I had been on a quest to see this movie for nearly 10 years, when a couple of friends of mine from choir would NOT shut up about how amazing it was. And then, years later, lo and behold I saw a pirated reasonably priced DVD copy on eBay, and immediately bought it. And after seeing it, let me tell you: it was WELL worth the wait. It is definitely not high art, but it is a lot of fun, and really, that is pretty much all you should expect from a movie called Black Belt Jones. This is a blaxploitation kung-fu movie with a ridiculous premise, a charismatic male lead, an unintentionally scary female lead, and great – if unintentionally preposterous – antagonists. If you liked Jim Kelly in Enter The Dragon, you will love him in Black Belt Jones. And the fight scenes were AMAZING. The opening credits roll over fistfight in a parking lot, peppered with freeze frames. There’s also a fight where the lights keep getting turned off and on every three seconds, a fight in a stopped train car, and the climactic fight in malfunctioning car wash. Oh yes. It is that glorious. A true B-movie treasure, sadly without an official DVD release at the moment, but worth tracking down if you can.
