fresh:
Duke and company have been true to Himes' brash, blaspheming spirit, and that is no small thing.

[A] flamboyant, engaging action comedy.

rotten:
As the movie becomes increasingly violent and unpleasant, the characters chase around after each other in a threadbare gangster plot about a trunk of gold.

fresh:
Jazzy and jauntily funny.

rotten:
With its snazzy Elmer Bernstein score, its snappy period flavor and its all-star cast doing something completely different, A Rage in Harlem should have been much more fun than it is.
