Enjoyable trashy 70s kung fu flick, 2 July 2006
6/10
Author: davideo-2 from United Kingdom

STAR RATING: ***** Jodie Marsh **** Michelle Marsh *** Kym Marsh ** Rodney Marsh * Hackney Marsh

Diana 'TNT' Jackson (Jeannie Bell) travels to Hong Kong to search for her brother's killer. But she's no ordinary sister searching for revenge. She's a high-kicking martial arts expert who can sass it to ya' like Cleopatra! She uncovers a large-scale heroin smuggling ring which draws her into a brutal final confrontation with her brother's assailant.

At just 68 minutes and with as minimal a plot as it could possibly squeeze into it's writer's high kicks and fancy punches filled imaginations, TNT Jackson can be described as nothing else but a perfect example of a fun trashy 70s kung fu movie. It's an unintentional laugh riot, from the appropriately lamentable acting right down to the camera, filled with funny lines, bad lighting and shaky production values.

Jeannie Bell won't go down as the most memorable blaxploitation star ever. She lacks the in your face sassiness of Pam Grier in her Foxy Brown persona. But the film itself is what it is and if it's what you're seeking out, you will not be disappointed. ***
