The Golden Child (hmv Exclusive) – The Premium Collection Review

Eddie Murphy stars in this 1980s American comedy directed by Michael Ritchie. A divine emissary bearing the promise of peace for all mankind has appeared on Earth in the form of a small child. The forces of evil are naturally quite keen to put an end to this and send their representative Sardo Numspa (Charles Dance) to kidnap the mystic youngster. Some wise elders then decide that their best chance of getting the child back again is to seek help from Chandler Jarrell (Murphy), a Los Angeles social worker who specialises in tracking down missing children. Chandler agrees and soon finds himself involved in all manner of supernatural hijinks.
