Dolemite Is My Name

calum shared a tip "A great movie about a great movie and the charismatic man at its core. Lovingly written and acted, the tale of the creation of a no-budget classic."

despondent_hull shared a tip "I went in to this expecting a ratchet explotation film starring Eddie Murphy. I came out having experienced a solid exhibition about a Black exploitation movie director. The former would have been a distasteful waste of time (Coming to America 2); but, the latter was a pleasant surprise."

zach_gallegos shared a tip "One of my favorite films of 2019, the life that Murphy brings to the film with the rest of the cast is such a breath of fresh air. I couldn’t recommend this feel good movie enough."

mttldocrew shared a tip "Academy award-winning performance by Eddie Murphy. Although at times raw, it's very funny and it's a truthful rendition of the real character, who inspired many comedians and rappers. Highly recommend it."

gerald_caraway shared a tip "Surprisingly touching movie about a movie producer/pioneer. Eddie Murphy shows the vulnetable side of a comedy legend intent on greatness."

tray_3660 shared a tip "Interesting comedy about how Dolemite originated. His movies were ridiculous. But I guess they were funny at the time. Eddie Murphy and Wesley Snipes were great, as well as the other actors."
