Two bad-ass dudes a generation past their prime, co-founders of the Rebels street gang in their salad days, return to their hometown of Gary, Ind., to kick the butts of their murderous successors. The slowness and thickness of Fred Williamson and Jim Brown underline the element of wishful fantasy -- a dual fantasy of regaining youth and reclaiming the streets. The reality is too grim, and too unsparingly depicted, for the movie to be pure and simple fun for blaxploitation buffs. With Pam Grier, Paul Winfield, Richard Roundtree, Ron O'Neal; directed by Larry Cohen. (1996) — Duncan Shepherd
