CHI-RAQ

...a true satire, at once serious and irreverent, ridiculous and sublime.

There probably isn’t a filmmaker around whose skill set is better suited to scenes of people preaching than Lee, given his taste for direct-to-camera addresses, bold statements, and theatrical staging.

It’s the best film he’s made in a very long time.

...speak[s] about police brutality, government corruption and anger at black communities oppressing themselves with violence, without overloading his film with overt messaging.

...a tactless, haranguing, original piece of work, a movie-musical rant about something important.
