4 out of 5 stars the king of blax. movies    December 4, 2008
E. robinson (atlanta, GA)
One of the first three blax. movies starting the year of 70. super movie


5 out of 5 stars How about ME?    December 19, 2007
Kevin Buckner (Washington, DC)
'Am I Black enough for you?' That was the question the Right, Righteous, Reverend, Deke O'Malley asked of the people. I saw this when I was 14, in 1971 and have never forgotten it. Calvin Lockhart, Raymond St. Jacques, Godfrey Cambridge and the Drop-Dead Gorgeous...Judy Pace, made me sit in the State Theater and watch this at least 4 times running...right on my brother...Right On!!!

The cameo by Redd Foxx gave it a sense of legitimacy too, because as cool as he was, he was comfortable playing a junk man...didn't forget where he came from.

3 out of 5 stars Semi-bore    July 19, 2007

Pauline Kael was raising this film to a pedestal, claiming that it was a milestone of a so called "soul movies", exited with its humor and gusto.
Well, one thing is sure: Afro-American ladies are really good-looking,
guys are kinda interesting, there is some announcement of a
"Super fly - Shaft" rocking gimmicks, but overall,it is semi-bore movie
despite some surprising scene-solutions I've never seen before.
Look up for the sequel, "Come Back, Charleston Blue", that one shakes the floor.
Three stars with effort.



5 out of 5 stars Very funny movie.    July 11, 2007
Eric Robinson (DETROIT, MI)
One of those 70's classic films that is a must have in your dvd collection. It would be nice if they could release the sequel to this movie. "Come Back Charleston Blue" was just as good. I wonder what are they waiting on?
