Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Leofwine_draca In a change from their usual run of low rent thrillers and sexploitation films, Vinegar Syndrome have been kind enough to put out SUPER SOUL BROTHER, a blaxploitation comedy by contrast. Watching it, you'll wish they hadn't. It's the slowest, dumbest comedy ever, a would-be blaxploitation spoof of SUPERMAN in which an average Joe is injected with a serum that gives him superhuman strength. This gives him the ability to pick up heavy safes (that suspiciously look like they're made of wood) and huge boulders.It sounds good written down, but the reality is very different. For virtually a whole hour nothing much happens, apart from bad actors mugging at the screen and the occasional sex scene used for padding. There's jive talk a-plenty, random and boring romantic material, and no familiar faces in sight. At the end there are plenty of double crosses and supposedly thrilling situations, but they're all portrayed in such a lousy, stilted way that you'll be desperate for the movie to end.

linkwrayman Don't listen to any of these bad reviews. This is one of the finest films of the 20th century. I'm not joking, either. Like nothing your ears have ever heard. Like nothing your eyes have ever seen. This flick exists in a world of it's own, no comparisons will do. Not much action to speak of, nor any budget. Probably not even a script. But, oh, what it does possess. Your imagination couldn't possibly conjure a mental picture of the goings on. I ain't going to spoil anything, but if you're tired of viewing the REAL garbage that passes for film these days, then this is the landfill to wallow in. If you don't dig this go watch Tom Hanks' Punchline.

keeponwithbrian Don't bother seeking out Super Soul Brother, it Super Sucks! On the back of the box it says "In the spirit of The Devil's Son in Law...", which means it's supposed to be like "Petey Wheatstraw: the Devil's Son in Law" - well, it's not. PW was hilarious and starred Rudy Ray Moore as the title character. Actually Wildman Steve who stars in SSB is in PW for one scene as a nightclub owner talking about how patrons "whipe their sh*tty ass". The problem is, Wildman Steve isn't funny and lacks much personality. He's no Rudy Ray and as a matter of fact, you can hear him using Rudy Ray's lines in Super Soul Brother to no effect. Wildman Steve shouldn't take all the blame for this mess. It's filmed & edited badly and the acting is awful, which I would've accepted if there was some funny dialogue. I have to say, if Rudy Ray was in the lead, the film might've been saved. Bottom Line: Super Soul Brother just isn't that good or exciting. Even if you're a fan of the Dolemite & Petey Wheatstraw films. It doesn't help that Wildman Steve doesn't have much presence or funny jokes.One question: If he's supposed to be the strongest man in the world why does he lift safes and huge rocks with moderate difficulty? Shouldn't he be able to sling those things around. The one part I found funny.

Alex (MooVbuff-3) This film has some really funny lines in it but is hard to appreciate because of its poor handling of the plot and also the bad editing job of the film! There are many subplots that aren't needed in the film, scenes that never develop into anything significant later in the movie. Someone earlier mentioned the same scene of a view from an apartment window used from the director's previous film. This scene (lasting all of about thirty seconds) seems to have been left out in the new video version of the movie. It was intact on an older video release, on a rental videotape. Anyone know why they cut this short scene out where Steve is shown the amenities of his new apartment??? The film was not prepared properly for video. Lots of camera shots are cut off, and for the most part of the movie you can only see partial head shots in closeups! And for one more regret, the end was so abrupt if I had blinked I would have missed it!!! Nevertheless, I still enjoy watching it and recommend it.
