Movies like Harlem Nights

Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, 'The Cotton Club' sets its story in the jazz scene of the 1920s-30s, focusing on the intersection of music, mobsters, and romance, much like 'Harlem Nights' explores the dynamic nightlife and criminal underbelly of its era.

Another Eddie Murphy classic, 'Coming to America' showcases Murphy's comedic genius as an African prince seeking love in New York City. Fans of 'Harlem Nights' will appreciate Murphy's humor and the vibrant supporting cast.

Starring Laurence Fishburne, Tim Roth, and Vanessa Williams, 'Hoodlum' takes viewers back to 1930s Harlem, where mobster activity thrives. The film's focus on crime, power struggles, and the period setting should resonate with 'Harlem Nights' enthusiasts.

Featuring Eddie Murphy as a suave ad executive and ladies' man, 'Boomerang' presents a romantic comedy with a star-studded cast, including Halle Berry and Robin Givens. Its blend of humor and romance is reminiscent of the lighthearted moments in 'Harlem Nights.'
