- Get ready for an explosion of afros, kung-fu chops, and 70s swag because Syntell and Rekkai are diving headfirst into the hilarious blaxploitation film, Black Dynamite, for the very first time!
Join us as we witness the righteous fury of Black Dynamite (Michael Jai White) unfold after his brother's death at the hands of "The Man." We'll be cracking up at the over-the-top action, groovy soundtrack, and outrageous dialogue alongside our man Black Dynamite and his crew, including the seductive Honey Bee (Nicole Ari Parker) and the smooth-talking Cream Corn (Tommy Davidson).
But will Black Dynamite's kung-fu skills and street smarts be enough to take down the corrupt forces plaguing his community? Will the film live up to the classic blaxploitation style? We'll be dishing all our thoughts, feels, and burning questions in a spoiler-free way throughout the video. Then, at the end, we'll hold a no-holds-barred discussion to break down what truly made Black Dynamite a cinematic experience (or maybe an experience to forget!).

Have you seen Rekkai's and my Deep Dive? - czcams.com/video/j54fzJwHcaE/video.html
Thanks for this bro!
The Seventies was my time. It was a hell of a time. And the word "Brother" meant something.
The guy who rhymes is spoofing a character named "Dolemite."
You can absolutely have this kind of humor. It's just a matter of whether or not it's all in good fun. Like with Mel Brookes and Blazing Saddles.
You just have to ignore the whiney liberal white saviors. They act like they speak on behalf of ALL black folks and those who rebuke them get racial slurs thrown at them like you wouldn't believe.
“But Black Dynamite. I sell drugs in the community.”
You have correcly identified the best line among many killer lines. Good work sir. ("The militants turn, startled!" is arguably my second fave.)
@@PeterEvansPeteTakesPictures "I threw that shit before I walked into the room!" is pretty great too.
"Who dares interrupt my kung fu?!"
Black Dynamite is a comedy masterpiece. Needs more appreciation.
Yup, happy to see it getting the deserved appreciation thanks to reaction channels like this.
It is possibly the last, great parody movie made. And, with exception of Captain Kangaroo, stayed in its lane and reveled in it. No Friedberg and Seltzer pop-reference stuff here. I absolutely ADORE this movie.
lol
edit - I'm just checking replies and I don't know why I commented "lol" couple days ago - it had to be a response to a different comment but accidentally got here. I love this movie. 100% agree with @kc1john
There was a time when I watched this three times in a row. 😂🖤
Super under-rated comedy and MJW's performance was incredible.
One of my favorite jokes
"As he laid there, face down, he looked up at me"
*cuts to a kid on his back*
This is an underrated classic that seems to be having a resurgence due to reaction videos like this! I'm headed to Patreon for the full deal.
Have a ball out in those Patreon streets. We had a great time making this one.
So what you're saying is, it's
DYNOMITE! DYNOMITE!
How is underrated ? It spawned a cartoon series and comic books
It also teaches you important lessons. Like never interrupt a man when he’s doing his kung fu.
Also, donuts don't wear alligator shoes.
“I threw that shit before I walked in the room!”😂
This is one of the funniest movies ever 🔥🤣👍
The fact that outta all the lines I came here to say this same exact line must be smoking the same ish
So I play a lot of shooters and I quote that every time I throw a grenade
That little "HAHA!" before it too. xD
Oh man! I just said the same thing. Funny AF!
*Sarcastically* “I’m in charge!”. He was reading directly from the script!🤣🤣
Holy shit I just got that, I have seen this movie at least 100 times.
This is definitely one of those "you have to watch it twice" moments. It rare that people catch that joke the first time.
Sholanda : My momma said MY daddy's name was Black Dynamite.
Brickwilla : So did MY MOMMA!
Black Dynamite : Err, uhh, hush up little girls. A lot of cats have that name.
👀.... 👀.....🤨🤨🤨
😂🤣
"Euphoria shut the F**k Up, i know that was you I ain't even gotta look..." That whole thing is my favorite line in a movie of favorite lines!
You want to go back to Crenshaw Pete (R.I.P) with his hot ass coat hangers!
I’m crying 😂
- "I'm declaring war on anyone who sells drugs to the community!"
- "But Black Dynamite, I sell drugs to the community!"
The Nerdist podcast with the cast of this film is almost as much fun as the film itself.
Literally one of my fave lines up there with
“Little Richard make you go whooo!!! Make you go whoo!!!”
My favourite is the Panther who says everything in the script. 'Sarcastically, I'm in charge!' 'Start a family, show him the picture'
I experienced the Blaxploitation era firsthand. This was a fun look back.😉
We might need to pull you to the side and ask some questions. 😂
"Sarcastically, I'm in charge."
