Inviting casual comparison to Catch-22 and M*A*S*H, Buffalo Soldiers is an Army-base comedy about soldiers "with nothing to kill except time." It's 1989: The Berlin Wall is falling, completing the cold war's thaw, and Ray Elwood (Joaquin Phoenix)--a clerk with the 317th Supply Battalion, stationed in West Germany--combats boredom with a variety of black-market schemes, from cooking heroin for the base's corrupt MPs to dealing stolen arms to the highest bidder, in addition to having a shallow affair with the two-timing wife (Elizabeth McGovern) of his outgoing commander (Ed Harris). Elwood's new CO (Scott Glenn) clamps down on his illegal activities while protecting his daughter (Anna Paquin) from Elwood's advances. Fine casting and positive buzz couldn't prevent this movie's ironic fate: Acquired by Miramax one day before the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Buffalo Soldiers--based on the celebrated novel by Robert O'Connor--was shelved for nearly two years, by which time this dark and defiantly amusing exercise in political incorrectness had been overshadowed by world events. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews of Buffalo Soldiers (2001)

A caracature of military life at the end of the Cold War
I had never heard of this movie until it was recommended to me by somebody who was stationed in my unit in Germany. My basic reason for purchasing the movie was to see recent pictures of where I was stationed -- Siegelsbach Army Depot. I was a "Tower Rat" there with the 556th Military Police Co. <

>I found the movie to be a caracature of military life, and I found many of the situations a bit hard to believe, but there is such a thing as artistic license. Other reviewers have said that there is a "dark theme" to the movie, and I agree. HOWEVER, both my wife and I found the movie to be entertaining. This is not a movie for everybody, but I would recommend it especially for people who were stationed with the U S Army in Europe at any time during the past 30 years. You know, immediately after seeing this movie, I sent an e-mail to a friend in Cleveland and told him that he absolutely MUST see this movie.


WRONG TITLE
THE ONLY THING I SEE WRONG WITH THIS MOVIE IS THE TITLE BUFFALO SOLDIERS. WHY WOULD THE PRODUCER OF THIS FILM DISHONOR THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN ARMY MEN WHO ORIGINATED THE NAME BUFFALO SOLDIER. HE COULD HAVE CALLED IT DUMB SOLDIERS. THIS MOVIE POISONS THE MINDS OF YOUNG PEOPLE WHO THOUGHT BUFFALO SOLDIERS WERE GOOD ARMY MEN WHO DID THEIR MILITARY JOBS WELL. WOULD IF I MADE A MOVIE CALLED TOP GUN, AND SHOWED YOU HOW SUBURBAN WHITE KIDS SHOOTING UP A HIGH SCHOOL IN COLORADO. AND WHATS REALLY SAD IT'S THAT NATIONAL CABLE TV WILL NOT SHOW DANNY GLOVERS BUFFALO SOLDIERS MOVIE. I SERVED IN THE ARMY AND THE MARINE CORPS, SO CAN YOU UNDERSTAND WHERE I AM COMMING FROM?


A fun diversion
This movie is interesting if you arfe stuck in the 80's like I am. It is an interesting tale of how things are not always quite the way they seem - the different personalities in the film have conflicts over the different priorities of their lives - playing one role but are doing other things that seem to against what they are doing.
