Summary: Dolemite is a super bad ...in a super good movie!
Review: On the surface Dolemite is a bad movie. Bad acting, bad production values and a bad script. So why does it work so well? Heart. Rudy Ray Moore and Company put up such a great effort that this movie that it overcomes all the obstacles it faces. Rudy Ray Moore's, Jerry Jones and D'urville Martin made this film with a $100,000 budget and did a better job than some filmmakers with $100 million budgets. The one thing I love this bout this film is that everyone does their best in spite of the low budget and poor production values. You want to see Rudy Ray Moore get even with Willie Green and those insecure, no business born, junkyard rat soup eating ... And you howl laughing every time he goes into one of his classic "toasts" or shoots off a one liner.
Sure the movie is awful. But the blaring errors only make it better. The boom mikes in shots, shadows of production crew in frames and horribly choreographed fights are so hilarious they only make the comedy funnier. If you want a great movie buy citizen Kane. If you want a fun movie get Dolemite. It's so bad it'll kick your DVD's ...twice a day.

Summary: Creeper you we don't got no fries here!!!!!!
Review: Possibly the finest film of its genre. A smooth talking pimp named Dolemite lives a life of extreme street prowess. Takes on the man and macs it with Queen Bee and all the fruits of her business. A pimp a hustler mac a martial arts specialist he is the best of the best. Without a doubt a rolemodel for young adults around the globe. Just a jive talking mama jama. Breathin down your neck!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the funniest film ever made
Review: quite simply, the greatest action/comedy ever made, and by far the best movie of the blaxploitation genre...those who criticize such trifles as visible boom mics just don't "get it"...what "Dolemite" is is the story of a 20th century folk hero, told by the people who invented him, with no Hollywood bastardization...Moore is brilliant in the role that defined his whole career...and Creeper the Hamburger Pimp says what is probably the funniest line in the history of all cinema (those who have seen the film know what I mean; it has to do with exactly "how bad" Creeper is)...a must-see for anyone who can appreciate black culture...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you crave action, this is your next attraction...
Review: Rudy Ray Moore is a great role model. Not only does he have the superhuman ability to be at least 10 times nastier than any other man or woman alive, but he proved to the world that you can make the most awesome movie in the world with a budget that is around 20 percent (or less) of what was normally used in the 70's. Rudy (the big bad Dolemite himself) is hardly a master thespian, but yet every line he puts out in this film is golden, thanks to his keen thinking to add racial slurs in his sentences, or to just simply shout "MotherF@#KA!" at the end of it, with a great burst of volume for emphasis. Not only can Dolemite swear, but he is gifted with horrible kung fu. Who knew a slow-moving kick could send a 250-pound man flying into the open trunk of your car? I didn't, not until I saw this film, anyway. Another thing I never knew is that about every other film I've seen in my life has taken something from this movie, or given it a nod in some way. I encourage everyone reading these words of mine to pick up this film, watch it, and be amazed at how much it will change your life...for the better.

Summary: THE GREATEST!!!!!
Review: RUDY RAY MOORE IS THE MOST TALENTED ACTOR EVER!!! HIS MOVIES ARE SO FUNNY

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Rudy Ray Moore: Blaxploitation God
Review: So there's really not anything that's actually "good" about this movie. The boom mike has a starring role, the acting is completely atrocious, and I can't remember what the story was 5 minutes after watching the film.

Even so, this movie is totally and wonderfully great. It posesses in spades what many hugh blockbuster do not have: soul and inspiration. Rudy Ray Moore is a middle aged, pretty flabby dude. By looking at him, I'm simply not going to buy into him being a kung fu master and Don Juan to all the ladies. But he seems to believe that he is, and this giddy fun manages to translate to the film.

Don't pop in this DVD if you want a well-made, conventional film; "Dolemite" sits firmly in cult territory. For the cult film lover though, it's hard to disparage bad kung fu, kung fu prostitutes, a hero that commits some pretty serious crimes (which the movie wonderfully fails to adress) and strange and bewildering proto-rapping from Moore himself. This movie is endlessly rewatchable.
