Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - BLKMOVCOL1
Story line was good. Happy to see a young Richard Prior at his best, as well as the other African-American stars at their peak during this time. The quality of the picture was'nt that great, but you need this in your collection if you are a serious collector of "Blackpotation" movies. Enjoyed it never the less



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Black Brigade review
I am a Stephen Boyd fan. Boyd did such a wonderful job acting the role of Masala in Benhur that I have tried to see all of his movies.

The strange thing about Black Brigade is that I purchased the movie because of Stephen Boyd, but I found the members of the Black Brigade team were equally inspiring.

This is a war movie. There were 12 black men acting under the charge of this white Officer. By the end of the movie, both the Officer and I were impressed by the characters the black men played. They were all 5 star actors. It was a good story played by a team of ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Interesting Movie, Decent Story, Great Cast!
(...)That alone is scary-- I knew it might stink, but with the cast list, I thought it might actually be OK, and it is. It's a HORRID DVD transfer though, but for 1 dollar I can't complain too much!

It's what I thought it was, a TV movie (originally aired on ABC) from 1969 written by TV mogul Aaron Spelling and Produced by the great Danny Thomas Productions, who produced such classic TV shows as The Dick Van Dyke Show, That Girl, The Andy Griffith Show, etc,.
This film stars Stephen Boyd, a great character actor/leading man known for his roles in such movies as 'Ben Hur' and ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - excellent movie...horrible transfer
I was curious about this movie primarily to see the comedic and cinematic development of a young Richard Pryor(pre the Toy and Superman 3 debacles)...the movie in my opinion DOES stand the test of time considering that it was made 34 years ago. There were some cool cameos(a young Paul Mooney in the background)and of course an ensemble cast of some heavy weight & familiar African american actors..i.e..Billy Dee Williams(starring in Brian's Song the following year), Moses Gunn, Rosie Grier, Glynn Turman and Robert Hooks(a superb actor and father of noted actor/director Kevin Hooks). Surprisingly, ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - I thought the movie was ok, for the time it was made.
due to the fact that it is an older movie, it has a good plot, story line and very good acting. it doesn't have the best of sound or the quility of a digial picture. which in point was part of the reason I didn't get into this movie as well as others. but it's worth 3 stars.
