Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Lee cagily provides a litmus test for racial attitudes in 1989, but he does so by destroying the integrity of his characters, black and white.
– Richard Corliss,
TIME Magazine,
24 Apr 2009
fresh:
A powerful and persuasive look at an ethnic community and what makes it tick--funky, entertaining, packed with insight, and political in the best, most responsible sense.
– Jonathan Rosenbaum,
Chicago Reader,
26 Jun 2007
fresh:
The film -- at once stylised and realistic -- buzzes throughout with the sheer, edgy bravado that comes from living one's life on the streets. It looks, sounds, and feels right.
– Geoff Andrew,
Time Out,
26 Jan 2006
fresh:
Mr. Lee's movie is anything but minimalist. It is bursting with character, color, incident and music, including a militant rap number performed by Public Enemy.
– Vincent Canby,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
Comes closer to reflecting the current state of race relations in America than any other movie of our time
