JOE BULLET - A Day For Night Review
A review by @forrisday
Joe Bullet, the ladies love him and men fear him.
Joe (Ken Gampu) is the hero of the movie “Joe Bullet.” It was released in 1973, and has an all African cast and was banned by the apartheid government when it was originally released. It is a low budget film but a fun one to watch.
The story revolves around the main character, Joe Bullet, as he battles the bad guys to try to rescue two star players of the soccer team, The Eagles.
Without these two players the championship soccer game, which is only one week away, will probably be a loss. The players have been kidnapped by corrupt gangsters who want to change the outcome of the championship in their favor. Can Joe find the players and defeat the criminals? He'll have to put all his martial arts skills to use and hopefully have a bit of luck as he's attacked by assassins, fighters, and booby traps.
The movie has all the elements you would expect in a 1970s low budget flick. Misaligned audio, bad acting, and cheesy effects, but of course these are what make these films so darned fun and enjoyable to watch. Interestingly, it may be the soccer aspect of the film that may turn off an American audience as soccer isn't as huge here as it is in other countries although I believe the sport is gaining momentum.
The film has been restored on this DVD and the picture quality is great. The audio is misaligned at times, but that was original to the film as I assume much of the dialog was overdubbed in post-production. I really enjoyed watching Abigail Kubeka as Joe's love interest Beauty. She sings, isn't afraid of anyone and, well, is easy on the eyes. Don't tell Joe Bullet I was looking at her though. He'll kick my ass.
Cheesy? Sure. Bad actors? An abundance. Is it worth a watch? Heck yea!
