A hilarious Soul Cinema send-up, this ultra-slick, urban action comedy blows 70`s blaxploitation movies right out of the `hood! Featuring the very funny Wayans family (Keenen, Damon and Kim), Bernie Casey, Antonio Fargas, Isaac Hayes, Jim Brown, Ja`net DuBois, David Alan Grier, Kadeem Hardison and Chris Rock, I`m Gonna Git You Sucka is a perfect "mixture of nostalgia, silliness and genuinely unpredictable humor" (The New York Times).

Jack Spade, a goody-goody war hero with medals for short-hand, returns to the ghetto to discover that his brother, Junebug, has OG`d (Over-Golded) on jewelry. Jack swears revenge against the local gang boss, Mr. Big, and sets off to enlist an army of Shaft, Superfly and Black Caesar - look-a-likes, that is. They don`t come easy, cheap - or young -- but they do have nice clothes and enough firepower left in them to practically destroy Mr. Big`s Big Brim Bar where the bad guys wear - you guessed it - big hats!