The actor in that scene is supposed to be reading his script instructions by accident. 🤣"The militants turn, startled."
First time I watched this movie, I thought that it was just some kind of smart alek expression lol.
"Yeah... shows picture!"
The militant reading his stage directions is hilarious.
Bullhorn is a reference to Dolemite, from the rhyming, to the fight scenes where it's obvious he never makes contact when throwing a punch. Look up Dolemite, cause the clips on youtube show just about all the things you are seeing in Black Dynamite, from the boom mic dropping into view, to the fight scenes where the actors throw themselves back 10 seconds before a punch is thrown.
Rudy Ray Moore was the GOAT!
This movie has so many quotable lines 😂
For years we've been saying the lines.
"Send you back to Crenshaw Pete with his hot a$$ coat hangers" makes me roll every time.
Who else wants a Crenshaw Pete movie?😂
I'm not black but I was 10 years old in 1971. I have seen quite a few Blaxploitation movies then and since then. They are of course uneven but generally I enjoy their cool "vibe." Sure maybe they exploited the very real socioeconomic problems that American inner cities were going through but I never thought I was watching a documentary. They did, through entertainment though, actually make me aware of those basic problems even though they didn't suggest too may realistic solutions. As to their low-budget quality let's all remember there were quite a few "white" drive -in movies made then as well, usually involving biker gangs and blonde babes. It was a great time for youthful low-budget cinema across the ethno-cultural board. These movies all have a charm and I have a great affection to this day for their spirit. Black Dynamite, though it is a send-up, also shows a lot of love and affection towards those movies and their times. For more send-ups please check out the Dolemite and Funkenstein sketches from MAD TV!
I first saw this at an L.A. Film Festival not long after its debut at Sundance in 2009 at the Ford Amphitheatre. The audience was bursting out in loud laughter the whole film!
That kung fu treachery will get you every time.
My sister gave me this Dvd and said watch this before you have to work. I watched the 1st 10 minutes, stopped it and called my best friend. "come to my place right now, I need someone to watch this movie with me." Took us 3 hours to finish it from pausing and laughing.
That one guy @15:02 who say "Sarcastically, I'm in charge" is reading the script directions along with his lines. The joke is that the script is telling him to say "I'm in charge" in a sarcastic voice, but he mistakenly reads the script direction as part of his spoken dialogue. He does this again later as well. That's what I love about this movie, you always discover something else each time you watch it.
Michael Jai White has that "Supersoldier Serum" build
Deadpool & Black Dynamite.
Hollywood, make it happen...
This movie is a fucking masterpiece. Not even an issue.
He made another movie The Outlaw Johnny Black in 2023. Yall should react to that one 2. It’s a blaxploitation comedy too.
So many great little tributes to Black Belt Jones and the legend Jim Kelly.
This is one of my favorite comedies 😂 Glad y’all finally watched it!
Moon Cricket?
Dayum, that's some cold azz jive turkey type sheeit.
I don't think I'll ever get over moon cricket. That's wild to me.
I am a big fan of Undercover Brother, but Imissed the original release of this film. I found it after I discovering that "They Cloned Tyrone" has a number of callbacks to this film.
I am so glad I found it.🙂
I have never heard of 'They Cloned Tyrone' but it has such an amazing title I think I have to check it out now.
This to me is a classic. I need everyone to watch this once in life.
“Euphoria stfu, I know that was you, I ain’t even gotta look. I should send your ass back to Crenshaw P”
There was a Black Dynamite cartoon with the same voice actors
Yalls reaction to this movie has me in tears just as much as the movie itself. Black Dynamite is a CLASSIC
MJW killed it! This genre needs to be resuscitated and this is a beautiful start by MJW.
One of the greatest, if not the greatest, comedy movies of all time!
They jumped that shark before the movie even started! :) One of the best damn comedies ever to come out
I’m running Thaannngs.
MVP..BOOM MIC OPERATOR
When they did that stunt double change I cried laughing 😂😂
Oh, wow!!! THANKS most definitely for this!!!! LOL!!!! I don't think I've ever seen this!!! On the list!!! (Salli Richardson always makes me think of "Gargoyles"--she was Detective Elisa Maza, the female lead!!!)
Gargles is such a classic. It’s a shame they haven’t figured out a way to re-introduce it.
Definitely check out me and Syntell's deep dive on this!
@@nupefromdaville I tried but it's not ready yet! I'll check it out later today!
😂Very very Hilarious Movie. And Y'alls Reactions made me laugh harder.😅😂. Great Reactions Y'all👍🏾💯👍🏾
I’ve seen you guys laugh hard, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard y’all giggle uncontrollably like some jive ass 🦃 🦃 🇹🇷. 😃
This might be my favorite reaction. The laughter is contagious.
