Adventure / Kung-Fu Comedy starring Jim Kelly who is not even trying to be funny because yeah, his acting skills were kind of limited. This one is about a group of friends on a rescue mission somewhere in Asia trying to find a kidnapped woman. They do eventually find her but along the way they are under constant attack by bad guys in odd costumes.
My personal highlight of utter badness involved a small toy police car confusing the hell out of goons during a big fight scene. Another favorite corny scene shows our male heroes getting it on with the females all at the same time, including a brief close up of one of the ladies shaking her head from side to side in PG-rated ecstasy.
The comedy is very silly and never funny. The soundtrack is intentional goofy. The fight scenes are well choreographed. In a nutshell: Hot Potato is dumb and bad but still sort of entertaining.

sounds good. no wait, sounds bad :teddyr:.
saw a good trailer for black belt jones on you tube in that montage a while back, was pretty funny
I picked up that 4 pack a little while back. Hot Potato is so bizarre and so awesomely bad at times.
I read somewhere that Jim Kelly is now a tennis pro at a club. :teddyr:

Yep, he's become quite the tennis player and teaches mostly famous people how to play from what I've gathered.
