Undercover Brother
Eddie Griffin stars in this movie about his efforts along with the Brotherhood to prevent The Man from trying to rid society of black influences. It's very funny. Think of it as an Austin Powers movie but with a 70's black man trying to deal with modern-day white people instead of a 60's man dealing with a 60's villain in a 90's society. Plus, there aren't any of the gross-out jokes like in Austin Powers that really would make Undercover Brother stand out from the rest of the comedies out there and be memorable. Sure, you'll be laughing at all the jokes in the theatre, but once you get out and live life, you would have forgotten all the hilarious one-liners given in the movie. I know I have. Still, it provides an hour and a half of comedic entertainment. Billy Dee Williams of Star Wars fame has an excellent cameo as a Colin Powell-esque General who is about to run for President only to start a fried chicken restaurant chain, easily the funniest two scenes in the movie. 3 stars
