Review: I'm Gonna Git You Sucka (1988)

Directed by Keenan Ivory Wayans
Review Copyright © 2001 Aaron M. Renn

Conclusion: Worth Watching - Moderately funny gags but not spectacular

Keenan Ivory Wayan's parody of blaxploitation, the film has the feel of an overly long In Living Color skit rather than a true feature film. The gags were amusing at time, but fairly predictable as well. I spent a decent amount of time laughing, but didn't really feel I'm Gonna Git You Sucka was in the big leagues, especially in light of the big name cast. More was expected. What I got was tasty but not filling. It was basically a black version of Airplane or the Naked Gun, and has the same strengths and weaknesses of those other films.
