i go to this movie expect a concise movie relate the effect the son of sam have on the society . i do not expect spike lee to force fee me more garbage on racial tension and mob justice and or the inability of the common citizen to make a choice under pressure by peer . lee have present an extreme opinion . the entire movie could have be more effective if in a 90 min format with more focus and less tangential sub plot . don not even bother rent the video unless you passionately enjoy spike lee while in such a case and the theatre be worth it . this be not an escapist movie .
