It has been about five years since I watched this with a bunch of college floormates - pretty much purely for the chance to make sarcastic comments about the cheesiness of it, and believe me, that is the only suitable way of watching this movie. Surprisingly, I found myself making the majority of the comments, because this is one clunky film. The plot obviously completely eludes me at this time, but I can give you a few major highlights. First, there is a cat that seems to keep showing up in scene after scene - even after it seems to have been killed in a gunfight or elsewhere earlier. Additionally, there's some very dark humor during a major gunfight inside a hospital (I'm not kidding: Isaac Hayes shoots up the bad guys as they trip over people in crutches, bandages, and wheelchairs). Finally, the number one reason to see this is any scene involving Lt. Uhura herself (Nichelle Nichols of "Star Trek"), who plays a kind of Queen Mother for the prostitution ring controlled by the bad guys, and completely chews up the scenery. Her single funniest line: "My hoes are the finest hoes in the world. They're so fantastic, they're almost too good to F#$%!!" If stuff like this doesn't interest you, then stay away. Otherwise, let the sarcastic comments fly.
