"Black Dynamite gets the details right, but so what? The result is like watching rightly vilified movies such as Epic Movie, Date Movie, or Meet The Spartans, but without as many scenes of characters being kicked in the balls."  Examiner.com  Adam Lippe

B+
"A feisty, gleefully harebrained spoof of all things Shaft and Superfly, Dynamite is a jubilant ode to the firm cinematic pimp hand, which, in this picture, smacks bad guys around and tickles the audience with the same devotion."  BrianOrndorf.com  Brian Orndorf

A-
"This may be the all-time best party film next to "Animal House." If this movie doesn't make you laugh, call a doctor."  ColeSmithey.com  Cole Smithey

A-
"This is one of the cleverest, most consistently funny spoof movies since Airplane!"  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

3/5
"As the theme song declares, this cat is dy-no-mite!"  Time Out New York  Keith Uhlich

2/4
"Generally humorless and pointless, devoid as the film is of any commentary on the genre to which it's paying loving tribute."  Slant Magazine  Nick Schager

7/10
"Black Dynamite is back and The Man better look out or die laughing."  Monsters and Critics  Ron Wilkinson

4/5
"Director Scott Sanders and his co-writers Michael Jai White and Byron Minns unrelentingly lampoon all manner of ghetto life clichés and cultural sacred cows."  JWR  S. James Wegg

4/5
"One of those eminently quotable comedies that frat guys and movie geeks will come back to time and again."  Cinematical  Scott Weinberg
