Billy Dee Williams stars as Johnny Johnson, a young black man with a promising future and an impatience for racism. This gets out of control when the job he applies for is given to a less qualified white man. As a result, he joins a radical civil rights group, and takes matters into his own hands through a violent revolution and ultimate confrontation with police.

Not for Billy Dee Williams fans, Not Blaxploitation

First of all, I wouldn't categorize this flick as a Blaxploitation flick as many sites on the internet do. It is a drama built on race and racism which may have targeted a black audience upon its release, but it simply isn't as polished and as "BOOMING" as most blaxplotation movies. In fact, It feels like a heavily funded student movie, and probably was something like that as in the title credits there is mention of a grant given to the film maker from the American Film Institute. The movie starts off with a pretty intense scene/montage of the black ghetto and a war between blacks (as youths in the ghetto) and whites( as policeman in the ghetto). The funk/soul music is pumping and the movie is setting out to be big. In fact I was watching it at night and got quite excited for a great movie, as in this scene there are babies crying, chanting of amendments, shootings, blood, etc. But oddly enough, I should have finished it there. Aside from some interesting conversations on black oppression (particularly between Billy Dee Williams character and his mother), which still exists today, highlighting a pro-white stance vs. an against-white stance, This movie was not a good one. For Billy Dee Williams fans, there is really nothing to see here. He doesn't shine spectacularly (for his character his not well-developed) and don't expect to see the beginnings of the great Lando. In this movie Billy Dee, just is.
