Dolemite (D'Urville Martin,1975)

5 reasons to see this film

1. It's Dolemite mother fucka!
2. Hy Pyke! (the greatest actor alive) *slithis*
3. The good ol fashion soul music
4. The boom man that is literally in the shot. not just the boom.
5. Insanely Funny


Dolemite...wow...what can i say? He's just a bad ass that doesn't take shit from the man. That's pretty much it. He like's to have lots of sex, rap about the man and kung fu round house kick two face cops. This film is just amazing. I can see why it's such a classic in the grindhouse blaxploitation world. The film has it all.

One of the big reasons why this film "works" is Rudy Ray Moore. His acting in this film is just straight. Rudy is acting to the fullest and we get to have some great laughs at some of the situations he's in. A Church house or just hanging out at his night club. Every line that comes out of dolemite's mouth is just hilarious. He's hardly ever in a good mood because that man is always trying to bring him down and his authority in the film is just awe inspiring. Everyone knows that dolemite is a force to be reckoned with.

This is a film that you can only talk about with someone that has watched it. I don't want to spoil any of the great laughs or "amazing" action scenes. I can't wait till i watch "The human tornado" which is the sequel to dolemite. Yes, i have the dolemite box set that is dissaproved by the man and i must say..so far it was worth every penny. It just proves that Dolemite is the baddest jive talking mother fucker to walk the planet.

Grade A-
