I saw "Brother John" on late night TV in the late 70s, and it is a delight to own the DVD.Movie Review: A quietly good movie with Sidney Portier
Summary: 4 Stars
I have always liked this movie from the first time I saw it. I was so very happy to add it to my video collection,as I haven't seen it on T.V. or cable.You can tell it was new actors learning their craft and doing it well. Paul Winfield and other future "Stars". WOW.Movie Review: Brother John? Oh, brother! :-(
Summary: 2 Stars
Even though I have not seen all of Sidney Poitier's movies, I've seen many of them, as well as owning about a dozen of them. I have always been a big fan of his, and some of his movies are among some of my all-time favorite movies, BUT ... this movie just isn't one of them. :-( When I became aware of it's existence just a few weeks ago, it looked like it might be very enjoyable. But, after watching it, I was pretty disappointed. I don't normally review movies since I think a person has to find a reviewer that they know has similar tastes in movies, if that person's reviews are going to be very useful to the people reading them. But, when Amazon sent me a request to review this one, I just felt that I needed to tell fans of Sidney Poitier's movies to see this before you buy it, else you may wish (like me) that you hadn't purchased it. I'm not saying that it is terrible, but it's certainly far from being comparable to some of his classics, such as "To Sir, With Love", "In The Heat Of The Night", "A Patch Of Blue", "Lilies Of The Field", etc.
