Good Cast but Poorly Directed
This film essentially begins with a New York City private detective known simply by the last name of “Hamberger” (Billy Dee Williams) being offered $100,000 by a rich man named “Alex Burton” (Dennis Hallahan) to kill his wife. Although he has no intention of doing going through with it, Hamberger accepts a down payment of $25,000 and then heads out to the house where the man’s wife lives. When he gets there, he tells “Sharon Burton” (Morgan Fairchild) of her husband’s murderous plans and, after spending the night with her, returns to his apartment. Not long after that he is arrested for the murder of Sharon Burton. However, upon being taken to the morgue he meets the real “Alex Burton” (now played by John Beck) and discovers that the body identified as being that of Sharon Burton is not the same woman he met at the house. And since his prints have been recovered from that house, he realizes that he has been set up. To that effect, he is given only a couple of days to find the real killer or be charged with the crime. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that-considering the cast-I honestly expected this to be a better movie than it actually turned out to be. As it was, the acting wasn’t that good and the plot was so completely unrealistic that it was nothing short of laughable. That being said, I cannot in good conscience rate this film any higher than I have. Slightly below average.

Thank God blacksploitation films are not longer being made!
Billy Dee Williams plays Hamberger, the rogue private detective who gets the girl(s) and solves the case. You really don’t need to know more, as this is the entire movie! Morgan Fairchild is still beautiful, even with the 80’s big hair look. The plot line had initial promise – Hamberger is approached by an unknown person to kill that persons wife. This person and the wife both turn out to be other than advertised, but there the story started to lose my interest. Gratuitous sex and violence have always been par for the course in Hollywood of course. Here, the obvious intent to sell tickets with this fare, as well as – admittedly – one of the hottest actresses of the time, soured me.
