There are several comic scenes even if the movie is dramatic and it offers a stunning picture of Jamaica during 1970. When local gangsters rip Horsemouth off and stop his music venture, his fellow musicians decide to rob the robbers. Rockers contains a cool ballad sung by Burning Spear and Horsemouth sitting on the beach at night time and a late Jacob Miller and his Inner Circle band are also seen performing a song about burning down the plantations for wealthy white tourists, who don’t have the slightest idea what the music is about. Most of Horsemouth’ s Rastafarian homeboys are played by reggae musicians since ”rockers” is another name for reggae, and their songs are integrated perfectly into the movie’s action.
