Review of TNT Jackson

TNT Jackson (1974)
5/10
O.K. blaxploitationer does offer some fun.
7 February 1999
T.N.T. JACKSON sets aside the other "blaxplo" movies from the era because of the fact this was made somewhere in the Filipino region. In other words, this isn't the U.S.A., but the scenery is a change of heart. Sort of like another martial arts picture with scratchy print quality and a plain "THE END" screen. It does deliver some fun, and you won't want to miss former PLAYBOY playmate Jeanne Bell do some topless kung-fu in her undies. All said and done, the pleasure best compares to a Mighty Mouse cartoon. I've seen many action movies with female leads before, and there isn't a whole lot they can do. Bell's moves, while high flying, aren't choreographed very well and they look as if they're fragile. It's a good combo of the two classic 70s genres wrapped up in one single outing. There could have been more to prevent this from being your totally average movie, though.
