Denzel Washington does a great job of portraying the lead detective charged with negotiating with bank robbers holding a large group of hostages who hide their true intended targets in ambiguity so as to keep the police off balance.
The hostage takers' actions appear on the surface to be different than the interpretation that the police initially ascribe to them. The situation is further c... read more

Inside Man, directed by Spike Lee is an insanely clever movie and it is one of those open-ended films which encourages you to choose a side and come up with your own theories on who is right and who is wrong. It almost follows the same vein of Rashomon and is like a modern re-telling of Dog Day Afternoon or at least that's how I saw it. It's an impressive movie to boot with a great cast and great ... read more

I already saw this movie but since it was such a long time ago, I was quite eager to check it out again. First of all, I always had a weak spot for Spike Lee's work and I'm so glad he made recently a nice come-back with 'BlacKkKlansman'. However, during the previous 10 years, Lee really struggled and this movie was his last commercial and critical success. Indeed, first of all, there was a reall... read more

"10.8. Netflix Uusintakatselu. Tämäkin viimeksi teatterissa ja ihmeen hyvin muistissa, vaikkei nyt likikään samanmoista vaikutusta tehnyt. Hyvin viihdyttävä ryöstöelokuva, joka ei sisällä lainkaan Spike Leen myöhemmän kauden ongelmia mm. paasauksesta, mutta ei myöskään anna juuri muuta, kuin sitä viihdettä. Pienet sivuhuomiot yhteiskunnan tilasta (lapset ja väkivaltaiset videopelit, erityisesti mustien mustille kohdistama ihannoivan sävyn väkivalta) osuvat kaikille ymmärret"
