| Any movie which makes me take notice of the language is an eye opener to start with. When it involves a very large jiving man who commands an army of hookers trained in martial arts I get excited. Hence we have this piece of work. Dolemite was set up by Mitchell and White (Who take their orders from the Mayor, who has a business relationship with Willie Green.) on drug and theft charges. When the prison warden notices crime is still skyrocketing he makes Dolemite a deal, clean up the streets and you're a free man. ("Hey boss, we imprisoned this guy, but the crime rate is going up. Obviously he wasn't the problem, guess we should let him out...") What follows is chaos, crazy fight scenes, gratuitous sex, and some amazingly funny dialog. One of the first things accomplished is getting Dolemite's nightclub back from Willie Green, which is neatly taken care of by a secret compartment full of cash under the floor. (Queen Bee had to give up the club for borrowing money.) Willie is not very happy with losing his cash cow, when he shows up with a small army of henchmen to shut the club down all heck breaks loose. I love the martial arts touch, nobody just throws punches, have you ever seen a girl wearing polyester bell bottoms use Ti Kwan Leep on someone? Good stuff, I assure you. On top of all this you have our title character's wardrobe, any man confident enough to wear those has to be tough. |

| Things I Learned From This Movie: | |
|
- The FBI does not require search warrants.
- Never ask some girl, who is holding a switchblade, to help you.
- Hookers are prone to mood swings.
- Poetic street dissertations are a valid form of ID.
- Bad edits really can ruin a sex scene.
- Hookers are all blackbelts.
- Compound interest sucks.
- I really don't need to see some fat guy naked, especially from the rear.
- It takes less than ten seconds to strangle someone.
- Shooting with two pistols is much easier if you are bowlegged.

Hmmm...RUdy Ray Moore is a real jackass. Cool movie though. Your rat soup eatin' honkey motherf**ker!!! I give it 3.5/5. The sequel The Human Tornado is even better.

I've been quoting this movie for weeks now, and I can't get the "Dolemite" theme or that song "Time on the Side" out of my head, you rat soup-eating, jock-jawed, mutha f@$#%s! By all means, if you are on this site, and love bad (and bad-ass) movies, you've got to get "Dolemite!"

Dolemite isn't a good movie. Dolemite is the biggest waste of time. The fights blow, his one-liners are HORRIBLE. There is no action until the last 10 minutes of the movie. Dolemite ain't s**t. Shaft is good, but Dolemite has 0% action, 0% comedy & 100% boredom. You will feel like an a***ole for buying or renting this piece of s**t.

Dolemite is probably the weakest of Rudy Ray Moore's four feature films (but still a masterpiece, in a wierd way). I must recommend "The Avenging Disco Godfather" above all for its portrayal of what it's like to be on PCP (Wack), and "Petey Wheatstraw, the Devil's Son-in-Law" has without doubt the most well-developed plot of any RRM movie. FYI I own a copy of "Dolemite II, the Human Tornado" and I do NOT recommend it as a date movie, ever. Unless she really like Malt Liquor, in which case all bets are off.
Best enjoyed with a 40 of St. Ides. Or two.

My friends and I found out about this movie through this site, and decided to check it out. After just one showing, we were hooked. Rudy Ray Moore is the greatest pimp daddy of them all. Forget Willie Greene..DOLEMITE is the baddest muthafu**a the world has ever seen! We now walk around campus randomly shouting out lines from the movies. This movie is, without a doubt, one of the greatest B-movies of all time. And if you don't agree with me, then they gonna have to remove these hush puppies out yo muthafu**in a$$!!
