Lil' Pimp

Review: I thought that this movie was quite funny in parts, especially Bernie Mac who will be truly missed, but it does get a bit silly after a while. All the pimp game scenes were funny but the little kid was a bit annoying. Some of the jokes weren't that funny and the storyline was a bit strange, but it's harmless fun for adults. Its not in the same category as The Boondocks, which I thoroughly enjoyed and the animation was pretty quite bad, but Fruit Juice cracked me up along with some of his hoes. Anyway it's worth a watch if you want a few laughs, but it could have been much better. Watchable!

Round-Up: Out of all of the characters in this animation movie about getting into the pimp game, Bernie Mac had to be the funniest. I like the fact that the Producers added some swearing and profanity, because that's what made it funny. It made me laugh when they tried to dress the little kid as a pimp along with the scenes when he's dancing in the club, but when the whole Mayor Tony aspect come into play, it just gets a bit over the top. You do have to be into this type of humour to really enjoy it because there are going to be some people that will take offence to some of the language, but if you don't take it seriously, you will find some of the scenes shockingly funny.

I recommend this movie to people who are into there animation movies about a young kid who wants to become a pimp. 4/10

The only reason I gave this film a 7 out of 10 is because a flat 6 seems too low but it does feel a bit below a 7 as well. Let me explain myself first.

This movie started off very hilarious. This kid who always gets picked on finds himself trying to help women cross the streets and wound up escorting this whore to her club. I think the concept of a snot nose kid and his pet rat who's white but comes off as a ghetto raised thug and making these funny one-liners all the time was hilarious and makes the movie all worth watching.

The voices were very good and done by a very nice cast. The voices fit the personalities quite well and makes the jokes even funnier, if Junior sounded like a regular kid do you think you would've found his jokes funny or feel an innocent vibe with him? Nope! Bernie Mac and Ludicrous were my favorite appearances though, even though the others were really good.

The animation was admitting crappy but so what? You can't always judge a good film on its looks. I think it's about time someone stood up to the harsh media world and say "Hey, I can make a crappy looking film and make it hilarious!" Seriously, why would people even comment on how bad the movie is but only mention the animation. All that does is make you look stupid and push all your opinions aside for anyone who has enough common sense to know that comments like that aren't needed.

The downfall was where the comedy started to fall flat. Many may think that Weathers was the only comedy in the movie but I beg to differ. At 1st he was hilarious and had me asking for more, until I realized he is really pretty aggravating and makes his one-liner comments in every other 3 to 5 sentences. The more Weather's mouth opened, the more his jokes actually seemed to fall. By the end of the movie not only did I stop laughing at his jokes but I started getting upset by them.

Besides Weathers actually irritating me, the storyline should've ran on a gag instead of running on a story. Seriously, like I stated in this comment before, the regular concept of a shrimpy white boy experiencing the life of a pimp was funny enough but when I started to realize that there was a real storyline going on then I started to get disappointed because the jokes started failing to make me laugh, the characters were being pretty off, and the story itself was pretty stupid and fell away from what the film started off as.

With all said and done I still think this movie is worth the watch and should definitely be rented if not bought.

I thought "Lil' Pimp" was pretty funny. Who cares if it is offensive because it's just a movie. It's about a little white kid who decides to live with the ho's and pimps. He wants to become a pimp after seeing their lifestyle. There's also the sub-plot of corrupt mayor Tony Gold (Voiced by William Shatner) who wants to control the prostitution racket. There are some big laughs here. Most of them come from Gold's idiot police henchmen. Some jokes do fall flat. The character of Weathers (Voiced by Ludicrous) is little grating. Jennifer Tilly doesn't do anything to advance the plot as Lil' Pimp's teacher. Besides that, everything else is very funny. It's worth a look.

The theme music was choice as.

Bernie Mack was funny as as Fruitjuice.

So was the voice of Lil Pimp.

Cool cameo from Dolemite as Mr Slippers.

I found it a entertaining change from Southpark and The Simpsons et al.

But the style was obviously influenced by the two.

As well as blaxpolitation pimp flicks such as "Superfly" and "The Mack".

Pushed the envelope a bit content-wise, which is why it had a higher age rating.

A lil short on running time but animation normally is.

Bring on more adventures of Lil Pimp!

First and foremost keep the kids away from this movie.

This is the story of Lil' Pimp, a grade schooler who saves not only pimpdom, but the city from the evil clutches of the mayor.

Its the first, and one hopes the last, attempt to make a complete feature film using the Macromedia Flash Animation program. Normally its used for two or three minute clips where its fine but here, as a feature, it doesn't work. Its much too limited and ultimately becomes annoying even on a TV screen. I doubt would have worked on the big screen since its often little more than static pictures with one or two things in motion. The animation is so limited that it makes the cut outs of South Park look like the work of Leonardo Da Vinci. The animators simply don't give us enough to look at. Ultimately the style of animation dooms the film for any kind of success.

Plot wise, first, second and third reports told of how this film was a complete and total disaster; of retakes, of complete rewrites, animators being sacked then cheaper help being brought in to save what many said was beyond saving. I'm happy to report that the film isn't as god awful as the stories made it out to be. The humor is as low as you can go. If you can accept a kid as a pimp and don't mind dirty jokes and situations then you'll at least like this film, assuming the animation style doesn't rot your brain (yes its that bad) Pretty much its no more than an okay film, and its nothing one would or should actually pay to see, but for free on TV with some drunk friends this could be an amusing time killer late on a Saturday night.
