Product Description
Product description
The adventures of Pootie Tang, an inner city crime fighter who speaks a language that nobody understands.
Genre: Feature Film Urban Comedy
Rating: PG13
Release Date: 2-MAY-2006
Media Type: DVD
Amazon.com
Pootie Tang pushes blaxploitation to the point of surrealism. The title character--who first appeared on The Chris Rock Show--speaks a kind of slang on steroids, an incomprehensible stream of nonsense syllables that nonetheless makes him irresistible to women and a threat to evildoers everywhere. Pootie is part movie star, part superhero, righting wrongs with the slap of his daddy's belt. But when an evil corporation uses a super-ho named Ireenie (Jennifer Coolidge from Best in Show and Legally Blonde) to steal this magic belt, Pootie must find himself again. In the title role, Lance Crouther glides through the movie like Isaac Hayes's skinny younger brother, while Chris Rock lends his trademark bark to multiple roles, including Pootie's father. Crazed editing and a great soundtrack give Pootie Tang a little extra oomph. A bizarre comedy, likely to develop a cult following. Cameos by Missy Elliot and Bob Costas. --Bret Fetzer

- Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2024This is a laugh out loud amazing comedy starting amazing cast and costume designs a wonderful story the whole family can enjoy. Important messages for children. The only downside is technically you'd be supporting a very icky problematic person ....but if you can put that aside a great movie. Wanda Sykes is a national treasure
- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2020I love the movie Pootie Tang its fictitious storyline is fun and I can appreciate many of the farfetched witty lines and comedy scenes through out the movie. The actors and actresses that make this movie what it is today and my love for the main star Lance Crouther's keeps me watching this movie for many years to come... Wanada Sykes, Chris Rock made it so worthy to watch giving it that addded humorous touch...I will continue to view this movie years from now..The music sound track made this movie really special also, many GREAT songs performed and the group singing the theme were really special ..I really love watching this movie.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2024Pootie Tang is THE perfect experience, and the perfect ending to the Twilight Saga.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2024This is something that you watch for a cheap comedy with Chris Rock really making it stand out in my opinion. If you can get past the intentional gibberish from the lead it’s pretty funny.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2008Unforgettable! I was stunned with my mouth open through the whole thing. Pootie walks on air from beginning to end. Luckily there's no acting here (except for Bob Costas who's perfectly terrible at it). There's no Hollywood formula; in fact, no formula. If it were a polished movie it would be idiotic and would give away all its honesty. It's a Chris Rock thing. Kid-like honesty with a brutal punch. A morality play about morality and I think it succeeds in giving a silly trashing to the simplistic morality constantly thrown at blacks (and at others) while doing it so innocently it doesn't ever have to admit to any manipulation or blaxploitation.
At the same time it takes on the black music-video culture into looking at itself and maybe frees it from that aspect of appearing impenetrable to external moral demands or judgments. As Jung said, "What you resist, persists." This kid is regressing to speaking in tongues. "Pidgin" is a simple language which arises between two groups of people who don't speak the same language. Pootie's pidgin is a start that many of us might agree on. Whether your reaction is "sepatown" or "sa da tay", if you don't get a laugh out of it, this movie's for you.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2024One of the best movies of all time. No cap!

5.0 out of 5 stars "Baby, I'm going to sine your pitty on the runny kine!"
Pootie Tang will draw you a picture of how he gonna kick your ass, then mail it to you ten days in advance. The picture gets there right? You're goin', "What the hell is this?" and then Pootie Tang knocks on your door, Promptly kicks your ass and you still won't know what happened to you!
Pootie Tang, the musician/actor/folk hero of the ghetto, is chronicled from his early childhood to his battles against the evil Corporate America, who try to steal his magic belt and make him sell out by endorsing addictive products to his people. Pootie must learn to find himself and defeat the evil corporation for all the young black children of America, supatime.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best movie ever made
Watched this movie probably 100 times by now, just needed a new copy. Cole me down on the panny stai.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great DVD if you like Pootie Tang
Bought as a silly stocking filler because it was directed by Louis C.K. And the recipient loves Louis C.K.
Delivered in excellent condition.
I wouldn't openly encourage anyone to buy this dvd as I heard it was rubbish - I even think Louis C.K. Is embarrased to have his name put to it.
