This review is from: Mutiny [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If a movie could be made about Rosewood, Florida, why not have one about the ship explosion that took place in the Bay Area in the 1940s? I hope someone makes a movie about the middle-class, Black town in Oklahoma that was also destroyed. I think Colin Powell's success in the military has made many forget how racist the United States military has been historically. This film captures how white military brass could care less if African-American enlisted men lived or died.

This movie was not as strong as "A Soldier's Story." It had much in common with "Tuskegee Airmen," though that too was a superior film. Still, if you like movies about African Americans in the military, then this may be for you. This film was filled with many unknown actors, but they had beautiful, chiseled chests. The ending was a bit anti-climactic, but it was following a true story, so I can't complain much.

I wonder if this was made for theaters or for television. It had a movie rating and followed trailers for other films. However, the film would stop at points which seemed like it was intentionally meant for commercial breaks.
