Watch: Buffalo Soldiers 1997 123movies, Full Movie Online – Fact based story about the all-black US Cavalry Troop H which protected the Western territories in post Civil War times. The story focuses on the troops attempts to capture an Apache warrior named Vittorio who slaughters the settlers in New Mexico. The film examines the racial tensions that existed between the black soldiers and some of the white soldiers and the truths about the Indian invaders..
Plot: They’ve ridden dusty miles without end and fought fierce battles. Yet when these brave African-American cavalrymen enter a scraggly frontier town, they must walk through it instead of ride. The town dishonors them but the soldiers’ Native-American foes do not. Apache leader Victoria and other warriors give the horsemen a name of honor and strength: “Buffalo Soldiers”. The troopers’ daring hunt for Victorio frames this stirring tribute to the former slaves and other African-Americans of the 9th and 10th U.S. Calvary Regiments. Danny Glover, Mykelti Williamson, Glynn Turman, Carl Lumbly and Michael Warren star in an adventure bringing to light that largely unknown story and the unique moral dilemma the men faced. Atten-hut! “Buffalo Soldiers are riding” through town.

A different setting for the Civil War
I’m always up for watching a Civil War movie, especially when it seeks to educate audiences on lesser known facts that might not be found in all the classic textbooks. Buffalo Soldiers focuses solely on an all-black Cavalry unit, which I thought would be fascinating.

Rather than show any of the blue vs. Gray battles, the fighting in this movie is exclusively set in the Wild West. So technically, I got exactly what I asked for: you won’t find any of this in your textbooks. The setting and plot were interesting, and I appreciated all the characters’ frustrations that they weren’t allowed to participate in the “real fighting”, but there was too much graphic violence for my taste. Yes, I realized I was watching a war movie; but I didn’t find it entertaining to see an Indian child hanging from a tree.

With that disclaimer out in the open, if you think you’ll enjoy this tv-movie, give it a shot. You’ll see Danny Glover, Carl Lumbly, and Clifton Powell in the cast, and you’ll see a much different take on cowboys vs. Indians than you usually see in the movies.

DLM Warning: If you suffer from vertigo or dizzy spells, like my mom does, this movie might not be your friend. In the battle scenes, there is quite a bit of handheld camera movement, and it will make you sick. In other words, “Don’t Look, Mom!”

Kiddy Warning: Obviously, you have control over your own children. However, due to violence, I wouldn’t let my kids watch it.

little told American history
In the post-Civil War world, Texas Rangers track Apache war chief Victorio across the border to the federal New Mexico Territories. Sgt. Washington Wyatt (Danny Glover) leads the all negro US Cavalry H Troop. He arrests the Rangers for trespassing and murder. Commander Gen. Pike looks down on the colored troops and their command abilities. He puts southerner Maj. Robert Carr (Timothy Busfield) in charge despite his unwillingness to lead them. Col. Benjamin Grierson is a more supportive officer. John Horse (Carl Lumbly) is the native guide. Victorio is on the loose and on the attack.

This is an interesting and little told American history. There are compelling stories to be told. It would have been more interesting to have more diverse personalities in the colored troops. They are almost all stoic which leaves the group rather flat. I would also love to see the other side of the story from Victorio’s point of view. Of course, that may make it too complicated. This is still a very compelling TV movie.
