Force Four (1975)

I kind of liked this. A karate movie. Mostly Black cast. In the credits they list the actors and their belt rankings. A few were fifth degree black belts. I hope the one with only a first degree black belt didn't feel bad. One stunt man had a white belt.

I don't think there was any explanation for everyone knowing karate and no one shooting anybody. 

The fight scenes weren't dramatic, but there were no camera or editing tricks. In the '80's, when martial arts movies staged a comeback, that's how my friends and I judged them. We didn't like heavily edited fight scenes.

Made six years before the karate movie, Force: Five.

Four martial artists set out to retrieve a stolen African artifact.
