thiago s Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/22/25 Full Review rex w i disgusting piece of trash.

Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A disturbingly accurate rendition of the most horrible of times for Black people in history. I saw this as a child mainly because I was a huge Ken Norton fan, & always will be. He plays the "Mandingo," a specially trained fighter for gambling in those days. Norton does a tremendous job, almost a Natural in Acting at least in this, his first of only 2 films, the other being a similar Bomb called "Drum," again the title character, Norton. So this is worth watching not only for its brutally accurate historical value, but for the acting & especially the fight scenes which are awesome. Not for the young, under 16 audience, maybe even under 18. Disturbing, brutal, well directed & the great Ken Norton make for a very memorable, underrated classic, even in 2021. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review cinephile f I watched this film because it has been referenced in other films by two of my favorite directors (Solondz and Taranatino.) This is not a feel good film and I honestly found it very difficult to watch but I am glad I watched it so that I could see this perspective as well as see the source of the inspiration. I recommend watching it early in the evening (or earlier in the day) as I had a tough time sleeping after. Nonetheless, definitely worth watching if you are a cinephile who is interested in film history. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
