Review of Black Dynamite (2009) by Shane D — 22 Aug 2010
Iâ??d been looking forward to watching this film for quite some time. Being a fan of 70s Blaxploitation and witnessing the spot on mimicry of this filmsâ?? trailers I had a peaked interest. I canâ??t say that it disappointed, in fact, for a straight up homage, it actually surprised.
Obviously these kinds of riffs invariably end up running low on laughs once the joke gets old in the 2nd and 3rd acts and this was unable to avoid elements of that feeling. However, there was plenty to love.
The spot on soundtrack featuring Willie Hutch style lyrics, the editing, the continuity issues, the ridiculously rhyme-y jive talkingâ?¦the action, the boobsâ?¦it was all there. Jai White did a great job (when a lot of the original films had less than charming male-leads) â?? overall a bit of a minor classic!
