    Superfun spot-on homage

    by jjchampion

    I haven't been this entertained at a movie in a long time. Hilarious homage to the Blaxploitation classics of the 70's. If you're a fan of those movies at all, I can't imagine you not loving this.

    Dynamite!

    by Garrick07067

    I enjoyed black Dynamite! The overacting, missed ques and bad dialogue made this hillarious. TommyDavidson, Arsenio Hall and so many others were great. The movie fell short about 3/4 in, but I recommend it. If you watched the movies of the 70s, you will laugh your butt off.

    Married White Dude in Love with Black Dynamite

    by tmac2644

    Run don't walk to see this movie. I watched all the previews on youtube when this first came out at Sundance last Spring. It was so built up in my head over the months I thought there was no way it could live up to my own hype. It jived right past the hype and boogied into instant classic status for me. Shake the scene and go see it you jive turkey.

    P.S. If you are offended and not humored by characters named Mo Bitches and Chocolate Giddy Up than you won't dig this film.
