The first time I talked to Pez about this movie, I mistakingly referred to it as "Undercover Black-man". I know I'll never make that mistake again. (I almost made it the title of this thread, but I saw it and corrected it before any damage occured)

The story of a 1970s black hero in the year 2000, Undercover Brother is a comedy about the battle for racial acceptance.

Now, if the movie sounded even the least bit sophisticated from my description, throw that conception away. It's a dull comedy with way too many bad racial jokes. The only joke I remember, and the one that kept Pez, Chewi, and myself laughing for a minute, isn't even a joke:

Security Guard: Hey, you there! Don't move!
Undercover Brother and Sistah Girl: *run away*
Security Guard: Aw, damn. They moved!

All in all, this movie isn't really worth watching, unless you're doing research on stereotypes of whites and blacks in the 1970s.

Well, the movie itself was lacking, kinda like I-Spy. The jokes were sometimes funny, and a few were nice. The whole movie was just one big racist joke. The plot was pretty bad, like some of the jokes. Overall, it was a pretty poor movie.
