in a mess like this. Oh yeah, a paycheck. As for Eddie Murphy, we know his story. After walking out on Oscar night like a kid who got picked last on the playground, he has decided to stay close to the well, doing more films like Norbit, The Nutty Professor and The Adventures of Pluto Nash. File this somewhere in between Norbit and Pluto Nash, under guaranteed suck.

For those of you not horrified by the very thought of this film, you can see more when it hits theaters on July 11th.