Blaxploitation spoofs at its finest is the Wayans Brothers with "I'm Gonna Get You Sucka". This movie is legit hilarious but lacks some of the emotional hooks of the old school spoof.
Dude said "You got an 8-Track in every room"😂😂
If you haven't seen it, the 1975 movie "Dolomite" by Rudy Ray Moore, was probably the main inspiration for this movie. It was made on a shoe string budget, Rudy basically used his limited martial arts skills and pretty much wrote it as he filmed.
They even made a "biopic" called "Dolomite is my name" starting Eddie Murphy, that isn't too bad.
Oh and while not in the same vain, Quentin Tarantino's "Jackie Brown" staring Pam Grier, is great too.
"AH HA!! I THREW THAT SH** BEFORE I ENTERED THE ROOM!!"
'Did he kick them off and they boomeranged back?'
🤣🤣🤣
That gag had me laughing so hard I missed the next few minutes and had to go back.
When it comes back around 😉 with Fiendish Dr Wu's boomerang knife and "Ha ha! I threw that 💩 before I walked in the room!!!" I had the same reaction 🤣🤣🤣
Captain Kangaroo pimp in the house.... 😂🤘
The Black Dynamite cartoon was just as funny. Don't know if you guys would react to that as well but it's worth checking out.
Captain Kangaroo Pimp is my favorite thing in this.
Also, kicking the door 🚪down on Grandma, no, not Nanna he'll no 😂 that was hilarious
"As he laid there, flat on his face, he looked up at me."
"I threw that sh*t before I even came in the room!!"
12:46 man my mom (R.I.P.) laughed so hard at that part she had tears rolling down her face. I had to pause the movie for a couple minutes for her to gather herself. Just the fact that they replaced the stuntman was freaking hilarious!!
i love how everyone {even his mama} call him Dynamite or Black Dynamite..one of my 10 favorite comedy films
Saw this fresh in 2009 and have been watching regularly ever since. This movie will never get enough shine imo.
15:00 i love that he reads the whole cue card: (sarcastically) "I'm in charge." 25:23 (shows picture) he dont understand parentheses 😂
The single most quotable comedy since Lebowski. Criminally overlooked.
There have been a few decent homages to blaxploitation cinema. Comedies such as I'm Gonna Git You Sucka and Undercover Brother are among the best, but Black Dynamite is the platinum standard , not just a parody of the plot clichés, but also the low budget production values such as visible boom microphones and poor editing. By far, this was the best reaction to this movie that I've seen so far. Your knowledge of the various actors appearing throughout the movie shows that you two are definitely students of cinema and have enormous respect for the craft.
Roscoe in the background
THATS IT
Everything he says rhymes- like Roadblock the GiJoe. This movie RULES! Everything is my favorite part 😎
@27:58 when the fiendish, Dr. Wu, had a 🥷🏾 moment 😂
This movie absolutely RULES.
This was a JOY to watch this with you and ya pal. It was like I was watching it my cousins. Thank you
One of the best comedy movies in the entire medium. Both genius, and completely fucking unhinged.
This is an absolute Cult Classic!
Great cast, score/soundtrack, satire, camera work, tons of quotable lines.
( Suggestion: Make it a double-header with "Hobo With a Shotgun". )
Great reaction, brothers. Glad to see y’all got around to this absolute masterpiece of a film. I also appreciated your take and a bit of the history lesson for those that don’t know about the blaxploitation genre.
So cool you did this reaction…one of my favorite “Oh I will definitely watch if it happens to be on” movies…a true comedy classic
My favorite movie of Michael Jay White, his "magnum opus" if you will!
Your laughters killed me. This such a great parody movie that nails it subject.
P.S. I think you *should* do a weekly Blaxploitation/Karate Movie Day (for Saturday afternoons--when else? :)) but you should mix it up with the docudramas--"Dragon," "Baadasss," "Dolomite is My Name" with Eddie Murphy, etc.. so you can explain the whole era. (Would you risk doing "Spook/Door" or "Five/Blackhand Side?" Hmmm.) If you go the edutainment route one day a week, don't go halfway! Right or not at all, baby! LOL!!!
I love everyting about this idea.
I absolutely love this idea!
I'm SO down with this I ain't even playing.
DO IT!
27:08 The Fiendish Dr Wu's got style because he's portrayed by Roger Yuan.
Dude's a legendary actor/stuntman..
This is top 10 comedies ever! super smart on many levels
But Black Dyanamite, I make money by selling drugs to the community!
I laughed so hard I gave myself an asthma attack. It was worth it.
Fun fact: the guy with the toothpick repeating the script was Toothpick from Dont be a Menace.
"Cause Hell's a COMIN, COMIN, COMIN!"
I'm not even going to try that drinking game with this movie!
My bottle is too full and my liver is too weak.
