This Blaxploitation film may not be considered as one of the best, but it's still a good one and very entertaining.The action and fight scenes are good in a realistic way, the acting is not bad, and the story is easy to follow.
Good action, excitement, nudity, a funky soundtrack and cool dialogs,
the fans of Blaxploitation will enjoy it.
Fred Williamson does a fine job,
he's one bad dude.
Its Hammer time.
7/10
