(J. Lindner, 2009-01-10) Wow, What a bad movie. The acting is horrible, and the fight scenes are totally fake. You can see the swinging arms clearly missing the targets but the victim winces in pain none the less. They must be wincing at what they know the audiences will see. The plot has unique twists, with a lot of cutting edge interracial scenes, but that doesn't do much to raise the movie to any serious level of quality acting or production. This is a bomb and I wouldn't recommend this one to a jail full of men who haven't seen a woman in years.
(Guss H., 2008-09-01) I picked this up because I've always admired Pam Grier. For many years, even now one of the sexiest, most stunning women in films. This has always been my fav of her early films. Now that I own it I like it even better. The image and sound quality of the DVD are top-notch. Not blurred and scratchy like many films from the old American International library. The twenty five year old Pam takes your breath away in every scene. A big surprise for me was the commentary from director Jack Hill who like many film makers of the 70s came under harsh criticism for making the so called blaxplotation movies.(the films were accused of negatively portraying afro-americans,and targeting black audiences when they were largely produced, directed and written by whites.) Mr. Hill's informative comments gave me a new understanding of how and why these films were made and sold. Above all the wonderful acting and beautiful presence of Pam Grier makes this flick more then just a fond memory from my teenage days.
(Peter Sampson, 2007-07-17) There's some real baddies who deserve everything they get in this blaxploitation classic and who better to dish it out than super foxy Pam Grier and friends. Not as fast paced and a bit uglier than say 'Coffy' but still well worth a look.
(Eric Robinson, 2007-07-12) Pam is definitely hot and bad once again in this film title. She's taken down the mob along with some mean dudes. At the end, the white guy gets his pecker cut off with a big old 6 inch knife. And the way she gave his girlfriend that pickle jar with his anatomy in it was funny as hell. They really should have never killed Foxy's man and her brother. I'm really glad that Pam Grier's movies have finally been released on dvd where they belong.
(Li Sheung Shun, 2007-05-12) I bought this one because I saw Coffy before, which is quite entertaining, but this one is an extreme bore. Display of martial art in Coffy is completely lacking here. The story is tediuos and lacklustre. I don"t want to say more.
