Review of Da 5 Bloods (2020) by Theotherone55 — 15 Jun 2020
I'm a Spike Lee fan...but I also understand he has HITS and big misses. Da 5 Bloods kinda fits into both. There are beautiful poetic parts in the film where you really appreciate Spike's views and artistic vision.
But there's also really poor plot points and bad scripting. It jumps back and forth between Jurassic Park/Forest Gump music to dial up late 90's cinematic emotion...and then gritty realness that make Spike's movies jump off the screen.
Overall, this should've been rewritten a couple more times. Entertaining, but throw this 2 years back before the rising racial tensions of today, this falls hard on its face.
