An outrageous yet interesting, funny and thrilling masterpiece that brings Spike Lee a glorious back to form

Rating: 10/10 (31 August 2018)

With Spike Lee's recent filmography making a disappointing and mediocre impression towards critics and audiences, BlacKkKansman is considered a glorious return to form for Spike Lee and without a doubt, one of the best films of the year and also a superior film that surpasses Spike Lee's other acclaimed films such as Do the Right Thing and Malcolm X. BlacKkKansman truly delivers an outrageous yet interesting true story that blends very well with funny one-liners and quips as well elements of comedy, in which that type of technique was previously used in The Wolf of Wall Street. Furthermore, it also adds a realistic yet accurate timely themes that tackles on the issue of racism, white supremacy, current events and divisive politics under Trump era that define the American perspective.
Apart from Spike Lee's masterful direction, this film is also defined by a shocking, compelling and riveting performances from John David Washington, Adam Driver and Topher Grace. Clearly, BlacKkKansman is a worthy film that allows an educational insight of showing America's current political moment as well the viewpoint of racial prejudices while at the time, making the film as funny and not as boring.
