Anyway, Black Dynamite is one of the most surprising movies if have ever encountered simply because I heard nothing about it until I walked into a video rental store and saw an add for it, forgot about it until about a week ago, finally watched, and was blown away by how little attention this totally awesome movie got. Basically, Black Dynamite is a satire of the classic Blacksploitation movies of the 1970s like Shaft and what not. What we have here is a movie that is completely self aware of it's "satirical-ness" and goes for it. There is plenty of low level humor in the movie, but just enough of it is super smart "blink and you'll miss it" moments that make what could've been a really stupid movie into an underground hit.
Oh and the mustache kicks ass
