Keep in mind that Spike Lee had released Malcolm X a year earlier, so he probably just wanted to go in a different direction all together. Even though this film dragged in the middle at times, I thought it was a commendable effort, and as stated earlier, I thought J.J. and Tupac handled the roles well.

The story was ok. I think it could've been developed a little bit more. But I thought the acting between the 4 main characters was so intense and very believable. Especially the scenes between Joe Torry and Regina King, they were amazing.

I don't think he was asking who Mr. Singleton is, I think he was saying he's no Spielberg or Scorsese.
Despite this movie{I like it} and 'Boy's In The Hood' all of his other films are commercial movies.
4 Brothers was entertaining {I liked the snow chase scene}; it was like a throwback to westerns film.I have to edit my post he did 'Rosewood'; also he's doing a Luke Cage movie; sure it will be a comercial film but it could be cool. SWeeeeet CHristmas!!!
That resume is pretty good.
