Super Fly
Apart from the RiffTrax of Guy From Harlem, I'd never seen a 70's blaxploitation movie before, but I had an idea of what to expect: broadly drawn characters leaning on some pretty hoary stereotypes, direction and cinematography at a minimum, and a simple story.
And that's pretty much what this is. It's fun and got good energy, but whatever you picture in your mind when you see the movie poster or hear the movie's name, that's what you're gonna get. There are zero surprises to be found here (okay, maybe the editing is a surprise, as it is TERRIBLE). Beyond that, though, it is what it is, for better or worse.
