Among the many Blaxploitation films of the seventies, Black Belt Jones is certainly one of the best. Director Robert Clouse skilfully blends the action with humour and no cliché is left unturned. Jim Kelly proves very adept and his fighting style is both accomplished and enjoyable. Sporting cast of known genre names, such as Scatman Crothers, Gloria Hendry the film proves to be an entertaining eighty seven minutes. If you like this genre along with big Afro's, plaid pants and jive talking pimps, then Black Belt Jones ticks all the boxes. The plot is hardly complex drawing from stock story lines from the martial arts and action genres. However some of the dialogue is priceless with Malik Carter having all the best lines.
