There's also a special portion that is devoted to the popularity of Eddie Murphy. Fans of the series will find a lot to enjoy here including the expanded discussion on the Stone picture. There's also a good debate when it comes to NO MERCY as Ebert gave it a positive review whereas Siskel really hated it.
