    No very good, but still great.
    Rudy Ray Moore is something else. And the word "Bonkers" (which is a stupidass word) really describes it well.

    There were a few funny parts. Alot of the movie dragged and the lighting is really dark.

    A FUNNY AS HOOD CLASSIC

    This is actually the last Dolemite movie we discovered - even though it precedes Avenging Disco Godfather.

    What can I say. Cheap as heck, but it is still a good laugh and I will watch it over and over again...boom mic and all.

    REAL SILLY BUT GOOD TO ENJOY

    Petey Wheatstraw is not as focused or as good as Disco Godfather or any of the Dolemite movies. But any movie with Rudy Ray Moore in it is a Blaxploitation jem.
