by Bleav, Micheaux Mission
Vincent Williams and Len Webb have started an amazing journey to watch and review every African-American film released in theaters. Their passion project, the Micheaux Mission, honors Oscar Micheaux, a trailblazing Black filmmaker. Their enthusiasm and dedication are truly inspiring as they seek the perfect wine to pair with Pam Grier’s Coffy, find five movies since 1985 that don't feature Samuel L. Jackson, and connect with other film fans who share Len’s view on The Last Dragon. Their commitment to celebrating and examining African-American cinema is both commendable and uplifting.

Don't Play Me For Cheap (1973) + Legacy Reboots
Vincent and Len ponder the success rate of legacy reboots such as Bad Boys, What’s Happening Now, and King of the Hill. They share a brief glimpse into What They’ve Been Watching and go Six Degrees to 50 Cent and Aaliyah. Then, the Men of Micheaux settle in for separate views on writer-director Melvin Van Peeples’ Don’t Play Us Cheap, which begs the question - WTF? We're making video versions of our reviews!

MA RAINEY'S BLACK BOTTOM (2020) + PEABO REMEMBERED, A DIFF'RENT WORLD AGAIN, WHO HAS POE?
We remember Peabo Bryson, Phyllis Hyman, and Chadwick Boseman—all gone too soon, leaving behind legendary work, including Ma Rainey's Black Bottom. We also debate the merits of A Diff'rent World redux, the Philly bona fides of the late Pearl Bailey and Edgar Allan Poe, and the funky jazz of Charlie Brown.

CB4 (1993) + WELCOME TO THE CHARLIE MURPHY EXPERIENCE + MORE KHANDI PLEASE
The Men of Micheaux settle in to review 1993's CB4, marveling at the many gifts of Khandi Alexander on display and underutilized. They also remember what it was like to behold the Charlie Murphy experience for the first time and the understated brilliance of Phil Hartman and Chris Elliott. And then there's the Allen Payne of it all and, of course, Chris Rock. Before he was Chris Rock, he was Chris Rock. We're making video versions of our reviews!

Who’s Your Caddy (2007) + Is God Is, The Origin of LaToya
Vincent and Len debate the merits of a new way to determine the ‘blackness’ of a film, with an old friend coming home. Vincent is dazzled by the talented Kara Young as she burns up the screen in Is God Is and I Love Boosters. The Men of Micheaux try to break down the etymology of ‘LaToya’ (as in Jackson), and then, regretfully, they review 2007’s Who’s Your Caddy, which is perhaps the “Godfather” of the Don Michael Paul filmography.

Eve of Destruction (1991) + The Jacksons' American Dream, King Kong & Sexuality
The Men of Micheaux are asked to make more content on The Jacksons, and its the American Dream of Vincent’s life. What would the original King Long (1933) tell a traveling alien about our feelings on race and sexuality? Angela Bassett is one of Hollywood’s most acclaimed actors, but Len’s sister ain’t hearing that noise. Was the Roast Of Kevin Hart necessary? And how did Gregory Hines find himself at the EVE OF DESTRUCTION? We're making video versions of our reviews!

The Blind Side (2009)
Vincent and Len chat about their ideas for Black sci-fi movie composers, a classic film playlist for the 10-year-old, and compare Frankenstein, Radio, and Harry and the Hendersons to 2009's The Blind Side, which is a really, really, really, really bad Black movie.

MICHAEL mini-review 2, THE GOOD BIOPICS, BLACK ANIMATED CHARACTERS, DESTINATION PLANET NEGRO (review)
Vincent shares his thoughts on the phenomenon called MICHAEL (in theaters now, as if you didn't know); the Men of Micheaux list the great biopics that got the assignment right and determine the greatest Black animated character of all time. Then, they turn their attention to Destination: Planet Negro and appreciate the indie comedy's reach for the stars (or Mars). We're making video versions of our reviews!
