(Offensive word in title but this movie is also known as Boss and The Black Bounty Killer)

The black man in this movie is the hero, it's not racial in the way most reactionaries react although the movie uses the N word in it's title.

On its initial release, Vincent Canby of The New York Times described Boss ♥♥♥♥♥♥ as "a pleasant surprise if you stumble upon it without warning". Canby characterized Williamson's acting as "an immensely self-assured parody of the Man with No Name played by Clint Eastwood in Sergio Leone's films".[5] Canby concluded his review by highlighting what made Boss ♥♥♥♥♥♥ notable among black Westerns: "Most black Westerns either ignore race or make it the fundamental point of the movie. Boss ♥♥♥♥♥♥ somehow manages to do both quite successfully."


Jack Arnold seems to have been artiste exécutant on this picture; content-wise, we must regard Fred Williamson as the film’s auteur. He is like a black Clint Eastwood in a Cottafavi western. William’s bounty hunter turns the table on the town’s white establishment with an intelligent and biting wit. He is very popular in the nearby Mexican village and is generous to its inhabitants—a kind of cinematic third-world unity. From an ideological standpoint, it is interesting to note that the only white male who turns out to be worth much is the blacksmith, a simple, honest tradesman.

Rush Hour is one of the funniest films ever, I also love both Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan, excellent comedians.
