Plot Summary
Blaxploitation icon Pam Grier stars as Foxy Brown, a sexy but streetwise woman whose ne'er-do-well brother Link (Antonio Fargas) is a drug dealer who owes mobsters 20,000 dollars. To get the hoods off his back, Link names Foxy's boyfriend as a government agent trying to wipe out organized crime, and the mob soon has him rubbed out. But Hell hath no fury like Foxy Brown scorned; posing as a hooker to get the inside scoop on the mob, she goes on a crusade to find out who murdered her man, and she exacts revenge with the help of a local activist group. The supporting cast includes cult figure Sid Haig as a bad guy (as usual) and Peter Brown and Kathryn Loder as a seriously kinky couple who rule the local mob.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Miss Grier is obviously durable but, unfortunately, is fast becoming a bore despite all the sex, brawls and gore in Foxy Brown.
Fresh: The film is dated, but its mixed message -- and its potential to offend virtually everyone -- still makes it a powerful discussion starter.
Rotten: Grier is an actress able to convey an amazing and unflinching strength, and she reveals the film for the dross it is.
Customer Reviews
Quality Entertainment!
I've gotta fever and the only cure is Foxy Brown. A confident and beatiful woman with an attitude. Watch out!
Corny? Yes. Campy? Yes. Awesome movie? OH YES!!
A lot of people complain that "Foxy Brown" is so over-the-top that no one in their right mind should want to see this movie. My response is that, as with "The Warriors" and other underground classics, those things are what make this movie great. Also, smokin-hot Pam Grier :) There's a reason for that whole conversation in "Resavoir Dogs"
Good movie!
This movie is HAWT! this movie RAWX! PAm is good, and all urban in this flick. This flick beats all others, except for RoboCop and Coffy. I went in a boy, and came out a man. Quoting the great Tony Tiger, This movie is GRRREAT!!!
