The last time I saw this movie was at least a good nine years ago... years later, I find it just as funny as I did then.

How could you not enjoy this movie? It was actually enjoyable to watch Damon Wayans' character make all these far-out gadgets... some of which look totally outlandish, but actually make sense! Sure, the comedy may be a little too goofy for some, but in the end, it helps. This movie also helped me further my belief that if you get out there and do something about a problem, you'll be making a real difference in a world of indifference.

this movie is worthy of an 8 out of 10.

Oh man is Damon Wayans hilarious. And paired up with David Alan Grier... comedy gold! They already had chemistry as their "Men on Films" comedy sketch from "In Living Color" was one of the funniest sketches of the entire show.

"Blankman" is insanely stupid and it's a riot. Kevin Walker (Damon Wayans) is a very unremarkable geek with a penchant for making shoddy gadgets out of discarded appliances and electronics. If you used to like Steve Urkel, then think of Kevin as a more effeminate and older version. When he discovers a solution to make his clothing indestructible he decides to become a superhero. The name Blankman was given rather than chosen. The movie is cut in the mold of the old Batman T.V. show except with a comedic air.

Kevin's geekiness is only made funnier in juxtaposition to his normal brother, Darryl (David Alan Grier),who takes every opportunity to insult Kevin.

Wayan's antics make the movie. It's not a brilliant movie by any means, which is quite alright. It is a clean movie though, for the most part--not relying on sexual humor or a barrage of profanity. I may be nuts for even liking this movie, but I was already open to enjoying "Blankman" due to my "In Living Color" fandom. What can I say? There are worse movies I could like.

Darryl Walker (Damon Wayans) and Kevin Walker (David Alan Grier) are brothers who loved the 60s Batman TV show when they were kids. Darryl grew up to be a childlike gadget inventor. Kevin is a cameraman for local TV news and in love with anchor Kimberly Jonz (Robin Givens). The boys live with their grandma who is a big fan of mayor candidate Marvin Harris. Harris intends to clean up the city where the police stopped caring after they stopped getting paid. The Walkers are in a crime-infested rundown neighborhood in Chicago. Harris refuses to be bought by gangster Michael Minelli and he sends goons to shoot up Harris's campaign office. Grandma Walker is killed. Darryl creates his Blankman vigilante persona with a formula he accidentally created which turns fabric impenetrable and his various gadgets.

Damon Wayans is so annoying in this and he destroys any hope for a comedy. The story is more akin to the campy 60s Batman TV show. There're a couple of ways to make a good movie out of this. All of them require Damon to play a likable character. It can be stupid if it wants to be but the audience has to find Darryle adorable. Without that, nothing else could possibly work.
