Movie Reviews of Pootie Tang
Movie Review: One of my favorite comedy movies.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a movie that you really have to understand to enjoy. It employs a distinct style of humor that I find funny. The way that Pootie beats up people (like Dirty D and Bad Biddy) with his piggly wiggly belt, is absolutely hilarious. This is really one of those movies that some people will hate and others will love. I thought that that it had a unique story with fascinating characters. If you like movies like "How High", "Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle", "Next Friday", and "The Pest," then I think you will like this movie as well. It really has a cartoon-esque feel to it that I definitely enjoyed. I have watched this movie at least 10 times and I am still not sick of it.
Summary of Pootie Tang
Pootie Tang pushes blaxploitation to the point of surrealism. The title character--who first appeared on The Chris Rock Show--speaks a kind of slang on steroids, an incomprehensible stream of nonsense syllables that nonetheless makes him irresistible to women and a threat to evildoers everywhere. Pootie is part movie star, part superhero, righting wrongs with the slap of his daddy's belt. But when an evil corporation uses a super-ho named Ireenie (Jennifer Coolidge from Best in Show and Legally Blonde) to steal this magic belt, Pootie must find himself again. In the title role, Lance Crouther glides through the movie like Isaac Hayes's skinny younger brother, while Chris Rock lends his trademark bark to multiple roles, including Pootie's father. Crazed editing and a great soundtrack give Pootie Tang a little extra oomph. A bizarre comedy, likely to develop a cult following. Cameos by Missy Elliot and Bob Costas. --Bret FetzerComedy DVD Video
