Tisk... Tisk... Tisk should be the title of the new Jim Brown movie.

Not just an earnest race drama, but also a fascinating example of how social issues were addressed cinematically in an earlier era.

Audience Reviews for Tick...Tick...Tick...

Oct 16, 2009

Good drama movie about racism.This film is very under rated due to it's message hitting hard with few punches pulled.Brown gives a very good performance here and so do all the other actors.I like the cinematography color here,very crisp and eye pleasing.The screenplay is a little bland but does not ruin the movie at all.Not for people who do not like seeing the truth about the ugliness of prejudice and corruption from BOTH races.....

A true classic from the sevanties...captures to glory of segregation back in the days... I saw this again on VHS recently...an old guy that had a whole lot of classic cinema stuff, let me see it...You have got to see this...so you can FEEL how stupid racism is. Get it..if you can FIND it!
