The Last Good Spike Lee Movie
Q: Who can tell me what was the last "good" movie Spike Lee has made so far?
A: For one,I saw only half of "She Hate Me",and to me it was a disappointment.
Other words,stupid in my book. It was in the theatres where in my opinion no one went to see it,the reason? No one isn't going to cough up over $10.00 to see a really bad film,think about it since the night I saw it with a all-white audience in a small arthouse theater,no one really care about the story about a brother getting some dykes pregnant,and with that said they walked right out the cimema right after me. It is out on video by the way and I would love to see this in the unrated version instead of the "R" rated one. But lets face it: Only a few good Spike Lee films were absolutely brilliant in my book and the ONLY movie that struck a chord with its audience and to some of Spike Lee's critics was the movie version autobiography of "Malcolm X",which was one of his best films ever made by those who thought the film was an inspiration.
