Review of BlacKkKlansman (2018) by Bilge Ebiri for Village Voice — 15 May 2018
It’s alternatingly comic, heroic, tragic, horrifying, ridiculous, dead serious, clear-eyed, and confused; it shifts into moments of documentary and even essay film, but it’s also one of Lee’s more entertaining and vibrantly constructed works.
I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a movie exploit its tonal mismatches so voraciously and purposefully.
