Audience Reviews for Dynamite Chicken

Sep 05, 2010

This 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.
