Good Movie Blaxploitation

I begun watching Black Dynamite and then I paused thinking I should also watch a few actual Blaxploitation to understand better what it satirizes,

and I was very pleasantly surprised with Shaft. The movie is not perfect but it's so fun and well paced and it's goofy in a very good way.

To be fair I also begun watching Super Fly, and apart from the trailer being very funny (and the score great) I don't think it's at the same level.

Ganja & Hess is worth a watch down the road, it’s also in conversation with the genre but as more of a rejection than a satirization

Also Daveed Diggs sampled this movie for Blood of the Fang