Throw that shit before I walked in the room 😂😂😂
This movie is in my top 5 favorite comedies of all time. The jokes are so self aware and is perfect in how over the top it is. Great reaction to a modern classic.
I’m so glad people are beginning to appreciate this movie as much as it deserves. Favorite comedy by far
7:03 If someone lays "flat on their face," how can they look up at you?
What makes Black Dynamite both hilarious and depressing is that you get the feeling that Michael Jai White could only have come up with all of this stuff based on things he'd actually seen happen on movie sets. 😂The boom mic accidentally being lowered into frame; the actor accidentally reading his stage directions like they were dialogue; the stuntman being replaced after the actor hit him; etc. 🤣
"Because donuts don't wear alligator shoes!"
You guys are great! keep it up.
Ha Ha! I threw that shit before I walked in the room! One of my favorites from this movie.
I didn't want to watch this movie cause I thought it looked dumb but this movie is actually brilliant.
The amount of quotes me and my friends had from this movie when it came out maaan 🤣
This film is 500% high-larious !
W/o selling to the local kids and community.
They through that s#!+ before they walked in the room!
An all time classic! The animated show is also great.
Michael Jai White is our new age, Jim Kelly. 😉
Pretty much.
Yo this is dope!!! Please watch Pooty Tang next😭😭😭😭
Now that's a great suggestion.
Omg please do Pootie Tang
👌🏾👌🏾🫶🏾😭🥹🥹 I’ll be waiting on that notification Gov’nor
I watched the TV Animated series, but didn't know they'd made a live action movie! I saw your vid was up so I had to watch this movie TODAY, and then I rewatched your take on it, it was SO GOOD!! OMG, 🤣🤣🤣 For the most part they stuck to the cartoon roots. Bullhorn, Cream Corn, Honey Bee, all of the actors are the same or sound the same exactly as the cartoon (I didn't look it up, but I'm pretty sure). Stand out moments for me: Switching actors mid-fight when Bullhorn slapped the actor and things got real, that had me crying over here! Shaking the Orphan till his eyes pop out. Having parents and a brother, then he was an orphan and nobody bats an eye, or people calling him Black Dynamite as a child. Beating the Kung-Fu guy with his own hand. The funniest thing of all though for me was the animated astrological sex scene. I lost it, I laughed so So hard!
I've seen a lot of movies like this, but I think this one takes the cake, I needed a good laugh today and this did the trick, OMG!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
You know if you're looking for a silly like this Martial Arts movie, you should check out Kung Pow: Enter The Fist! That's a GREAT movie I loved and have the DVD for.
I will check out Rekkai's channel as usual, but a lil bit later after I get some other stuff done. Maybe during work tomorrow on my other account.
My deep dive with Syntell is so long, it is still uploading. Killing me smalls! The live action movie came out first and then they did the animated which I have never seen.
I think this was before the cartoon.
@@nupefromdaville longest vid I ever put on my channel that wasn't a live stream here was like 40 min and it took awhile but YT is funny. I had shorter vids take longer cause I would not publish them until they were HD processed. I used to have a schedule and everything and YT messed it up sometimes with upload times. In short, I feel ya, and it sucks sometimes.
And no, I didn't know the movie came first (obvi) but I do now, and that makes more sense, sort of. 2 characters are back from the dead for the show I guess. 🤣
The movie was made before the animated series.
If you missed it while laughing at "I will shake this poisonous 💩 out of your little smacked up body!" Sally Richardson interrupts with "Stop it Black Dynamite! We've tried that!" 🤣🤣🤣
The delivery of her lines is so funny.
you guys would love the animated version
Loved this! 😂😂😂
Ah, they were just brainstorming to come up with the answers behind Anaconda Malt Liquor. That scene is a bit CEREBRAL. But the main takeaway is Rosco’s chix & waffles was invented.
DYNAMITE! DYNAMITE!😂
Rekkai sounds like Eric Mays 😂😂😂😂
You gotta check the soundtrack. They recorded the entire thing with equipment from the era.
This is one of the best comedies, and can never recommend it enough. It catches the entire feel of exploitation/grindhouse films from the period, with all the purposeful errors set in place to give that experience. As for Michael Jai White, he is underrated and should be in more features, and not relegated to "straight to video". I'd also recommend Outlaw Johnny Black. It's not on par with this film, but created by some of the key people from Black Dynamite.
I love this movie.. watched it countless times
I feel like black cinema storytelling changes within every twenty years or so. The seventies had blaxploitation, the nineties had hood movies, and the 2010s saw a rise of what people call slave movies. For me, I would love to see afrofuturism take off as the next new thing. It's taken off in books, and since 99% of Hollywood stories are based off of novels I think it's only a matter of time before we get that genre.
