Movie Reviews of Buffalo Soldiers
Movie Review: A caracature of military life at the end of the Cold War
Summary: 4 Stars
I had never heard of this movie until it was recommended to me by somebody who was stationed in my unit in Germany. My basic reason for purchasing the movie was to see recent pictures of where I was stationed -- Siegelsbach Army Depot. I was a "Tower Rat" there with the 556th Military Police Co.
I found the movie to be a caracature of military life, and I found many of the situations a bit hard to believe, but there is such a thing as artistic license. Other reviewers have said that there is a "dark theme" to the movie, and I agree. HOWEVER, both my wife and I found the movie to be entertaining. This is not a movie for everybody, but I would recommend it especially for people who were stationed with the U S Army in Europe at any time during the past 30 years. You know, immediately after seeing this movie, I sent an e-mail to a friend in Cleveland and told him that he absolutely MUST see this movie.
Movie Review: zany military comedy
Summary: 4 Stars
Zany military comedy in the spirit of Sgt. Bilko or Gomer Pyle in which Joachim Phoenix plays an enlisted man, sprung from jail to join the Army,who pulls off an outrageous scam to enrich himself and also, worse still, romances the Sargeant's daughter, played by Anna Pacquin. Unfortunately, possibly because neither Ed Harris nor Scott Glenn can consistently sustain the comedic levels of Phil Silvers or the drill sargeant in Pyle, this film at times cannot decide if its comedy or drama. Still, for the most part, the film is hilarious and well worth the rental price.Movie Review: zany military comedy

Summary: 4 Stars
I recently rented this film from a recomendation of a friend. This film is extreamly well done, The story is amusing, acting is superb and it has dark comedy written all over it. The film does have its sad parts here and there but overall is a great comedy. I really enjoyed this Military comedy(or is it?)and the dvd is even great.
Put simply........ You gotta see Buffalo Soldiers...
4 out of 5
Movie Review: Awesome Movie
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie was great. Many things like this may go on in the armed forces that we don't know about. This movie gives the idea of how it is dealt with and how some people are just ignorant to the fact that something like this is going on at there base. I would recommend this movies to anybody. Don't go out and rent it buy it. Really awesome movie.
