“Oh how I wanted to like this movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt has all the ingredients to be great. Charismatic lead actress, cool name, main theme tune. A good set up for lots of action.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWe could have had another Foxy Brown here with Lady Cocoa.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBut alas, it was not to be.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBecause Lady Cocoa herself is such an insufferable, awful, loud-mouthed know-it-all that within 30 minutes I was wishing sheu0026#39;d just get shot already.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eRarely have I seen such an unlikeable main character in a Blaxploitation movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLola Falana has the acting chops and charm to be an excellent lead. But the script writers confused arrogance for confidence, quoting philosophy like itu0026#39;s scripture for intelligence, and a nasty mean-streak a mile wide for charm.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNo wonder we never got a Lady Cocoa sequel. No one in the entire world would ever want to see this awful character ever again.”
