Review of Cleopatra Jones (1973) by Andrew C — 30 Mar 2009

All furs and flares, with a sly nod to the burgeoning Kung Fu craze and all wrapped up in foxy blackexploitation's romp that is super fly sexy. As Cleo battles against the corrupt police officer who's really working for lesbian drug baron 'the Mommy', played with adept over the top charm by Shelly Winters, its a great way to spend a night unwinding, to some of the best funky sounds this side of Harlem, and one for thrash enthusiast everywhere.
