SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
diegonegro1 Not only is this a great African-American classic comedy, but one of many great American cult classics.I have recently purchased the collection edition of Rudy Ray Moore.If you love the old school karate movies and black comedies, this is for you! They don't make movies like these anymore. My entire family are movie buffs, so this site is an extreme help on solving many debates. I am deployed in Iraq right now. This helps me to stay connected to world that I know in the states. Thank you IMDb.I recommend this site to all my friends. Dolemite rules! Don't just take my word for it, check them out for yourself. Ten lines is a lot for commenting on one movie I think, but if it gets the point across, I'm all for it!
EarthWindFire82 This movie completely ran laps around the original Dolemite. It had everything that makes a movie great..except for real actors. (Ernie Hudson couldn't do it alone and you KNOW that! LOL) I admit that I have killed my first video tape of this movie and I plan to buy the DVD version again as soon as possible! This movie has so many catchy lines it's pitiful! I am embarrassed to say that I know the theme song backwards and forwards! I love Jimmy Lynch's character to death, and he should have won the Best Supporting Actor Award in Blaxploitation, but the Oscars were NEVER ready for this! This is a random film consisting of Crooked Cops, Breasts, Chases, Bad Editing, and of course martial arts. (Being that it's the 70's and I can say everyone knew some kind of martial arts). I think this movie should be restored and shown one night in the midst of a marathon in local theaters!
arschrock Here we have another movie by the (depending on your opinion) genius or deleriously incompetent tour de force who is Rudy Ray Moore, more well-known for his unsubtly titled riebald "party records" such as "Eat out more often" and "The Cockpit".Here, Rudy Ray Moore goes well beyond the call of duty as he ineffectively attempts to weave a plot based around the loss of Queen Bee's nightclub. But forget plot, did you _really_ rent this expecting something cerebral? It's full of everything you want in a movie.The first 10 minutes of this movie is sheer genius. Absurd "special effects", uproarously bad dialogue, Moore's trademark "kung-fu", and carnivalesque blacksploitation stereotypes set the tone. Yet, the entire film, as far as pure camp goes, is a comedic goldmine as well. In true style, Moore is actually serious about his movies, despite the overacting, bad special effects, and a confusing script. All of this leads to some jaw-droppingly ridiculous scenes which are cliche as they are hilarious.If I have to voice one complaint, it would be: Why is it that Rudy insists on inserting these prolonged spoken word pieces in every one of his movies? This is the only place in the movie where I was tempted to reach for my remote... We can only assume that the reason why he is torturing us is that he was attempting to extend his street cred (he often claims to have invented rap, as well as raucous comedy LPs, among other things)."The Human Tornado" emerges as a much better film somehow than "Monkey Hustle" (which, dissapointingly, featured no monkies) and the almost incomprehensible "Petey Wheatstraw". Personally I like it much better than even the original Dolomite, although at times "Avenging Disco Godfather" does give it a run for its money for raw psychedalic effects (the ending sequence of his aunt looking like she's straight out of an evil dead movie). Features a young Ernie Hudson, however no other big names such as antonio fargas or pam grier pop up.Essentially, Rudy Ray Moore thinks he's all that. You'll either agree, or be so amazed that he exists that you can't stop laughing. Or both.
sidb This movie was recommended to me as a bad movie. I like bad movies, and so do all of my friends, so we watched it expecting it to be bad in that sort of classic blaxploitation good bad way. Unfortunately, it is far beyond that stage and into the realm of drivel and tedium. This is the second worst movie I can recall seeing. Avoid at all costs.
