Review of Black Caesar (1973) by Daniel H — 04 Jan 2008
Fred Williamson is one of the best actors of the Blaxploitation era, and his performance here is on par with his other work.
As a spin-off film, taking previously made plots and story hooks, and incorporating all-black casts for marketability, the film is a success, drawing nicely on mob and crime films of the era. As anything but Blaxploitation, the film adds nothing new to the easily-executed crime genre. Standard and forgettable when taken out of its niche.
