<em>'Dolemite Is My Name'</em> is terrific.

I did find the opening 30-40 minutes to be lesser, still perfectly good but just nothing all that noteworthy. However, the following 60-80 minutes is top notch, I found it thoroughly entertaining. Eddie Murphy is great fun, while Da'Vine Joy Randolph stars behind the aforementioned. Wesley Snipes is amusing too.

Gotta check out the original Dolemite movie at some point, intrigued to see how it'll … read the rest.
