Drop some acid and check this movie out. Then again, acid isn't really cool anymore and it's not really good for you. Maybe just get an extra protein boost in your Jamba. But still check this out if the world has gotten entirely too real and you just need to get away.

Putney Swope is the most acclaimed Downey Sr. film, and it's because it was one of the riskiest films I've seen. Hardcore satire here, the whole story is of a black man taking over an advertising company as a fluke. He then fires the white crews, hires stereotypical African Americans, and the film goes full pledged racism. The crew demanding watermelon breaks, instead of smoking breaks, and that's just average. I was laughing for the majority of the film, and the hilarious advertisements. I think some of the techniques were questionable, such as dubbing Putneys voice, but it paid off. It felt a bit like a publicity stunt, but stuck to the roots. Even has a Chafed Ellbows Easter egg in there. I think I'll probably re watch this with in the month

Robert Downey Sr.'s scathing comedy of race relations and the ad industry circa 1969, opens with a terrific scene in which Putney Swope, the token black man on an ad agency board is "accidentally" elected CEO. Solid comedy ensues for the next 30 or so minutes as the old white guys are swept out and Black Power reigns, highlighted by numerous commercials for bogus products and a unique take on the US president portrayed as a dope smoking dwarf. The movie loses momentum in the 2nd half as the story becomes increasingly disjointed, the script stops making sense, and the funny is replaced with the type of zany, in your face antics and sight gags popular in the day, but badly dated now. Still, always interesting and worth checking out as a product of it's time.
