Micheaux Mission — Film Reviews
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. Welcome to the Mission!

Vincent and Len remember The Big Bopper because...somebody's gotta do it! Then they review A RAISIN IN THE SUN (1961), a film adaptation of one of the most acclaimed state works, that nearly stands up to the source material.

Get On The Bus (1996) Nov 18, 2020

Show notes

Spike Lee directs a love letter to the historic Million Man March of 1995 but it's the script by Reggie Rock Bythewood that crackles, allowing the all-powerful cast of Black men to rule the screen.

The Nutty Professor (1996) Nov 04, 2020

Show notes

Eddie Murphy scores his first hit of the 90s with the 1996 remake of the Jerry Lewis classic by batting leadoff all the way to the 8th slot, leaving Jada Pinkett nothing to do but hold her 'hat'.

(MATURE AUDIENCE) Best friend and actors Dorian Missick (For Life, ABC) and Omar Dorsey (Queen's Sugar, OWN) return to the Mission for a rollicking chat on Hollywood, Riunite, and more and, somewhere in there, they do a review of Rudy Ray Moore's PETEY WHEATSTRAW, the horror notch on Dolemite's pimp cane. -- recording straight from Streamyard.

Bones (2001) Oct 14, 2020

Show notes

The iconic Snoop Dogg is a tall charismatic blunt in director Ernest Dickerson's urban noir homage to 70s Black horror, complete with Pam Grier, seemingly dipped in amber. Too bad the same can't be said of the movie.

Da Sweet Blood of Jesus (2014) Oct 07, 2020

Show notes

Len and Vincent kick off Black Horror Month 2020 with the remake of an under appreciated and seldom seem 70's classic that could have been something special in the right hands. The original - Ganja & Hess - is special despite its flaws; DA SWEET BLOOD OF JESUS is just 'special.'
