    Smh and Spike tried saying he was the lead actor in this s***

    Nah, nowhere near so

    Denzel is pretty much in every single scene in this

  • Misfit

    princess nokia and ice spice both had scenes with Denzel and didn’t stick out as non actors

    nah the ice spice scene was weird as hell with the camera cuts and her acting

    The marketing for this was awful. I can’t believe the first Spike Lee & Denzel Washington collaboration in almost 20 years wasn’t made more of a big deal by the studios behind it

    Spike said he wants to work with Chalamet next whenever his schedule allows it, the studios will probably make a big deal outta that one for sure

    Word at the time we didn’t know. We speculated on Rocky playing the kidnapper but we didn’t know if Spike was gonna make his POV the main POV since he said “Rocky is the lead”

    “When pressed, Lee wouldn’t lift the lid too much about plot points but he did say that rapper A$AP Rocky has “the main role” in the film. Rapper Ice Spice will also have a role in the film.”

    He’s basically a voice acting role for the first hour and a half. He has only two actual real scenes in the whole thing, both are about 5-6 minutes each if I recall correctly. He’s okay in it, he’s pretty much just playing a very stylized and hyperbolic version of himself

    Also I’m guessing this s*** dialogue heavy then

    @twitch one thing I’ll say though just be prepared for the score to be playing basically during every single scene in this. I’m seeing some negative reviews online for the film and that’s almost all of their main criticism for it. I enjoyed that aspect of it, it reminded me of an older style of filmmaking that we don’t really get anymore, but I can definitely understand why someone would be turned off by it

    It’s ight. Really shines in some parts, and just sloppy in others

  • Aug 16, 2025

    this was a solid 8.2 . it felt like a 90s movie set in todays time if that makes sense . i had fun

  • Aug 16, 2025

    that scene where his son was saying he was getting clowned on “black twitter” was supposed to be deep but that s\*\*\* was funny as hell to me

  • Aug 16, 2025

    I absolutely loved this. Over the top and audacious in a way only Spike Lee can do.
