Jack McCall, played by Eddie Murphy, finds an unusual tree in his yard after an encounter with a spiritual guru. After discovering that with each word he speaks, a leaf drops off of the tree, Jack refuses to speak at all, as doing so will keep the tree, and him, alive. However, his work, marriage, and friendships are all affected by his choice. Can Jack figure out an alternative method of survival? Or will he simply have to live the rest of his life to the fullest?

2 out of 10 OscarsMy Review!!!
I picked up this movie because hello Eddie Murphy is HILARIOUS!!! Well not in this movie. He isn't allowed to talk. LAME! The movie is suppose to be a life changing event where he learns that he needs to stop being all about himself and stop saying everything he can to get a book deal. He is a book agent.
The only reason I gave this 2 instead of 1 or even 0 is because of the other actors. Small parts but very funny and helped make the movie not a complete failure. Even though Eddie has to find new ways to show what he wants it just isn't the same...
