Help with action movie sterotype.


I need a list of any and all action movies or tv shows that feature a "Angry Black Police Captain" I know there are many but all I can think of off the top of my head is Beverly Hills Cop. Anybody got some titles out there??


Thanks!!

His screen time is very limited, but how about Loeb in Batman Begins? He may not be the exact stereotype you want, but I thought I'd throw it out here.





The man I loved - the man who vanished - he never came back at all. But maybe he's still out there, somewhere. Maybe some day, when Gotham no longer needs Batman, I'll see him again.

Throw Chi McBride's name into the IMDB, and that's probably half of what comes back.

Beverly Hills Cop - Axel Foley's [Eddie Murphy] boss, Inspector Douglas Todd [Gilbert Hill]. A little bit of trivia, Hill actually was a police officer in Detroit.
