      Bernard Drew Gannett News Service [Billy Dee Williams] has developed in record lime, the ease, smoothness and likability of a big star, Oct 2, 2019 Full Review Sean Axmaker Parallax View ... a conventional version of the mainstream crime caper with a rare African-American lead, which is the film's only memorable accomplishment.

      Audience Member It's a hokey, at times silly, full of the tropes of the spy/mafia movie genre of the fabulous 70's. Included is a glimpse of the movie The God Father playing on a movie screen during an assassination. This American production didn't waist time or a lot of emphasis on the french dialogue feeling authentic, The french cast repeating their lines and at times just singing, Billy Dee Williams mumbling his way through his french lines, not knowing how to exactly hold the bazooka at the end of the picture was priceless. But this should have been titled Hits! Plural with an ssssss. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I tried to sit through this but it was SOOOOOOOO slow. Seriously the entire movie is Billy Dee gets a team together and they kill a drug maker. There is no reason for this to be 2hr14min. Cut out 45 minutes at LEAST and then maybe, but GAWD it was BORING. And I love me my blaxsploitation too... Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
