This film falls right in line with other movies about women (or men) trying to make a living in high-risk sports such a wrestling or boxing, who are ultimately pawns of those hoping to make a buck off of them at any cost. Both intense rivalry and loyal friendship are prevalant in a world like this &#8212; themes which the imperfect but serviceable script takes ample advantage of. While we don&#8217;t learn quite enough about Welch&#8217;s desire to be a derby girl, it is clear that this is one way she can provide for her family and escape from small-town drudgery. Watch for Jodie Foster in a small role as Welch&#8217;s daughter, and Martine Bartlett as a judgmental parent anyone would want to escape from (who can forget her role as Sally Field&#8217;s abusive mother in <em>Sybil<\/em>?). <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Raquel Welch as K.C.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Welch.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Welch.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-40499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Welch.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Welch-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Welch-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Welch-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>An effectively seedy glimpse at fans and the sport itself<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Rolling.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Rolling.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-40498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Rolling.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Rolling-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Rolling-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Rolling-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-40500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers1.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers1-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers1-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-40497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers2.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers2-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers2-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Kansas-City-Bomber-Onlookers2-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nNo, but it&#8217;s well worth a look, and probably has a bit of a cult following. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Links: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0068795\/\">IMDb entry<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dvdtalk.com\/reviews\/16165\/kansas-city-bomber\/\">DVD Talk Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thespinningimage.co.uk\/cultfilms\/displaycultfilm.asp?reviewid=2237&#038;aff=13\">Spinning Image Review<\/a>\t<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1972\/08\/03\/archives\/instant-morality-kansas-city-bomber-stars-raquel-welch.html\">NY Times Original Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tcm.com\/tcmdb\/title\/1793\/kansas-city-bomber#articles-reviews?articleId=78135\">TCM Article<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re all used &#8212; you, me, anybody on two legs.
