The lead actress is quite compelling. The movie feels like it leans too much on her sex appeal though. Some of the support actors weren't great. Still, plenty of action and not a bad effort overall.

Grier's sassiness is the glue that holds it together, and the film's abundance of attitude compensates a lot for its technical shortcomings. Foxy Brown is a must if you're into cult classics.

One of the best blaxploitation movie ever! Pam Grier is an icon and she's hot af.

Watchable, campy, and often brutal tale of revenge. Contains a surprising amount of gore. Pam Grier is all kinds of awesome.

Pam Grier is an icon in the Blaxploitation genre. Everyone knows it! This movie is as good of a popcorn flick as any other. In hindsight, it's a bit cheesy here and there, but that's okay.

60% rating ... Pam Grier definitely shines in this film.

This action movie was great. Pam Grier, Kathryn Loder, Antonio Fargas, Peter Brown, Terry Carter, and the rest of the cast did a great job in this movie. The plot of the movie was action-packed, thrilling, and dramatic. It's about taking revenge on dirty people in a dirty way. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. It's worth watching.

As far as blaxploitation films go, there are quite a few that have Foxy Brown beat for creativity, impact, and cultural relevance. Much of the acting is poor quality (yes, even from Pam Grier), the story isn't particularly creative (a quickly rewritten Coffy sequel adapted for a supposedly original character), and the film definitely leans more toward pulpy action rather than commentary. Even among films of its genre and period, Foxy Brown attracted particular condemnation and discussion for its sexuality, violence, and stereotypical depictions of black culture. But a woman tells Foxy that she's "got a black belt in karate", after which Grier hits her in the face with a barstool. So I can hardly rate this one lower than three stars. (3/5)

(Pam Grier at her best) Pam Grier stars as Foxy Brown who gets revenge from the mob after her former government agent boyfriend is gunned down and killed. This movie is one of the best films of the 1970s. The directed did well directing the cast and the action. The script is amazingly written and if this movie didn't get any golden globes or Oscars, including academy awards it should have. The story is very well told the music score has great action tunes and sets everything up for the action scenes. This movie is a little graphic in the nudity category but it's not as bad as the R rated movies made now a days. This is one of the movies that came out when my parents were kids and this is a great movie to pass down to younger generations when they become adults. This movie is very entertaining and I enjoyed everything that this me gave me, a great story, edge of your seat action scenes and the question what is gonna happen next. Greatly made and I recommend it for everyone to watch. This is just as good as the first movie I saw her in which was, Jackie Brown which is directed by Quentin Tarantino.

Pam Grier is a Franchise!!!

Sweaty, trashy, and downright fun blaxploitation flick.

Pamela Grier in a Blaxploitation camp film from 1974. Pamela Grier had such a presence that seeing in action is always a treat. Kathryn Loder appears as the villian in a rare opportunity to see, and hear, her act. Time travel and see this film.

This film is much more harshly criticized than "The Big Doll House" which is not as good a film. But while "The Big Doll House" was good for its "kind" of film, Foxy Brown is just adequate for the kind of movie experience it represented.

Inane dialogue, off the hook ebonics and cliche black references (even a mention of MLK pops up), terrible acting, gratuitous sex and violence. Need I go on? It did provide some great laughs, like the cliche red neck music at the crack house. Not even rednecks listen to that crap. Good times

A classic. Must see blaxploitation film. One of the best.

Great piece of 70s movie history

The best movie character ever portrayed: Pam Grier as the title character!

As blaxploitative as they come, but Grier is such a force that the more problematic elements are easy to overlook when she's commanding the screen.

Sexy, stylish and pleasing. A great little gem of a film

A pretty much perfect exploitation film. There's so many different kinds of fun on display here, it's impossible not to like. And oh man, the one liners...
