Posse description Mario Van Peebles directed as well as starred in this ham-fisted, 1993 Western with a predominantly African American cast. The story finds a posse of black shooters (with one white member, played by Stephen Baldwin) taking on a racist sheriff and military man, but Van Peebles's effort at mixing convention with hip credentials gets pretty grating. (Tone Loc makes the worst cowboy in film history.) The film is also incredibly sexist, going well beyond the usual frontier-floozy clichés and lapsing into the sort of blatant exploitation one found at that time in rap-music videos. There are lots of cameo appearances from familiar folks willing to support Van Peebles on a project that probably sounded like a mix of experiment and event--Pam Grier, Isaac Hayes, Woody Strode, and the director's father, Melvin Van Peebles. But even they can't help. --Tom Keogh |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Izola's Movie Review: Posse |
| This is a GREAT movie. Not only is it action-packed, it also has a great plot (drama). Mario Van Peeples is perfect for his role.......it was a shocker that Big Daddy Kane could act. It is good to see a Western with African-Americans in it as not all African-Americans were slaves. This is also a good film to add to any movie collection. | |
