    I think people were ? because it looked like a Will Smith movie but we were tricked into watching a Jaden Smith flick

    Plus the 2 did a big press tour to promo the film and we all found out what a ? weirdo Jaden is

    I might be in the minority w/ this, but I thought that movie looked boogie (wack) as ? jus from the previews alone!

    All I saw was Will in a crashed ship w/ a helmet on talkin' and Jaden nature hiking around a post apocalyptic earth while his Daddy is tellin' him don't be scurred.

    I was not moved.

    that's the reason why I never saw it either. It didn't look good to me.

    All the work Spike Lee has put in and this is the thanks he gets.

    Peele off of Get Out(which I fell asleep on) has Spike Lee riding his coattails.

    HOW!!??

    I agree though. Last brilliant movie Spike has made was Inside Man which was in '06? That's a decade of flops and average looking flicks




    However I personally liked his interpretation of Oldboy



    He makes brilliant documentaries too. Like the ones on Michael Jackson's Bad album and Kobe on court

    Nah... even Josh Brolin said Spike's vision was dope and the studio ? up by cutting a lot of film. That's why he didn't name it a 'joint'..

    He's past his prime...

    Peele made a nuanced film that made a huge impact...

    Lee's style is very heavy-handed (dare I say "preachy"...) which was suited for the movies he made in the 80s... now, not so much...

    Although I'd love for him to prove me wrong, I've given him plenty of chances already to do so...

    ? makes one film compared to Spike who has made multiple impact films.

    ? ain't adding up. Especially for you to say Spike is heavy handed with his message which ain't suited for now. I would actually disagree. With as many mindless "let them cook" don't care about nothing but money ass ? running around now. A heavy handed message is more needed now.

    Massive Spike fan here. I try to catch everything he drops. Flop or not... I'd say I'm more into his filmmaking style especially the 'moving doll' technique

    Spike Lee is on Larry Holmes status ,the way he directs doesn't mesh with today's audience. Watch if this movie gets terrible reviews fans are going to blame Spike Lee.

    Yeah the docs have been his saving grace for the last 10 years. the 2 you named, the 2 on NO/Katrina, and the MJ Off The Wall one.

    Ride them coat tails Spike

    His career was in need of a jump start

    Spike got some of my all time favorite movies, but I gotta c/s this. He been shaky lately and Peele being involved is a big reason why this could be interesting.

    Shakey lately?

    He been trash for 10yrs

    But cosign how great he was in the 90s

    Crookyln
    Clockers
    Do the Right Thing


    3 of my favorites of all time

    Throw in School Daze and Malcolm X and that's my top 5 from Spike.

    His most impactful films were made almost 30 years ago...

    Yea, the message is needed, but how many let them cook ? gonna download let alone buy a ticket so Spike can talk (or shout) down to them?
