Black Dynamite

Will Breen

Funny as hell. The little filmmaking gags (inconsistencies between shots, the boom mic being in the shot, etc.) blended well with the writing and action to create a pitch-perfect send up of blaxploitation films. "I told you NEVER to interrupt me in the middle of kung-fu!"

Kent Lundblad

This is one of my very favorite hidden gems from 2009. If you haven't seen this movie, you love films from the 1970s, you absolutely owe it to yourself to see this.

Funny at the beginning and at the end, and very long in between. Weak music score, too bad ... Better watch good old SHAFT ... Amusant au début et à la fin, mais pour le reste le film se traine. Bande son décevante ... A revoir SHAFT on perd moins son temps

Christopher R. Smith

Though it never quite reaches the flat-out hilarious level you'd want it to, a very entertaining genre spoof. Dozens of very quotable lines and a cast that gives it their all. It is dry in spots, but makes up for them with a few moments of inspired goofiness.

Erik Gregersen

Hilarious parody of the blaxploitation film that is even funnier for exactly recreating the genre. This film looks like it's from 1973. This is one of the greatest technical feats in cinematic re-enactment. The best parodies have to be the things they are parodying.

Stefan Drees

A very funny parody not only on the blaxploitation films from the 1970s, but also on the whole bunch of spy, conspiracy, missing in action and kung fu movies - also imitating the defects of making films in the B movie genres. It's wonderful how Sanders uses every cliché to create a real over the top thing. And the script is utterly great ("Doughnots don't wear crocodile...").

Phil Worfel

I sort of enjoyed it but much of the spoofery was pretty garden variety silliness rather than fun jabs at blaxploitation. Would have enjoyed it more had it not kept tripping into Hot Shots territory. Michael Jai White, however, was amazing! Great comic timing and perfect execution of persona.

In An Expression Of The Inexpressible

A bit flat with too much use of the same grips and jokes, but it had some great moments. Maybe it needs another watch with a little help of some herb ... Can you dig it?
