Review of Panther

Panther (I) (1995)
1/10
A silly and simplistic view of the Panthers
28 January 2004
Watching this movie had me on the verge of laughter and on the verge of anger. The laughter came from watching such poor acting and such a truly inane script. It is so funny to see the "totally good" Black Panthers and the "totally bad" white people do battle. Of course, the Panthers say things like "golly gee" and "nedo." It is funny. HOWEVER, it is also borderline revolting. Not to judge the Panthers, but they were a little more hardcore than this silly movie portrays them to be. They were much more militant and not quite the "goody goodies" Mr. Peebles so naively wants us to believe. It is actually somewhat insulting. This movie has the historical accuracy of a.....well, I am trying to think of something as inaccurate and can't do it.
