Black Power is an all Black XXX flick that harkens back to the late '70s and early '80s. Just like the Blaxploitation movies of the era, black XXX rated films were known for a similar cheesy B-movie status. Black Power in it's own weird way, recaptures that spirit.
Opening with well-known muscle stud Bobby Blake and a fan who Blake coerces to go back to his pad with his "buddy" Deon Blake so the fan can "get the Bobby Blake superstar treatment." The sucking scenes are hot, but the tools are not. And after some rough cuts, we cut to a rough fuck where our fan gets it doggie style by Blake and then Deon.
Later Blake and Deon are "hangin'" when two friends stop by, so it's back to the same execrcise room for some old and new oral positions. The two friends fuck each other with the most passion in the scene yet, then Deon takes a brief turn fucking them before we cut to some unconnected cum shots.
Our next scene is a totally unrelated sex segment poolside, sans pool. The dick being serviced here is as hard as they come. It's no wonder our sucker can't wait to ride this big black pole. The fucking that follows is all extreme close-ups for the most part.
Our movie's other superstar, Flex Gamble, is up to the same tricks as Blake, giving a potential model, Mocha, interviewing for a video the superstar treatment. Flex has a magnificent body and seems to be enjoying himself, even if he does just lay back being serviced and spends most of the time looking at something off-camera. A fuck scene again on all fours follows.Flex holds his man dick by the root, but it's still plenty huge to give a mean fuck.
Afterwards, Blake calls Gamble long distance, and the three goof on each other about who's the nastiest and baddest. As I said, this movie is bad in so many ways, it's kind of hot in a sleazy cheap way. The "posing'" dialogue between the models and how they swing all ways is very natural and obviously improvised, so much so we can't hear Blake at all over the phone. The budget is obviously cheap by the use of the same sets, and even the music is the same four chords throughout, as bad as it gets.
The actors are the most interesting. Blake with his boy, Deon, who uses the same last name, are clearly lovers but too tough to ever suck dick, get fucked or even use the term lover. Though all the model's dicks go up and down, are gay for pay (or whatever) and a little street worn, when they get into their sex, they are into it and even when distracted or looking high, they have that sleazy street quality so many people desire.

"Black Power" (1999), which boasts the considerable talents of Bobby Blake and (I think) was the debut performance of Flex Deon-Blake, has really great action, but poor technical aspects tarnish it. The editing has a tendency to be rough, the lighting is often too dull (especially for men with dark skin), and the direction is uninspired. Even so, the men in the cast give it their all, which helps a lot.
A three-way scene that puts lithe and cute Emilio Sands at the mercy of both Bobby and Deon gets things off to a good start, and the much-smaller Emilio shows he has what it takes to be a true power-bottom, taking turns deep-throating Bobby and Deon's large cocks and then giving his tight ass up for a pounding by both. Bobby and Deon do a lot of kissing and mutual cocksucking to fill out the scene, which ends with three impressive cum-shots, and Emilio grinning from ear to ear.
The next scene stars well-endowed stud Mocha and handsome Ken Taylor, who drop in on Bobby and Deon at their apartment. Ken ends up taking on all three of the other studs, who fuck his bubble-butt mercilessly after they get warmed up with cocksucking all around. The best part of the scene is watching Ken squirm when Mocha enters his ass, and watching Mocha pull him back onto it as Ken moans. Again, big cum-shots end the scene, with Ken in the middle as the other three blow their loads.
A booty call leads to a poolside encounter between thin-as-a-rail (but with a dick of death) Ace and his bud Bob Cat (love the name). Bob goes outside and strips down, oiling his hairy body in anticipation of the hook-up in a scene that drags on for far too long. We know it will take Ace time to arrive, but we shouldn't have to wait, too! Bob goes down on Ace, whose dick rises to immense proportions, and then Bob sits on Ace's dick and bounces on it, while the camera goes in for a too-tight close-up of the penetration. Ace cums on Bob after Bob squeezes out his load.
The last scene stars muscular Flex Gamble, who is paired with Mocha. This time, Mocha plays the bottom role for big Flex, whose body looks buff as hell. Mocha uses his mouth to taste Flex's bulges, paying extra close attention to his huge cut dick. Flex forces his rod deep inside Mocha's tight hole doggy, and Mocha is so turned on that he stays rock-hard while Flex is fucking him. The hunks switch to missionary, and again, Flex goes in deep, but unfortunately the camera misses the best part of the action -- the penetration shot. Flex and Mocha are side-by-side at the end, and Flex jerks off to a decent load, made all the more watchable by the way his abs and biceps flex as he's jerking. Mocha's climax is a gusher that leaves his pubes coated with cream.
It ends with some non-sexual stuff that is just filler. This isn't a total loss, far from it, but it would have been much improved with a bigger budget, one that could furnish the technical aspects that are so obviously lacking.
