Leave your thoughts about The Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution.
| The New York TimesA.O. ScottWhat is clear from this sober yet electrifying film is that the power of the Panthers was rooted in their insistence — radical then, radical still — that black lives matter. |
| Film Journal InternationalMaria GarciaAn expertly edited mosaic of the political party. |
| The PlaylistKatie WalshIt’s clear that the Panther legacy lives on, and Nelson’s film is a necessary primer for understanding the party — in it’s own words. |
| Salon.comAndrew O'HehirWhat we see in Stanley Nelson’s urgent and necessary documentary The Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution is the story of an organization that meant many different things to many different people, and that changed so dramatically during five years or so in the national spotlight that it could almost be described as reshaping itself month by month and putting forward a distinctive face at almost every moment. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsIt's a strong reminder of the times, then and now. |
| RogerEbert.comOdie HendersonThe film avoids hagiography, and in doing so, brings out the undeniable humanity of its subjects. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzThere's still a crisis in black-white relations, which makes this film timely. |
| Monsters and CriticsRon WilkinsonAlthough there is not time to tell the whole story, this is a powerful film with a lot of lessons, none of them easy. |
| SF WeeklySherilyn ConnellyThe Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution covers all the important bases, while also suggesting other places for future documentarians to go. |
| San Jose Mercury NewsKaren D'SouzaThe documentary connects the past and the present so forcefully that we see our own reflection in the struggle to bring power to the people. |
