Film 290/365, Day 321/365 – Black Dynamite

Funky, smooth, righteous and very, very, very funny.  Black Dynamite is a fantastic parody of blaxploitation films from the 1970s with an ingenious mix of kung fu, intentional filming gaffs and some cool cats.  Can you dig it?

Synopsis:  When Black Dynamite’s only brother is killed by a drug dealer he declares war on drugs and is determined to smack down anybody involved.  Little does he know just how far the his war will take him.

Film 208/365, Day 223/365 – Coming to America

Let me talk you on a journey, a journey back in time, back when Eddie Murphy was funny!  This is definitely one of Eddie Murphy’s best films, admittedly it’s not as good as Trading Places and Beverly Hills Cop but it is in the next group of films.  There are lots of funny gags and rather amusing hairdos and clothing styles from the ‘80s (but that wasn’t intentional at the time but is still funny).

Synopsis:  An African prince goes to America to find the woman of his dreams, but whilst there he decides to hide his heritage and try to find a woman that will love him for him and not his wealth.
