Audience Member I remember going to see this movie when it first came out years ago. Now I find myself watching again. I laugh at the jive talking. But I love seeing Jim Kelly, Jim Brown and Fred Williamson in action. The Bad and the Doctor should have been in more together.

Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Squandered potential with a great villain and mediocre justice. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review delysid d this is one of my favorite black 70s movies. it has all the typical aspects of this sort of film; funky music, nudity, fist fights, gun fights, car chases, cars blowing up, and an overly complicated plot. it also has kung fu. i like how easily the cars blow up in this movie. like you could just go over a speed bump back in them days and your car would explode. i also love when three badass topless chicks show up to torture a guy Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/12/17 Full Review Audience Member The soundtrack is a classic, period. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member An LA music producer (Jim Brown) runs afoul of a paramilitary organization that plans to kill every black person in America by introducing a disease to the water supply. They kill his buddy and kidnap his lady love (Sheila Frazier), but the bad guys didn't count on their quarry calling in a karate master (Jim Kelly) and a weapons expert (Fred WIlliamson) for backup. Three The Hard Way was directed by Gordon Parks Jr. after his success with Superfly and, while it didn't make as much impact, this blaxploitation effort is noteworthy for how its threadbare plot is strung up by frequent car chases, constant explosions, numerous gun fights, cheesy overacting, kung fu grappling, and a very bizarre pretext to feature topless women. Three The Hard Way is pulpy sleaze, but that's part of the fun. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
