Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great, Hilarious, Dillie On, My Damie
Review: The funniest movie I have seen in a long time. I thought it was a sex movie from the title, but it is coolest movie I have seen in a long time. Like Pootie says, I'm gonna sign your pitty on the runny kine. Wa Da Tah. Love it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The dumbest movie in the history of cinema!
Review: I can't even think of words to describe how stupid this movie is. It's movies like this one that make me wish this rating system had negative stars, like minus five stars...or minus ten stars.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: hmmm... i'd say abstract art
Review: Pootie Tang is definitely art but I'd say abstract art rather than modern.

What makes this movie so funny is the weird, abstract, completely over the top humour. The mise-en-scène and framing is some of the worst stuff I've ever seen but you'll be laughing to hard to care.

The first review summed the movie up well so i'll cut it off here.

Two other similar movies you should seek out if you enjoyed Pootie are "Fear of a Black Hat" and "Undercover Brother".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Strange but very very funny.
Review: Chris Rock related films have proven to be little short of terrible. Does anyone remember Down To Earth or Bad Company?

Pootie Tang also died a quick death at the box office. But unlike the two previous examples it's a very smart and very funny film. Definite cult movie material.

Perhaps your enjoyment of this film will be determined by whether or not you "get " many of it's cinematic and socio-political references.
For Pootie Tang is far more than a mere Blaxpliotation spoof.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: So Stupidy Yous Have To Laugh
Review: Between Chris Rock as Corn and sep-a-tah this movie is the stupiddest movie that is so stupid you have to laugh. Wanda Sykes is hilarious and so are the other people.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Sep-a-tah
Review: Pootie's "cool" language was the one thing that made me kind of drawn to this movie. Originally my friend begged me to watch it with her. I usually never watch so-called stupid movies, but I gave it a chance. The names and characters in this movie were so hilarious, for instance "Biggie Shorty" and her line (which was my favorite in the movie) "Just because I am dancing on a street corner, next to a bunch of hookers, wearing fishnet, don't mean I'm hookin!" At first glance you will probably think this is a stupid movie, but then once it gets going you have a few good chuckles. I have to say that Chris Rock is an excellent creative comic, and all of his movies have great humor, that you just have to appreciate. I do recommend this movie to almost anybody, unless you are way to serious to see the dumb side of life on occasions.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Comedic Genius, Pure Comedic Genius
Review: Pootie Tang is like modern art. You either get it, or you don't. People have different senses of humor, and this movie will expose that like none other. I laughed until it hurt, my best friend didn't crack a smile. The movie centers around Pootie himself, a crimefighter who uses a belt to whip his opponents into submission. He also doesn't speak English, but this hilarious pseudo-ebonics language. Pootie is dedicated to helping the children, who I believe he calls the "Tippie Tai." Now, before you make up your mind about this movie, I will give a brief test. Read the following list of characters: Pootie Tang, Dirty Dee, Trucky, Bad Bitty, Biggie Shorty, and Froggy. If you didn't find these names humorous, this movie probably isn't for you. The humor centers around nonsense. Words, names, and events that make so little sense, that they are hilarious. Example: Pootie's father is mauled by a gorilla at a factory. That's funny stuff, but not to everyone. If you're looking for subtle humor, search elsewhere. But if you're looking for a movie with an off-the-wall brand of humor, buy Pootie Tang. I will admit however, that towards the end of the movie all of the nonsense words lost their humor value slightly. That is the only thing that prevented this movie from getting 5 Stars. Sa Da Te!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: 10 minutes of genius and 75 minutes of (crud)
Review: this film falls under the category of "tons of potential but the finished product is severely lacking". the writing shows glimpses of brilliance but the majority of the humour is anything but funny and the cinematography in this film is abominable. i've never seen worse shot composition in a feature length film. if you can look past what's bad about 'pootie tang' you'll enjoy it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: So stupid, its funny. On thats I gots to say the na-no!
Review: I watched this movie because there was nothing else on. I didn't pay attention to it until there was only about 15 minutes left. I then felt compelled to laugh. And laugh I did, for the final 15 minutes anyway. I then decided to watch again from the start, and give it another chance. And it was so ridiculously stupid, that it became funny. I had to laugh, I couldn't stop myself.

I will admit that the narrative voice (and Chris Rock) got on my nerves somewhat. And the character of Biggy-Shorty could have jumped off a cliff for all I care, but its not that long of a movie that I couldn't sit through it. The whole belt thing, and the scenes with Bob Costas made me laugh the hardest.

Cappa chow, Wappatah to the Bammies.

Rating: 4 stars
