Still Relevant
What year was this made again? 1994. Oh, I thought it was made 2020. That just goes to show how long there have been issues between Black folks and the police. Not that I needed “Glass Shield” to inform me of that. The ’92 Rodney King verdict was enough to wake me up.

“Glass Shield” is an upsetting movie. It taps the nerve center. Conspiracies and corruption always elicit a strong reaction–mix racial injustice in there and you have a real deadly brew.

John Johnson (Michael Boatman) was a wide-eyed rookie sheriff just added to the Edgemar station in L.A. County. He was the only Black sheriff, but he wasn’t going to let that upset his plans to become a cop.

His loyalties were tested when an officer Bono (Don Harvey) detained Teddy Woods (Ice Cube) at a gas station. Johnson backed up Bono and backed him up again later on in court. Teddy Woods was arrested and later charged with murder which would be the central part of the overall plot.

“Glass Shield” at its core is about police corruption and the “thin blue line.” It’s not far-fetched corruption that a sound-minded person could never fathom; it is corruption right in the wheelhouse of what has been seen from our various law enforcement agencies: mysterious inmate suicides, improper arrests, tainted evidence, racial bias, and more. “Glass Shield” is a rousing movie that will stoke the emotions, it’s unfortunate that it is still so relevant.

An insult to your intelligence!
I’m surprised this wasn’t a made for TV film! It has the look of a TV production, it was most likely video taped. The writing and direction is not up to movie standards. While they do have some veteran actors; they performances were tainted by poor writing. The writer decided that rather then rely on well written story with just a few of the points he wanted to make; he decided to throw every racism cliché into this one. And while the story is just plain silly; the poor direction leads to some pretty poor performances. I’m sure many of the actors in this film don’t list this as one they are proud of. We all know that there are abuses by law enforcement; but this writer/director is beating us over the head with this script. If your looking for a well written, well acted story that make you feel like you got your monies worth; avoid this film like the plague. Written at about a 4th grade level.
