I loved the score and I thought the story was really good. I love how it feels inspired by movies from the 1940s that’s a dope direction to take on your first movie. A lot of beautiful shots and I thought Spike Lee killed the acting in this, he’s an underrated actor. There was definitely some mediocre acting moments in here and I do wish they fleshed out Opal’s story more but overall very good movie. Last complaint was the pacing was a little slow and I do wish the acting was more engaging but still I was enjoying myself.

Do the Right Thing 1989
This movie is brilliant, it’s Saturn in real life. The score is amazing, and I love the mix of black and italian culture its like my 2 favorite type of movies in one. Mookie is a great character he wasn’t going, and Da Mayor is a fantastic character. It does a really great job at making you feel every emotion they want you to feel.
