  • Directed by indie action aficionado Robbie Davidson, the low-budget 'Dick Dynamite' delivers a plethora of adrenaline-fueled set pieces and blood-soaked Nazi kills, blending 1940s serial flair with crude, self-aware humor.
  • While 'Dick Dynamite' may lack in deep character development, it more than makes up for it with its promise of a pulpy, B-movie thrill ride, drawing comparisons to the R-rated comic book sensibilities of 'The Suicide Squad' over the PG-13 heroics of 'Captain America'.
