This is a well-crafted, mostly well-acted, satisfying 'Stick It To The Man' melodrama that has few real surprises, but which I found enjoyable anyway (after all, sometimes The Man needs to be Stuck). The brush strokes are broad here, at times perhaps crossing the line into stereotypes, but there's a good job done at the beginning bringing the characters to life, so that you end up caring about their story. Especially good are Roger Guenveur Smith in the lead role and Allen Hamilton as the primary villain; supporting cast is, well, supportive, with Joe Minjares adding some wry humor. Best of all, despite the film's serious message: the injustice of racial oppression, it avoids getting too preachy (a common failing in the SITTM genre), telling the tale with a pretty deft touch and some humor. Minor quibble: the ending unfolds hastily; don't let your attention stray in the last 10 minutes. Overall, a solid film with some thought-provoking points and a satisfying Good Triumphing Over Evil story.
