Let's be honest, unless someone has a Black person in their life - such as a spouse or partner or maybe step parent - or IS black, they just aren't going to get it. It would also be awkward to have a white person reacting.
I'm so happy that somebody did this movie. My brother and I watched this movie so many times growing up, we still say several lines from the movie today.
I saw this at Magic Johnson's Theater on 125th in Harlem. The crowd reaction added so much to the movie and made it unforgettable. ERRBODY was rolling!!!!
One of my favorite movies. It came out around the same time the “Austin Powers” movie came out. Those movies compliment each other perfectly! I always wanted Undercover Brother & Austin Powers to team up.
@@nsasupporter7557 that there's a reason this film has a very similar vibe to Austin Powers.. the webtoon hits some darker and outrageous territory. My bad.. This was meant for the OP.
Stanley Clarke did the score for this movie. He's a legendary jazz fusion bassist. He played in Return to Forever back in the 70s. And his solo album "School Days" is a damn jazz funk masterpiece. Also, if you haven't seen Pootie Tang, add it to the list. And sine yo pitty on the runny kine.
Chris Katan was Feather. He was amazing in Saturday Night Live when he was on. He and Will Ferril went to acting/improv school together, and they starred together in the movie "Night at the Roxbury," which was also based on an SNL skit. My absolute favorite movie with him, though, is "Corky Romano." Its never been popular for some reason, but I've never laughed so hard at a movie. I thought I was going to die in the movie theater. I couldn't breathe. Should definitely check that movie out.
They did unfortunately do a dtv sequel.. YIKES. But if you can still find the flash animated web toon it's a fun watch.. but the Lance character is very her different.. But you can see the germ of this idea.. Then know that the toon was adapted by one of the writers of Austin Powers this makes complete sense.
@@alucard624 I think you're right .I probably need to break out my Dvd.. It's.. Somewhere. Lol. Can't remember the last time I actually watched a disc.
The actress who played Sistah Girl was the Chief on a cop show called The Mentalist, but only for one or two seasons. Best-lookin law enforcement agent you ever saw.
Another kinda similar movie to this that is also hilarious is "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka" by Keenen Ivory Wayans (and the rest of the Wayans family) plus Bernie Casey, Jim Brown, Antonio Fargas (pay attention to his kicks) and a young Chris Rock. It's a classic!
Blimey I've not watched this in AGES! Brilliantly funny and a good twist on spy films 😂😂 Conspiracy Brother, Smart Brother and Sistah Girl are brilliant
I met Eddie once. I won a comedy contest my first year in at the Funnybone, and the closer, Jake, of our show was the opener for Eddie for the rest of the week. I did a guest spot on Jakes show the next day and went to the green room to hang with him before he went up, but Eddie was in there watching the show, and a game. Gave me some comedy advice. Cool dude. Apparently that weekend, he drunkenly walked to taco bell at 3am but they wouldn't serve him with no car. The next day, the manager, who I hung with at the bar said he was watching TV, and this movie came on, and he realized it was Eddie at his window LOL!
So glad someone finally reacted to this, and it's so appropriate it was here. Such a great comedy, and seemingly forgotten. A great script, and brilliant casting.
I really wish they had made a sequel..i had a dream about a sequel bringing in former "blaxploitation" stars were actually OG BROTHERHOOD agents.. So you could have had Fred "the hammer" Williamson or Pam Grier as cameos. Could you imagine Jaleel white as a secret weapon of "the man"? Lol. Could have been so much fun. Shame we never got more.
Eddie Griffin a man that has seemed to be forgotten just like Katt Williams it's honestly sad not only are they funny in movies and TV shows but they are both amazing stand-up comics. Eddie Griffin is super funny in the movie new guy
Having seen this comedic movie style, it only stands to reason you continue with "Black Dynamite". Michael Jai White heads up a great tribute to '70's Blacksploitation films and Bruce Lee films that is fun and funny. There's also an animated series that's even wilder. They are both in my favorites in comedy. I think you would lose it watching them.
Before watching this I just need to let you know you gotta get 'Blue Streak' from 1999 with Martin Lawrence, Dave Chappelle and Luke Wilson on your list ;-)
Quick! Watch Shaft, Blackkklansman (Spike Lee), Krush Groove (the greatest Hip Hop movie ever made, based on a true story) or Blazing Saddles. That will set you straight. I'm white, but sometimes I need to watch those kinds of movies or I start to weird myself out. I hear you with the "caucasian overload." Someone talked me into watching Cool As Ice starring Vanilla Ice and I wasn't the same for weeks.
I remember seeing this movie in an almost empty theater. (I think there were like three other people.) That fight scene with UCB and Feather had me cracking up!
I'm so glad you watched this movie,it has been a favorite of me and my daughter's when it first came out. It is hilarious. Great job. Miracles and blessings to you and yours ✌️ 💜
Got this recommended and it made me think of something I did with a friend. I used to play Irish bagpipes and was friends with a maker of them. I used to help him out in his workshop. The instrument needs reeds to function and one day, after smoking a lot of weed and having watched undercover brother the evening before, we decided to put UCB on one of my reeds. Since this instrument is hard to play and make, there is a lot of history, every little thing that is found out usually has meaning. Measurements, material, etc. NOBODY will know what UCB means when they see that reed and speculation will be wild. 😂
If you like this movie you gotta watch BLACK DYNAMITE. It's incredible. And another Eddie Griffin movie to check out is FOOLISH. It also has Master P in it, and I think he directed it too.
I'm only 15 mins in and I'm crying laughing with you. We watch this about 3 times a year i think. it is never not funny. *settles in for the shower fight scene.
