Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Having previously wrote and produced Boss N!gger-which I highly enjoyed-here Fred Williamson adds director to his resume. Unfortunately, unlike the work I just mentioned, Adios Amigo is more of a mess narratively with Fred a frequent fall guy for Richard Pryor's con games that aren't very funny with Richard's lines mostly improvised. I half thought when Pryor's character would encounter an old man named Noah (Thalmus Rasulala in convincing aging makeup) and his nubile young women that there might be some raunchy humor but results there and pretty much the rest of the picture was tepid at best. Another disappointment was the mention in the credits of The Ink Spots making an appearance but they don't sing here just do some steps and finger snappin' or that's what it looked like to me. Really, I just can't recommend Adios Amigo.

This is basically a series of vignettes with escaped prisoner Fred Williamson following conman/bandit Richard Pryor across the old west (Why?) and becoming the foil of Pryor's comedic schemes, after which he always takes off, leaving Williamson holding the bag.Though not really funny in a laugh-out-loud kind of way, it's all pretty laid back and easygoing, with Williamson and Pryor fairly likable, making this entertaining for awhile.About halfway through though, it starts to get a bit tedious, with a "plot" that's way too fluid and a budget that's too low to make this something I'd recommend to people who aren't already huge fans of the two stars.The worse things about this are the repetitive use of the corny funk theme song and the fact that the legendary vocal group The Ink Spots make an appearance but aren't given a chance to sing.

i found this movie for a very cheap price and thought,how bad could it be.right off,i could tell the budget was next to nothing.at least it felt that way.it is supposed to be comedy,but from what i watched,it was not funny at all.i also noticed that the same manufacturer and distributer were also behind "Dan Candy's Law".i think the production values are better on this film.at least the movement of the lips and the words matched,unlike "Dan Candy's Law"but i also thought the acting wasn't very good.Richard Pryor and Fred Williamson are the main characters,co the movie should have been funny,but to me it was not.i might try and watch it some other time,and maybe i will have a different opinion.but for right now,i didn't like it.

This was HORRIBLE! You may be tempted to watch it for a chance to see Richard Pryor in his prime, but don't. Pryor isn't funny, and the film is a complete mess. It was obviously made very cheaply, but Fred ¨the Hammer¨ seems to have trying to make a bad film here. Everything appears to have been shot in one take, and I'm guessing they didn't even have a screenplay written up for this one. It's just Fred getting into about fifty brawls, and Pryor doing his con man shtick. Don't get me wrong, I like both these guys, but this was a truly terrible filmThe movie does have a cool theme song, but you'll get tired of it after about the 40th time!
