Leave your thoughts about Dynamite Chicken.
| User ReviewBrandon NThis movie is awesome! It pretty much changed my life! Don't let the synopsis fool you, the movie is really about a retired bomb squad member who seeks revenge on a farmer by strapping dynamite to a chicken. The chicken's speed cannot decrease below 5 mph, otherwise the bomb will detonate. |
| User ReviewMichael TWow this is one weird little movie! Pryor pops up quite a lot to tell jokes about the culture of the 70's which is about the most normal part of this movie! The rest of it is broken down into topics that were big in the 70's because they were just breaking in (womens lib, police violence, vietnam, etc) with different types of people commenting on them. Then its full if weird segways and clips from old movies, adverts, shot for the movie comedy sketches, music and just plain crazy stuff! Theres a fair bit of random nudity either which will keep some people happy i guess! Loads of weird arthouse and experimental shots which whizz through the movie. Theres famous people here to (some you'll know some you'll not!) who pass commentary and jokes depending on what the section is. Its an interesting time capsule about what types of things were going on in that time era. They certainly do not make them like this anymore! The only problem is that its a bit to weird and some people may feel alienated just because its such a maverick production. Some of it has aged badly to! But its never boring! |
| User ReviewAj VThis is a very interesting film it's like a combination of an experimental movie, comedy sketches, and stand up comedy. Pryor had a great idea with making this movie, but it's uneven and kind of strange. There are a lot of important 60s people in it, though, so it's a cool movie to see anyway. |
