“Mr. Church” (** out of four) was a schmaltzy coming-of-age story about the relationship between a young girl (Britt Robertson) and her cook (Eddie Murphy) of 15 years and how it changes both of them. Initially, he is only hired for 6 months but after her mother (Natascha McElhone) passes away he becomes her caretaker. Nicely told and acted but the more it goes on, it’s slow pace and lack of story becomes monotonous. Murphy is terrific in an unusual role for him. A disappointment from director Bruce Beresford, whose “Driving Miss Daisy” and “Rich In Love” this sometimes resembles.
