Super Fly
Super Fly is a cocaine dealer who begins to realise that his life will soon end with either prison or his death. He decides to build an escape from the life by making his biggest deal yet, converting the coke to cash and running off to start a new life. The problem is that the Mob does not have a retirement plan and will give him a choice of staying and selling for them or dying if they find out his intentions. With a terrific score by Curtis Mayfield and a star wearing threads to match, 'Superfly' is chock full of the sass, flash, and action Blaxploitation is known for.

Under polished but worth a look.
As much as I agree with some of the reviews on here, the editing is at times laughable and the acting skills of some of the central charachters are below par. ... read more »

Super fly
Low budget with schoolboy error editing. A complete waste of time and wouldn't recommend it to any one.

A Classy Semi-Amateur Film
This film has an amateur edge and a realistic dialogue, and has amazing style. My only complaint would be that some of the less important actors are not very ... read more »
