SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Sameeha Pugh It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

view_and_review A good comedy, in my opinion, is one which has several side splitting moments and is talked about for months if not years. I'm Gonna Git You Sucka had plenty of ROFL moments and I still quote certain scenes to this day with others who have also seen it.I'm Gonna Git You Sucka still reigns as one of my favorite comedies of all time. I saw this as a pre-teen, and again as a teenager, and again as an adult and I never ceased bawling. I will be the first to say that maybe the comedy only has a relevance to a certain demographic so it wouldn't surprise me if many people didn't find it the least bit funny, but I'm not one of those people.Before In Living Color, Keenan Ivory Wayans came up with this gem. He played a retired "military" man who wanted to seek revenge for the death of his brother. How did his brother die? He OG'ed, which would stand for over-golded; an obvious substitute for overdosing on drugs. His pursuit of justice lead to one gut-busting event after another.Keenan was complemented by an all-star cast. There were appearances by Damon Wayans, Kadeem Hardison, Jim Brown, Isaac Hayes, Antonio Fargas and even a young Chris Rock. I couldn't contain myself this movie was so funny. I could rave on and on about IGGYS but alas I only have 1,000 words.

Chase_Witherspoon Hilarious parody of the 'blaxploitation' period in which Keenen Ivory Wayans plays a returned serviceman, desperate to find out the cause of his brother's untimely death. The official cause of death has been determined as O.G. - over gold, of chains, bling in general - but Keenen's convinced that the local mob, led by the aptly titled Mr Big (Vernon) is responsible. He enlists the aid of a number of former 'black heroes' to challenge Mr Big and his cronies.With a cast lifted from the very films it satirises (Casey, Hayes, Brown, Fargas), Keenen has managed to incorporate sage humour with colourful slapstick comedy. The highlights are too frequent to list, but the scene in which a young Chris Rock tries to buy an order of ribs is as good as they come. It's rare that most (if not perhaps all) of the jokes succeed in a parody, by Keenen has achieved a resounding success in that regard. Cleverly, there's no esoteric references to the blaxploitation films that might confuse the viewer; basic references are well sign-posted, so anyone can enjoy the satire.Aside from the leads, the entire supporting cast excels, although veteran character actor Clu Gulager's role appears more prominently in the film's early stages, than he's subsequently featured. Kadeem Hardison and Damon Wayans (one of many of the Wayans brothers appearing) are an hilarious couple of Mr Big's goons, while the late Steve James (recognisable from the "American Ninja" franchise) is a deft piece of characterisation, as a chop-socky homage named 'Kung-Fu Joe'. A smirk or wry smile here and there attests to the fact that the cast appear to be having a lot of enjoyment with their zany characterisations.The praise is endless and so are the laughs. Sets and props often look TV quality, but the catchy music, sharp dialogue and sensational cast more than compensate. A top shelf parody without pretense.

Lewis Marklin Mash Though I realize that this movie may not be for everyone, it is a classic to those grew up in this generation. The Wayon's are at their best, doing what they do. People like Chris Rock are getting their starts in this movie. When, Army Boy, Jack Spade (played by Keenan Ivory Wayans) comes home to the Bronx, where his momma has kept his room the way it was the day he left, he has no idea that he is about to be swept into a crime triangle to try and stop Mr. Big, the new crime boss of the area, who is responsible for the death of his brother June Bug Spade. June Bug died of a horrible OG (aka Over Gold), selling everything he had and selling his soul to contract more and more gold jewelry! The movie just gets crazier and crazier...funnier and funnier as it goes on. He falls in love with his brothers widowed wife, enlists Jack Slade and Fly Guy (Former Pimp of the Year) to team up in an effort to over throw Mr. Big. Jack even gets his his own theme song by none other than KRS-1, one of hip hop's greatest rappers of the time. Give the movie 30 minutes and you will be hysterical. If you like Coming to America, you will definitely like this film.

Newsense Back when spoof movies were actually funny, there was this clever spoof of blaxploitation movies called Im Gonna Git You Sucka. At the time the Wayans brothers were starting to emerge on the scene and this movie was their best work(Don't Be A Menace comes in second). The whole movie was Jack(played by Keenan Ivory Wayans)returns home from the service to find out that his brother passed on. He finds out that his brother worked for Mr. Big and sets out to deal with him and his cronies with the help on Jack Slade and crew others. There are too many funny scenes in this movie but the girl at the club(played by the gorgeous Anne Marie Johnson) removing her hair, leg, and butt was the funniest scene in the movie. Jack's mom(played by Janet Du'bois of Good Times) beating up on Mr Big's goons comes in second. Damon Wayons and Kadeem Hardison were hilarious too as Mr. Big's bumbling henchmen. I think Antonio Fargas's Fly Guy coming out of jail wearing fishbowls in his platform shoes was a riot too. And the scene where Richard Roundtree's character had the swollen bunions.....classic! Im Gonna Git You Sucka came out at a time when you can expect a good spoof and today stands out as one of the funniest spoofs in parody movie history. If you're looking for a good spoof you cant go wrong with this one. Two thumbs WAY up.
