I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

An absolute waste of money

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Keenan Ivory Wayans should hold his head up high and be proud for writing and directing and starring in A Low Down Dirty Shame. He shouldn't feel dirty at all. I feel dirty with all these closeup shots of Jada's and Salli's juicy backsides. I'm not complaining. I'm doing the opposite. Jada is dead-seriously gorgeous. I love the way she's acting all ghetto. I wish Jada would just be like that in real life. I would find it appealing, and I would probably love her more than I already do now. That's all a fantasy. Jada is so underrated. She is so good. She is so very sexy. Salli Richardson too. Keenan is the sexiest Wayans brother. Him or Marlon. Or Shawn. Or Damon. I didn't think about Will Smith once.

I wrote about this movie lately. Then I discovered a review I wrote about the same movie 10 years ago. Here's the 2.Emetic ! ---------It is, and for generations and generations to come. I don't know how the 1994's Razzie of the worst picture went to (Color of Night) ?! In comparison with (A Low Down..), (Color of Night) is a classic masterpiece !! It's violent comic action without any comedy or action. And its only violence is in its mammoth silliness of each and every factor in it; the cast, the way they act, the dialog, the characters, the situations...etc. (Keenen Ivory Wayans) isn't remotely funny at all; his comic scenes seemed horrible. He didn't impress anybody in his action scenes too. (Keenen Ivory Wayans)'s plot got nothing to be remembered after watching (or during watching !). And (Keenen Ivory Wayans)'s directing wasn't less low ! Did I forget to tell you that Mr. Wayans starred, wrote, and directed the whole thing ? It isn't related to the fact that he's a cinematic genius or something, it's maybe because no decent moviemaker could bear working with him !I'm a fan of (Charles S. Dutton), however I hated seeing him in here. (Jada Pinkett Smith) was incredibly unsightly and stupidly annoying. True that (Salli Richardson-Whitfield) was kind of sexy, but not preferentially, or for long, or in a way that could compensate for the endless ugly matters which this movie is crowded with ! The climax of its torturing crap is the lead's too gay sidekick "Wayman" (or women ?!). He can't do anything, even making laughs as he's supposed to. The only thing that he succeeded in is forcing you to throw up continually. The black try of making fun of black stereotypes wasn't filthier before !It's one naked movie, which has nothing – and I mean NOTHING – entertaining or else to present. Definitely the worst Blaxploitation movie is more interesting and memorable than this. However (A Low Down Dirty Shame) is a movie that my stomach won't forget. Works like this invented "The worst 10 movies list" !It is a "dirty shame" only !Written in 20/4/2010===========================================Flood of Filthiness !----------------------This is Dirty Harry meets a dirty rap song. It goes like this : a black lead between Shaft and Martin Lawrence + logicless plot + the filthiest language ever recorded on film + countless rap songs for more than what any endurance could stand = mean outcome that's too paltry to remember.Man. Did I hate it? Well, it makes itself impossible to love. I hated the scene of seeing the great lead preparing to fight, wearing the best of what he has of clothes and weapons; I have seen this moment for at least 1000 times before!! I hated (Jada Pinkett Smith) as the secretary. I may go to hell if I ever put "beautiful" and her name in one sentence anytime! The way she looks and talks is extremely sickening. What epithet she deserves the most ? The most detestable cartoon character, the silliest girl ever been in an action, or the ugliest thing I have ever seen !Having no sense of humor was better than having the worst kind; as this movie does. From totally unfunny scenes for (Wayans), to such a contumely to the 1960s star (James Brown) as if only dogs that listen to his songs now, ending up with the hellish dialog. Most of the time I felt my ears getting flayed. Just recall : the numerous "a**", "pe**s", "f***ing" terminologies. I believe this movie is a fine reference book for all the squalid phrases that use these words (the tabloid speaks about decreasing the size of a**es, shoot my a**, don't make me spank your black a**, promise me to burn his a**...) Ahh, there is no end and nothing else. It assures not only that (Wayans) knows nothing about writing comedy but by using these terms, he rather knows nothing from the English language but them too! Let alone the free pure filth: The conversation about the beauty of a crippled girl's butt, or the joy of making love with the crippled girls in general (!!!!!). Or the awful story of (Jada Pinkett Smith) about her dog that shits a lot. Things like these, and I'm not sorry to say it, made the movie as a huge pile of excrement itself !But still, to add more vomit, here you are; the lead's sissy sidekick "Wayman". 3 scenes, just 3, got this thing in it. Nevertheless the repugnant effect of it can't be forgotten. What alien from outer space, or a demon from inferno, can actually bear this "Wayman" for a second ?? He's, without a doubt, the dirtiest of whatever this movie has !In Egypt, its commercial title as a video stood for (The Professional and The Beauties), while I saw no Professional, Beauties, or a "Beauty" of any kind !Written in 3/10/2000===========================================Not much of a difference, huh ?!

There are some films that you can't decide whether the film is good or bad. On whether the film is worth the watch or you're better off doing some other more meaningful things. This film is one of it.As I said, you might like it, you might not.The acting a little bit over the top, but I think that's what the producer intended to do. The jokes may at times be quite crude, but maybe it's exactly the way it was suppose to be.Worth a mention here is Jada Pinkett acting. She's quite good ! And I like her hairstyle too. Not that it has any bearing of the quality of acting though, just wanted to let you guys know.Over all, the film is nice to watch, if you don't take it seriously.

This could probably have been an OK action-comedy, had it been done right. Unfortunately, the whole movie is done completely by formula; the comic sidekick, the traitorous agent, the villain who doesn't have a single likable quality. Why is it that every single bad guy in 90's action-thrillers have to be a drug-lord? Seriously, it's getting old. Furthermore, all the 'comedy' consists of racial and sexual stereotypes. Have the Wayans' brothers actually made something that was good? I've never seen anything worthwhile from them. The plot is a simple rehash of hundreds of other action movies. The acting is mediocre, at best. The characters are mostly one-dimensional. The action is OK, but nothing you haven't already seen in hundreds of action movies before this one. I feel sorry for Jada Pinkett, having to play such a stereotypical character; she deserves better. Nearly any actor/actress does. I'd only recommend this to actual fans of the Wayans' brothers, as most others will just cringe at the utter lack of originality. 5/10
