The movie explores the world of Super fly, the big time drug dealer who wants out. But his scheme is been noticed he is compelled to work with some corrupt narcotic officers.
O'Neal functioned as a suave but deadly post-Poitier antihero for an increasingly militant urban audience...

Gordon Parks Jr. was one of the greatest casualties of the collapse of blaxploitation cinema, a director with a distinctive, tightly packed visual style nd a remarkably bitter vision for this supposedly escapist genre.
Classic blaxlpoitation film is still one of the best to come out of the genre. O'Neal gives a fine (but always funky) performance in one of the last movies before the genre ate itself and became self-parody. Terrific soudtrack.
