Da 5 Bloods

mco shared a tip "A dense story -- and I don't mean the long runtime. There were many parts of the movie where I had no idea which direction it was about to turn."

zaira_acosta shared a tip "Hilarious, informational, eye opening, emotional movie. This is that movie that literally hits all your emotions and senses at once."

jd_miller shared a tip "This film was unbearable. I really tried to give it a chance. The screenplay is awful. Lacked vision and theme. The acting could've been better,but with the above failures any acting around it would be a failure. Its trash but this is only a warning and my own opinion. Give it a look and maybe you'll pull something different out of it."

kyle_clanton shared a tip "Superb and dynamic acting performances from top to bottom in this film. Spike Lee does it again. Atmospheric, engaging, and though provoking."

kevin_keifer shared a tip "One of Spike Lees best! Who knew that the aftermath Vietnam war could still feel relevant? But these veterans bring depth and onsite to the experience of vets 40 years after the war."

ginger_k shared a tip "I've seen so many Vietnam war movies (thanks, Dad!) but this is the only one I can recall where Charlie also has a voice and I can't recommend it enough. I wish my father would have been alive to watch this one as it'd probably be his favorite"

anna_howard_5947 shared a tip "Although not as subtle as some of his other movies depicting race relations in our world today, Spike Lee pulls another brilliant movie out of his hat as we follow four ex-military men as they return after 50 years to lay their commander to rest in Vietnam. There may be a gold hunt involved as well, but the real brilliant lies, not in shining minerals, but in shining characters who fill out a sad story of men still fighting for their rights to live."

jacob_gatt shared a tip "When you watch it, make sure you keep in mind that it has foul language, violence, and gore. But this movie by Spike Lee shows the power of black people and the discrimination against them, and how the government put them in a war they had no business in and didn't even fight themselves. It is also one of the last performances from the legendary actor Chadwick Boseman.#blackpanther"

varian_nash shared a tip "Spike Lee delivers another great story. And was able to give Chandwick Boseman on of his final great films. Even with the graphic nature, it was hard to look away. Definitely a must-watch."

finn_doner shared a tip "A wonderfully complex character study and historical critique from the perspective of the black veteran in a simple story of men turning against each other over gold. Culturally essential and with a unforgettable performance from Delroy Lindo; Spike Lee’s Da 5 Bloods is one of the best of the year."

joshua_mrazik shared a tip "Well, it's Spike Lee so storytelling is definitely there, but as far as Spike stories go it's falls a little short of expectations, like it's no Malcom X, Do the Right Thing, or Black KKKlansman. But it does ptsd and the evils of war at the forefront to convey q decently compelling story. And Chadwick is amazing as usual, but supporting characters fall a little short and could be more fleshed out than they were. But overall interesting modern take on the Vietnam War."

loren_bray shared a tip "Definitely a Spike Lee joint, in the best sense. It hits home even more with Chadwick being gone in the movie as well. Would absolutely watch again!"

loren_bray shared a tip "I think mine was the part where the men are in the forest and they finally find Norman’s body. It just seemed like the end of a painful journey for them."
