I'm gonna git you sucka is a very funny comedy, that perfectly balances satire, action, and slapstick humor. It pokes fun at a classic action mystery and executes a story very well. It is very enjoyable and contains a good soundtrack as well. I highly reccomend anyone interested or considering to watch this film to do so, as it will have you laughing and smiling in enjoyment.

Just watched this movie on free broadcast TV. Not familiar with the genre, but realized it was a spoof on black American culture. I actually dislike most comedies, but this one made me laugh...a lot!!! Loved the legless whore scene and the flamboyant pimp on spiked aquarium shoes. Loved the little white boy who wrote a report on Abe Lincoln, referring to him and his assassin as a pieces of poor white trash. Everyone did an amazing job in pulling off all the gags. One scene that fell flat was the bar scene where the momma did a couple of back flips and then beat the dickens out of a couple of bumbling black thugs. You could clearly see her stunt double was not her.

Though I realize that this movie may not be for everyone, it is a classic to those grew up in this generation. The Wayon's are at their best, doing what they do. People like Chris Rock are getting their starts in this movie. When, Army Boy, Jack Spade (played by Keenan Ivory Wayans) comes home to the Bronx, where his momma has kept his room the way it was the day he left, he has no idea that he is about to be swept into a crime triangle to try and stop Mr. Big, the new crime boss of the area, who is responsible for the death of his brother June Bug Spade. June Bug died of a horrible OG (aka Over Gold), selling everything he had and selling his soul to contract more and more gold jewelry! The movie just gets crazier and crazier...funnier and funnier as it goes on. He falls in love with his brothers widowed wife, enlists Jack Slade and Fly Guy (Former Pimp of the Year) to team up in an effort to over throw Mr. Big. Jack even gets his his own theme song by none other than KRS-1, one of hip hop's greatest rappers of the time. Give the movie 30 minutes and you will be hysterical. If you like Coming to America, you will definitely like this film.

"I'm Gonna Git You, Sucka" is Keenen Ivory Wayans's salute to that film era of the 70's known as Blaxploitation, in which many films had leads that were African-American. Some of these films today are laughable at best, which makes Wayans's film all the more funny.Wayans plays Jack Spade, a "soldier boy" who returns home after his brother dies due to OG ("Over Gold," his body covered from head to foot in gold chains, rings, etc.). His mother (Ja'net DuBois)and Cheryl, his brother's widow (Dawnn Lewis)are being threatened by Mr. Big, the crime boss (Richard Vernon). Realizing that he can't fight his battle alone (Even though his mother is tough enough to help him), Jack recruits John Slade (Bernie Casey),Hammer (Issac Hayes),Slammer (Jim Brown) and Kung Fu Joe (Steve James) to bring down Mr. Big once and for all.This film is in the vein of "Airplane!" and "The Naked Gun" films. There are a lot of visual jokes (At the police station, there is a "10 Most Ugly" poster), and a lot of inside jokes (When asked about who the identity of the incredibly bad singer, they're told that she's "The Director's sister.").Favorite scenes: 1) The Rib Joint Customer: A customer is so cheap that he wants to by a single rib and have a sip of soda ("Pour it in my hand for a dime," he says). It's a delight to watch a young Chris Rock in one of his earlier roles.2) Spade and Cherry: Cherry looks like a sure thing, and very sexy to boot. However, Cherry is far from perfect.3) Flyguy: When Flyguy (Antonio Fargas)gets out of jail, he is wearing the clothes he came in with. Too bad they are bright yellow/zebra striped with platform shoes that contain fish.A good film to watch.
