a5c7b9f00b Anton Jackson is an African-American man who seems harmless enough on the surface, but is a secret agent in the all-black Brotherhood, an entity that levels the playing field against the all-white establishment. Partnered with the sassy, stunning Sistah Girl, our hero must first undergo the ultimate attitude adjustment and trade in his 'fro and platforms for tennis sweaters and penny loafers. Once the transformation is complete, he's ready to take on the evil perpetrators of Operation Whitewash–Mr Feather, Penelope Snow aka White She Devil, and, ultimately, The Man. A white faceless corporate despot known only as "The Man", has the power to unleash a terrifying top-secret weapon: an irresistibly packaged psycho-hallucinogenic drug that will reduce the entire population to mindless zombies. but black folks have soul. But with enough funky sense of style, a smooth way with the ladies and an absolute hunger for justice, with his Bruce Lee moves, Cadillac attitude and an arsenal of outrageous disguises and gadgets, Undercover Brother is recruited by the group of Good Guys, know as the B.R.O.T.H.E.R.H.O.O.D. an all-black justice league to foil the Man's plan to derail a Colin Powell-like presidential candidate, and Undercover Brother's undercover exploits keep the slim plot moving. But while he and his sassy cat-fighting partner known as Sistah Girl tries to find out what's going on, the leader's ruthless right arm, Mr. Feather, discovers the conspiracy's sexy secret weapon, Penelope Snow. Amusing but lacking a much-needed pungency, Malcolm D. Lee's parody of the blaxploitation genre at least has enough strength to maintain its eighty-six minute running time. It's pleasant where it should have a mean streak and you can't help but feel it misses a lot of great opportunities. John Ridley (the screenwriter of Oliver Stone's wacky `U-Turn') and Michael McCullers adapt Ridley's internet cartoon series for the big screen with the likable Eddie Griffin in the title role, a black crusader stuck in the seventies (his hero is Jim Kelly) brought into a secret brotherhood (known as `The B.R.O.T.H.E.R.H.O.O.D.') organized to fight the evil white majority–led by `The Man' and populated by caricatures such as the voluptuous White She Devil (Denise Richards) and the nefarious Mr. Feather (an over-the-top Chris Kattan)–as they brainwash a black general (Billy Dee Williams) running for president to instead open a fried chicken franchise. Griffin gets good support from fellow spies Dave Chappelle (who, as the self-righteously paranoid Conspiracy Brother, embodies the film's ignored possibilities), Chi McBride as The Chief, Gary Anthony Williams as Smart Brother and Aunjanue Ellis as Sistah Girl. Unfortunately, there are few memorable lines and very little more than chuckles where there should be guffaws. Does anyone else think UB was a lot better than any of the Austin Power movies? Austin Powers (at least the sequels) was at it's time very hype but I found every movie a dissapointment. The humor was very immature and I found it rarely funny, few grins and probably one major ao laughing but that was pretty much it.<br/><br/>But yesterday when I saw UB on the rental store (the place where people rent movies, I'm not a native english-talker) and I was only wondering what's this? I'd never seen ANY ads or reviews so I decided to rent it without knowing anything beforehand. And man, I can't remember when was the last time I laughed as much as I now did (thinking it a bit, probably it's Half-Baked).<br/><br/>Eddie Griffin was surprisingly funny and cool, without looking too hilarious. I personally didn't find Chris Kattan that funny, rather one of the weirdest guys I've ever seen, but his dancing scene was one of the craziest scenes in the movie. Denise Richards is sexy as usual since Starship Troopers, but one supporting role steals the whole show. I'm starting to believe that David Shapelle is the best black fast-talking comedian. Although his character is pretty much the same in every movie, his absent minded paranoid pothead character is always funny as… fun.<br/><br/>The humor in this movie is very versatile and it's much more sophisticated than the fart and pee-jokes in Austin Powers. The only con which I found, was the fact, that this movie illustrates American society leaving non-Americans a bit outside.<br/><br/>But anyways, of the best comedys I've seen. **** out of 5 It has a premise that never stops percolating. Actually, when she first meets Anton Jackson in the hall when he knocks her books over, she does say you are "cute in a Theo Huxtable kind of way," she also says that to smart brother when she is at the Brotherhood Download The Omega Man full movie in hindi dubbed in Mp4download Episode 1.8Vice movie download in mp4Payback telugu full movie downloadtamil movie dubbed in hindi free download Garuda Power: The Spirit WithinCut the Fat full movie kickass torrentRoad in hindi downloadKung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Masters movie in tamil dubbed downloadR.U.R.: Genesis full movie in hindi free downloadGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 movie mp4 download
