OK. So maybe it's not quite THAT good. However, this grossly underappreciated film (and I say FILM, not "movie") has a lot to offer. Not only does it capture the zeitgeist of the fun, innocent 70's, but it also strips away the seemingly carefree life of the characters and shows the desperation within. Duane -- I mean, Abdullah is played brilliantly by the wonderfully gruff yet fragile Bill Duke. Ivan Dixon, who died today (and prompted my thinking about and reviewing this film), is equally marvelous as Abdullah's older, wiser alter ego, Lonny. Add in the always-memorable Antonio Fargas, along with Richard Pryor, The Pointer Sisters, George Carlin and Professor Irwin Corey (only in the 70's could such an ensemble be brought together), and you have a silly, fun, and, yes, meaningful slice of 70's nostalgia wrapped around a serious film. Don't forget Floyd and Lloyd on steam guns and Franklin Ajaye as Superfly, either.

I bought this DVD to bring back good memories of my father and I watching this movie on KTLA back in the 70's. My father saw them filming the movie down at Sixth and Alvarado in L.A. and he loved to watch it with me on late night TV. It is just pure classic 70's movie making and a lot of fun to watch and some good laughs.

Always enjoy this film whenever I see it. It's still very funny, and more so if you just sit back and enjoy it. It's not a masterpiece; and I don't think it was meant to be one. Just a funny, enjoyable movie. The Amazon editorial reviewer obviously tried to read too much into it.

THIS MOVIE IS A CLASSIC, 10 STAR MOVIE WITH ALL THE GREAT COMEDIANS OF THEIR TIME AND EVEN TO LATTER GENERATIONS. THE EDITOR FOR THIS MOVIE CRITIQUE SAID THAT "THIS MOVIE IS NOT ORIGINAL??" HELLOOOO THIS WAS MADE IN THE '70S! OF COURSE THIS MOVIE AND IT'S MATERIAL IS ORIGINAL, KIND OF A NOO BRAINER AND WHOMEVER GAVE THAT CRITIC HER JOB SHOULD CTIQUE THEMSELVES ON WHY IN THEE WORLD THEY GAVE HER THE POSITION.
SOMEONE SHOULD TELL THAT CRITIC, PAULA SELF-CHECK OR WHATEVER, THAT SHE HAS NO IDEA AS TO WHAT SHE IS TALKING ABOUT AND IF PEOPLE ALL OVER BELIEVE CRITICS LIKE HER, THAT SUCH TIMELESS MASTERPIECES SUCH AS THIS MOVIE "IS NO GOOD," EXCELLENT OR EVEN A DECENT MOVIE FOR THAT MATTER, NO MOVIE WORTH WATCHING WOULD GET ANY ATTENTION SO JUDGING FOR YOURSELF WOULD BE "THEE" BEST OPTION.
