I had such high expectations for this film. Disappointment does not begin to address the failure of this film. As a fan of Mr Norton's it is very hard to not enjoy something he appears in, yet this Spike Lee joint is a pathetic film. The dialogue is banal, puerile and pathetic. The direction, if there is any, is incoherent.
I think, by comparison, Revenge of the Nerds comes across as more "hardcore" and "street-wise".
I don't know how this film found a producer unless Lee put up his own money.
What a waste. A truly gifted actor is always at the mercy of a script and a director.
I hope this film will be overlooked in the resume of the careers of all concerned.
