Movie Reviews of Posse

Movie Review: Ignore the negative reviews
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is a good one. Yes, it's educational. It deals with black issues such as REPARATIONS for slavery was never given, and how the same people who were against black folks being free were the same ones stealing land from the m. Van Peebles deals with this issue with ease and still manages to make a very entertaining movie as well.

If the movies was truly as bad as the reviewer attempts to make it out to be, why, in gods name would it be so expensive??

Summary of Posse

Mario Van Peebles directed as well as starred in this ham-fisted, 1993 Western with a predominantly African American cast. The story finds a posse of black shooters (with one white member, played by Stephen Baldwin) taking on a racist sheriff and military man, but Van Peebles's effort at mixing convention with hip credentials gets pretty grating. (Tone Loc makes the worst cowboy in film history.) The film is also incredibly sexist, going well beyond the usual frontier-floozy clich?s and lapsing into the sort of blatant exploitation one found at that time in rap-music videos. There are lots of cameo appearances from familiar folks willing to support Van Peebles on a project that probably sounded like a mix of experiment and event--Pam Grier, Isaac Hayes, Woody Strode, and the director's father, Melvin Van Peebles. But even they can't help. --Tom Keogh
