While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Another typical ghetto story with a band of black teenagers searching out one of their own who killed a black police officer who apparently had an effect on the group as a whole. Of course, that effect was a positive one.The typical ghetto existence is depicted including the traditional black funeral for the slain officer.A 2 or 3 year old saw the horrific crime and spends much of the film running from the killer. The child's fear in his eyes basically tells the entire story.The n word is used constantly when the guys talk among themselves.The ending showed again the positive effect the officer had in preventing further violence.

I was born in 1964 and "Together Brothers" was one of the first movies I saw in The Fox Theater in downtown Detroit after riding the bus at the age of 10 yrs old. This movie has never left my memory. I bring it up in conversation with people who came up in the same era to see if they remember and I've yet to run across anyone who remembers the movie. I was in the movie theater with my oldest brother (only 4 years older than me) and I can remember being a little afraid because the movie was dark and "a bad man" was after a little boy. I also remember feeling a little pride (for a 10 yr old) in the boys for trying to find the man who killed the police officer. I've been trying to find information on the movie in order to purchase it. I've been all over the Internet but run into dead ends. The closest I come to any information is the sound track from Barry White and the Unlimited Orchestra. Is there anyone out there who can help me?

Having been a part of the Blaxploitation movie era, This is one of the few movies produced at that time that was a thriller, mystery and who done it. With a African American cast without portraying the young people as drug-runners, dealers or Junkies. It also portrayed them having have a positive relationship with law enforcement officers. I am starting a movement for an updated/remake of this movie. As a film editor and graphic artist I produced an updated poster as a basis for a remake of this movie topped with the soundtrack from Barry White and the Love Unlimited Orchestra...It is truly one of my favorites. Although the cast was completed with virtually unknown actors at the time. Although very dark. It was still very well acted out

Nothing new, but a well-executed chase/suspense/urban thriller. Has the feel of a late 1940s Hollywood on-location "street" film, with the European influence.Very watchable, enjoyable.
