Review of Honeydripper (2007) by Tomaszw. — 03 Jan 2008
Honeydripper is an embarrassing failure on many fronts mercilessly exposing Sayles's deficiencies as a director and a total lack of talent as a writer. It's sluggish and painfully predictable in plot development, handicapped by wooden acting (best represented by a zombie performance of Danny Glover) and stagey sets, and poisoned with grating racial and cultural stereotypes.
The story has unbreachable holes, characters lack reasonable motivations, and the whole film looks like a an expensive high school show.
