Review of Mandingo (1975) by Jack S — 23 Oct 2011
Rather macabre, sensationalist Blaxploitation melodrama set in the Deep South during the slavery era. Not surprisingly, the Southern plantation owners are portrayed in the worst light and James Mason is fantastic as the patriarch.
Yet the movie is entertaining and interesting and unintentionally very amusing as long as you don't take it too seriously.
