Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996)

Intermittently funny, but too long

[5/10 · 23 July 2017]

This spoof of early-1990s "hood" movies is like an R-rated "Naked Gun" - on crack. It's sometimes funny and clever (I liked the gag of father and son being the same age (!), or the raining autumn leaves), other times vulgar and witless. And it's too long (a full 90 minutes) for this kind of plot-less parody. The title may be the best joke of them all! ** out of 4.
