Hilarious film, on a par with the original
4 July 2022
This is the sequel to Dolemite, one of the all-time craziest blaxploitation movies ever made. In this one Rudy Ray Moore returns as Dolemite (aka The Human Tornado) and this time he has to battle a racist sheriff and the Mafia. If you were concerned that the follow-up to such a legendary one-off movie must surely pale by comparison, then don't worry as this one is probably equally as funny as the first. It does seem to be better made and although that can fairly be considered a relative statement, this one at least doesn't feature a boom mic popping down on every second scene. Whatever the case, Moore is an absolute riot in the central role again. He doesn't have quite as many sweary proto-rap routines this time around but his karate moves will have you in stitches (it certainly seemed to be amusing the other actors who didn't seem to be trying too hard to hide their giggles). There are plenty of REALLY silly moments in this one to enjoy and its basically pure entertainment from start to finish.
