June 22, 2014Long before 'Black Dynamite' spoofed the blaxploitation genre, Keenan Ivory Wayans had his shot at it with 'I'm Gonna Git You Sucka'. Both movies are awesome. The cast alone (including Bernie Casey, Isaac Hayes, and Jim Brown, not to mention some of the greatest cameos ever by Chris Rock, David Alan Grier, and the amazing Clarence Williams III) makes 'I'm Gonna Git You Sucka' worth seeing. Wayans stars as a young man on leave from the Army who comes home after the death of his brother, Junebug (he died from an overdose of gold chains), and finds the streets he grew up on are no longer safe. He forms a gang of aging heroes and makes a plan to clean the place up and get revenge against the criminals who killed his brother. This movie is so much fun. If you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and check it out. Chris Rock's short cameo steals the show (I had to re-watch it several times because I was laughing so hard).
