Ain't all its cracked up to be

Rating: 7/10 (25 August 2006)

I'm being honest, the plot kind of jumps around a bit, and I am a spike lee fan also but this wasn't his best work. Denzel did a great job like always but it was just lacking something, not sure what but something..Jodie foster really sucked as a stuck up bitch, she played the part with no emotion. Clive Owen did well but 75% of the time hes hidden from the paint mask. What the hell were they digging that hole for? I just didn't understand it all and the ending was pretty cheesy... Do we really believe he just sat in that hole and sh* there for days? Then the dropping of the diamond? Too coincidental in my opinion. Did have high points like the fake killing and some twists but all in all 7 of 10 thats being honest..
