Great Movie! this story needs to be told! Great work from the direction to the cast!

Great movie. Spike Lee did a wonderful job.

I have to agree with another reviewer that has already posted. This movie is not Spike's best. This movie is apparently supposed to be viewed through the young boy's eyes. However, the young kids acting performances in this movie is not that great. While the kids tried their best to portray emotions it was clearly a lackluster performance on both of their part. The grandfather's performance was quite good but something didn't make sense. At the beginning of the movie, it is clear that the daughter doesn't want to be around the father. Later you find out why and once you learn the reason, you have to ask, why on earth would you leave your son with him?

Loved it! As a Spike Lee fan, I like the story he told here and his imagery and use of music. As always, Spike uses those4 elements to move his stories in a certain way. This film did NOT disappoint.

I have to say that Red Hook was a good movie that sent a message to the black community in regards to their dependency on Religion. It gave people the history of the Red Hook Housing projects. It also provided a dramatic twist in the film that introduced the real message for the film. I got the opportunity to see Spike Lee in person during the Q&A session after the movie.
