Review of the Reviews: Black Dynamite


This Review  is a very  solid and fair Review of one of my favorite movies of all time. She does a very good job at comparing this movie to the type of movies it's suppose to be parodying and explaining how it does it well. She also brings up the good point, that a lot of people have made about this movie, that it seems overly long winded  and can be boring toward the middle to end. The only problem i have with this review is she gives away too much about the end of the movie  which could be a problem for someone who hasn't  seen it.

This review is also a pretty decent review. I don't think he talks enough about what he didn't like about the movie for the most part he just said that he didn't like the movie with out giving much support. He made a few good points about the topic being overdone and that it doesn't do it very well but he doesn't  explain why. This is why this isn't a great Review but it's still very solid.

I agree more with the first Review of this movie. Allthough this movie does have it's  slow points the funny parts are WELL worth the waiting. There is a slow point right before the end of the movie but the actually end of the movie is absolutely fantastic. I also believe that by making  this movie so over the top it's a lot funnier than actual blaxploitation of the 80's.

I would agree more with the first Review of this because it uses more points from the film and clear cut evidence to explain why they didn't like it as opposed to the second one who just seemed to not like it without clear points.

Things I would include about this Film if i were reviewing it is that it really only appeals to certain people. The people who really like this movie love it but those who don't probably hate it and think it is extremely stupid. Also a lot of people find  that the joke behind this movie gets old quickly but I disagree personally. Unlike the first Reviewer i would leave out what happens in the final scene because it's a lot more funny if you don't know it going into the  movie

  1. Interesting film choice, and nice start to this. Some really good point, but try to include some direct quotes and make the post a little more interactive with some visuals.
