Max Julien may have a baby face, but his character is pretty vile. Anyone who leaves a man locked in a car trunk with a plastic bag filled with rats isn't a hero worth rooting for. He's just gotten out of prison after a five year stretch, and insinuations of his hardships there reveals nothing. Threats by the same police who arrested him after a robbery don't seem to work, and an encounter with a member of the mob has him tossing the "greasy dude" into a dumpster. We're supposed to believe that he's going to survive long enough to start pumping, especially as he abuses the girls who work for him.
The only thing worth recommending about this is Richard Pryor in a supporting role, and he is completely wasted. This only seems to have been made to give black audiences a chance to laugh at the heavyset white fools who hire his girls, only to get ripped off by them, evidence by the guy running out of his hotel room in his boxer shorts, with only group of black people standing there as well as a black cop. An irritating film in every way.
