Pluskylang Great Film overall

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The_Colonel I saw this when it first came out and liked it. Probably because I love westerns and westerns about the cavalry. So when I saw it available on DVD under the title of "The Buffalo Soldiers", I had to have it. When I watched it I couldn't believe that I liked such schlock! Terrible! Saw that it was filmed at the actual Fort Davis in Texas, but that didn't help the lousy script, acting, directing, filming, editing and whatever else there is to rate. The actual Buffalo Soldiers must be rolling in their graves at this one. What an embarrassment. Save your money and bypass this piece of garbage! If you want to see a better movie about these heroes called Buffalo Soldiers, get yourself a copy of Danny Glover's film. Yeah, yeah it ends on a lame note, but it is sure better than this waste of film!

Bill Goode I have never seen such a film that has so little value as this version of Buffalo Soldiers. The black soldiers that operated in the American West after the Civil War deserved better than this.This film had no plot. The acting was extremely poor. There was no character development. It was mis-cast. The costuming of the Indians was extremely poor. The songs were really poor; it would have done better without such boring songs. Where do they find such lousy composers? The Indians were dressed in modern clothing made to look ragged. They had headbands that were obviously recently color dyed for the film.Cesar Romero is a fine actor, but it is pretty unreal to find a Latin officer in the US Army defending the US border with Mexico. Barbara Hale plays his wife. She took her part pretty insincerely. I agree with her, as no one could take this film seriously. 1/10

Wizard-8 Surprisingly, though its packaging might make you think this is an exploitation movie, this western (concerning the real-life Buffalo Soldiers) actually takes itself very seriously, despite instances concerning action and sex. Though the movie had serious intentions, it feels like it was made by exploitation filmmakers, and the movie still has a weird feeling of exploitation to it (possibly due to the low production values.) It isn't very compelling, but it may have enough curiosity value for fans of drive-in movies of the time.
