Critic Reviews

  • Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews

    Couldn't get a laugh out of me.

  • Phil Hall, Film Threat

    A noisy, flashy, wicked kaleidoscope that mercilessly parodies the blaxploitation genre and Hollywood's miserable stereotypes of African-Americans.

  • Shane Burridge, rec.arts.movies.reviews

    Nearly everything it needs for status as a cult classic except a star turn in the lead role

    While watching this I kept asking myself, "is this really a movie?". Unfortunately it is a movie. Who knows what the plot or storyline is, I had no idea, and there didn't seem to even be one. This movie is incredibly stupid.
