Movie Reviews of TNT Jackson
Movie Review: An afro doth not a Pam Grier make...
Summary: 3 Stars
The movie is okay. It has it's good points; Jeanne Bell, who is very attractive and has a topless karate fight at one point in the movie and the character Charlie who is one of the coolest characters ever in motion pictures! It has it's moments of great dialog and some pretty humorous attempts at kung-fu fighting. The sets and wardrobe are great!
And some bad points, but I wont get into those here. If youre familiar with exploitation movies from the 70's, you know not to expect cinematic genius in most cases.
This is not a Jack Hill/Pam Grier/Sid Haig flick, so dont expect the greatness present in Coffy or Foxy Brown. Its not as cool or quirky as those movies, but it's not as bad as some I've seen either.
The presentation is not too great; a sometimes too dark print in widescreen but again it's not as bad as some I've seen. I only paid a dollar for mine, so I'm okay with it.
Movie Review: Not a good transfer to DVD
Summary: 2 Stars
I'm not rating this movie based on the acting. I knew going into it that this wasn't going to be a piece of 'high-art' film-making.
I am giving this movie a 2-star rating , however, because the transfer is very poor quality. The producers of the DVD made no attempts to clean up the film and it is riddled with scratches from the original filmstock. Also, the sound quality is extremely bad. I have to practically turn the volume all the way up just to hear what the actors are saying, but then I also get a lot of 'hiss' from the speakers for doing that.
As a 70's era Blaxploitation movie it's adequate. Not one of the best examples certainly, but I've seen worse.
It's probably not going to get a better release than this, so if you're into these types of movies just be advised that this DVD transfer is very inferior quality.
Movie Review: In a nutshell: unbelievable bad.
Summary: 1 Stars
"TNT" is really an incredibly bad movie, and there is no reason I can give you why you should prefer this one over any other Blaxploitation flick of your random choice. The sound- and picture quality are lousy/dreadful..the actors are implausible and the story is.....One could really tear one's hair!
