Who is the Audience for This Movie?
This movie is aimed at people who like parody movies along the lines of Airplane or the Wayans Brothers hood comedy Don’t Be a Menace to Society While Drinking Your Juice in The Hood.
What I Liked About This Movie
This movie has two really really funny scenes and a few mildly entertaining jokes sprinkled throughout. One of the scenes in question involves Chris Rock before he was famous ordering one rib from a rib joint and the other involves Jack Spade picking up a women in a bar (All I am going to say about that you have to see the scene for yourself). The movie is a good parody of blaxploitation cinema and is something of an oddity because you do not see hood spoof movies done too often.
What Didn’t Work For Me
A lot of the jokes just aren’t funny, these types of movies are usually more about the volume of jokes as opposed to the quality. I was also not sold on the fly guy (Antonio Fargas) sub plot it was not nearly as funny as other sections of the movie.
Should You Watch This Movie?
A lot of the jokes fall flat but the two standout scenes mentioned above make it a really good movie to watch with a group of people.
