![]() Michael Jai White plays Black Dynamite, a black private eye looking to avenge the death of his brother. The basic premise of 'Black Dynamite' is to combine every major Blaxploitation movie ('Dolemite,' 'Shaft,' 'Sweet Sweetback's Bad Assssss Song' etc.) into one knowing package. ![]() ![]() This, to me, is emblematic of the film's problem as a whole: when it's "on," it's smart, snappy, knowing, and laugh-out-loud hilarious, but really, it should have just been a short film. The first time I checked my watch during 'Black Dynamite' was at exactly the 30 minute mark.
