Plot: Pootie Tang pushes blaxploitation to the point of surrealism. The title character--who first appeared on The Chris Rock Show--speaks a kind of slang on steroids, an incomprehensible stre...( read more read more... )am of nonsense syllables that nonetheless makes him irresistible to women and a threat to evildoers everywhere. Pootie is part movie star, part superhero, righting wrongs with the slap of his daddy's belt. But when an evil corporation uses a super-ho named Ireenie (Jennifer Coolidge from Best in Show and Legally Blonde) to steal this magic belt, Pootie must find himself again. In the title role, Lance Crouther glides through the movie like Isaac Hayes's skinny younger brother, while Chris Rock lends his trademark bark to multiple roles, including Pootie's father. Crazed editing and a great soundtrack give Pootie Tang a little extra oomph. A bizarre comedy, likely to develop a cult following. Cameos by Missy Elliot and Bob Costas. --Bret Fetzer

    All copies of this movie should be burned and, any public showing of this flicks should be seen as an attack on our way of life.

    Cult favorite of comedy geeks. Louis CK disowned it when my brother and I met him after he did a show at CMU. We all secretly love it. Chris Rock is awesome in it

    Pootie Tang (Lance Crouther) is the coolest guy on the face of the earth, he is just 'too cool for words' and uses his own made up words like 'sa da tay' and 'kapa-chow' but somehow everyone always know what he means. He is a singer, a actor, a crime fighter and a role model for all kids, until one day evil corporation owner Dick Lecter (Robert Vaughn) gets his hands on Pootie Tangs crime fighting belt and Pootie Tang goes into a deep depression. Will he be able to stop the bad guys without his belt? Just from hearing the plot, you know this is a movie that doesn't take itself seriously. It's over the top silly, but I found it pretty damn funny and entertaining. So if you like the comedy style of Chris Rock, don't sit this one out, but it's really not a movie anyone will enjoy.
