This Movie Is The Best Movie Spike Lee Ever Made-End Of Story!

Rating: Null/10 (11 June 2006)

This movie is so much better than anything Spike Lee has ever done-with maybe one exception-although the story could have been tightened up and shortened (delete the Denzel/Hooker scenes) it still hits the mark with all pistons pumping full blast. Anyone that says this movie lacks heart or does not have a story to tell does not know anything about movies. Spike Lee has a story to tell here-and he tells it with amazing commitment.
Ray Allen puts on such a top notch performance in the pic that I am shocked I have never seen him again since, although being an NBA superstar might have something to do with that.
Denzel, what can you say, he kicks ass. His role is one where you think he is a big bully, but under the bully mentality is the goal of building a better life for his kid. Did he make mistakes in life-yes....is he still making mistakes while out of prison furlough-yes....but there is more to his role than that-and Denzel hits the mark.
Fantastic movie.
