For the first five minutes of the movie, I was enjoying myself. The crime fighting of Pootie Tang was actually funny, something right out of Dolemite. As soon as that scene ended, though, the laughs came to a screeching halt. I can't really point to a single reason (or even a vague idea) as to why the movie wasn't funny. It simply wasn't. If the movie was only 5 minutes long, I would have enjoyed it. In my opinion, though, it was about an hour and 15 minutes too long.
