    Black Ceasar

    Classic 70's movie. The movie is good but the soundtrack is why everyone raves about this movie.

    Great movie

    One of my favorite old school 70's movies . Fred Williamson is definitely under rated as an actor.

    Great print. Needed one extra.

    First off, this film is AMAZING! From the pacing, locations, acting, costumes, script, action and the tunes from Mr. James Brown; It's a perfect film. This transfer is beautiful. I just wish they had added the director commentary from the MGM DVD. Oh well. Too good to pass up.

    One of the great 70's Blaxploitation Films

    Great movie with tons of action and a thumping soundtrack by the Godfather of Soul himself, James Brown! A must-have for 1970's film buffs!
