Da 5 Bloods review

2020-06-27

Hold onto your helmets, dear listener, because this one gets rocky! Join the boys as they review the latest Spike Lee joint - a film which the critics are praising, but which only one of the guys likes. So what exactly is that host's problem? Is the message of the film not powerful enough? Did Delroy Lindo's incredible performance not carry him through the first hour? Or did he not like Lee's directorial preference to cut in photos and archival footage from history to illustrate his point?
