I am amazed at the bad reviews of this film. really? Does anybody understand what the whole blaxploitation movement was about? Black films made on shoestring budgets, in an industry where black folk couldn't get a job in film for about 50 years! This film is what it was meant to be: FUll of sex, violence and a leading BLACK star. It achieves this on all fronts, and is pretty damned entertaining. Read some books if you weren't alive during that time. These films weren't made to win Academy awards, they were made to make MONEY! You want acting, go see Denzel, you want action, this is the film for you! DO some research before you ost pointless comments about "BAd acting and bad plot" What did u expect! DUH!
