Foxy Brown or Humina Humina Humina!

Take a slain undercover agent,his hot girlfriend swearing revenge by becoming an undercover hooker, gangsters, guns, cars and funky music...roll them together and what do you get? Foxy Brown!!! Originally meant to be a sequel of Coffy, the studio decided at the last minute that they didn't want to do a sequel, which is really puzzling since Coffy was a big hit. This movie has something for most audiences, and still holds up great today.
In an era where few films had a strong woman lead in an action film, this movie is a standout. Pam Grier in my opinion delivers an amazing performance. I remember the first time seeing this movie I was completely blown away, and it just seems to get better and better every time I see it. ( Not to mention that Pam Grier is so very hot in the movie) So anyone someone asks me for a great blaxpoitation action film I make sure this is at the top of the list. So my suggestion for this holiday season, run out and get this...granted it really doesn't have anything to do with the holidays, but it has Pam Grier (did I mention she's hot in this).
