THIS MOVIE IS: Raunchy, Irreverent, Heartfelt
In 1970s LA, struggling comedian Rudy Ray Moore hits it big with his raunchy alter ego, Dolemite, then risks it all to take his act to the big screen. Even if you were unaware of the indelible existence of “Dolemite” and its sequels, you wouldn’t be inclined to worry too much. It has a loose, friendly, house-party vibe, and it’s impossible not to have a good time watching the actors have a good time with one another.
