Featured review
I actually really enjoyed watching this film. Reading Maltin's review of this movie I came in with low expectations and the only reason I rented it was to see some nice T shots of Pam Grier. However I actualy found myself enjoying this film, it not Roots or anything but it's actually decent flick. The highlight of the movie is the dialogue of that Ignorant Country Hick Plantation Owner. I mean this guy is freak'n hilarious he would say stuff like "Yah know I likes big Titties" and "I found you in a Ho house and You Aint even a Hoe". I was laughing my ass off. Ken Norton's character Drum is pretty motionless but hell, he's plays slave who I must add were all brain washed to be seen and not heard. Plenty of T &A in this movie, Three types of crowds will like this film:
CROWD 1. If your sypathetic towards Blacks some scenes will piss you off but for the most part you'll be laughing like I was at those racist Southerners Ignorance.
CROWD 2. If your a T & A guy who doesn't care about Blacks plight but thinks behind closed doors thinks Black women are sexy as hell especially Pam Grier.
Crowd 3. Students of Film that are fans of slightly campy movies that have funny dialogue yet try to take themselves seriously.
