Regular visitors to the blog will have read my Black Dynamite (Scott Sanders, 2009) review back in June: http://e-filmblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/black-dynamite-scott-sanders-2009.html. Since then you may have been wondering when the super-cool Blaxploitation homage would be hitting UK cinemas. Well allow me to apologise for my belated announcement because it is now thankfully on our shores, albeit with a very small release schedule. All that could be changed however, by signing the 'Bring Black Dynamite To Your Hood!' petition: http://www.blackdynamite.co.uk/demand_black_dynamite.asp.
I re-watched the film last night and while the films postmodern sexism and high concept plotting still work against it, it's a smart and sporadically funny film, lovingly created and beautifully designed. So, what are you waiting for? Sign the petition, get down to the cinema and enjoy what many are calling "the best spoof since Airplane!" Dynamite.
