Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential video: Spike Lee's semiautobiographical, 1994 film about the good and bad times for a Brooklyn family in the '70s has passion and nostalgic good feeling, but it is also a mess of random reflections and arbitrary storytelling. The centerpiece of the movie is a little girl (Zelda Harris) who views the ups and downs of her parents' experiences (mom and dad are played by Delroy Lindo and Alfre Woodard), and who navigates the life of her neighborhood. Lee tosses in a lot of '70s detail (watching The Partridge Family) and other diversions (Harris's journey through suburbia), but he has no master sensibility controlling the flow of it all. The film is more wearying than anything, although bright spots include Lindo's fine performance as a talented man suffering from irrelevance. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:

Who can forget this gem? Crooklyn is loosely based on Spike Lee's life growing up.

Alfre Woodard's presense is felt as the stern but loving mother of four kids and Delroy Lindo's is great as the father who ... Read More Rating: - Spike Lee With Heart! This is a wonderful movie. My favorite from Spike Lee. It tells an autobiographical story about a mother dying from cancer and its effect on the youngest girl in the house. It uses a lot of fun techniques to create a nostalgic mood for the 1970s and offers differences between urban and suburban African-American lifestyles in a hilarious comparison. The movie has quite a bit of love in it and that carries the story above and beyond the usual family history movie. The girl's impression of the ...

The cinematography and script are all excellent as always and the soundtrack represents the seventies very well. The film's only down point is that it's a bit long but still a great heartwarming film. Rating: - FAVORITE MOVIE OF LIFEThis has been my favorite movie since first seeing it when I was nine! I love it and make any of my friends who hasn't seen it watch it. Such a classic! Browse for similar items by category: |
