She's black, beautiful and six feet two inches of sexy cool. She's Cleaopatra Jones—and when she goes after lawbreakers, Cleopatra gets them with her lethal combination of karate kicks and kung fu chops. Tamara Dobson stars as the CIA agent in pursuit of a narcotics ring headed by Shelley Winters. —from the Outer Max description of Cleopatra Jones
cleopatra couldn't really kick butt because she'd mess up her outlandish 70's fashions, including big furry hats and tight dresses with spangles. shelley winters gives a totally over the top performance as the lesbian leader of an inner-city heroin ring. —from a user's comment on IMDb
i've never seen a Cleopatra Jones film, but, from the descriptions above, this is definitely something to see. Shelley Winters as drug kingpin? ha!
