Plot:
Spike Lee's 1991 story about an interracial relationship and its consequences on the lives and communities of the lovers (Wesley Snipes, Annabella Sciorra) is one of his most captivating and focused f...( read more

An all-star cast heads up this Spike Lee film, one of his best, where a black and white interracial relationship developes. Wesley Snipes is actually very good and has excellent chemmistry with Annabella Sciorra. Movie os paced right and has great visuals.
spike lee does mixed relations and the hastle it causes between friends and comunity, wesley snipes in a decent role and annabela sciorra, do great, and a special mention to samuel l jackson in a small role as a junkie
This movie helped to open dialogue about many things that needed to be addressed at the time from drug abuse to interracial dating to fidelity. It was a good movie all around.
Wesley and spike lee, the beginings of Halle berry and Samuel Jackson on their way to becoming big stars! I really enjoyed this movie, a favorite! Daddy let me do my dance for you! haha! Ruby and Aussie Davis! Great old school Actors!
Seem to recall this being not bad. Not Oscar worthy or anything, but for Snipes "not bad" is pretty good.
Watching this again recently, it struck me that Wesley Snipes can be a great actor when he wants to be.....
Spike examines racial tensions again and he has got a great cast to help him do that. The only problem is that pretty much every character is nasty and bigotted in their own way. There are lengthy scenes with the different chacacters bemoaning the relationship between Wesley's and Annabella Sciorra's characters, yet at no point do they attempt to explain why... Without that understanding, I just couldn't connect with the flick as much as I would have wanted. That being said, it's an interesting film and the cast are pretty good. Sam Jackson is frighteningly good as Gator the crackhead. His scenes are excellent and it is always a better film when he is on screen.
Spike has put together a pretty good flick and having Stevie Wonder on hand for the soundtrack... A real smart move....
It really is overlong, but Lee deserves a lot of credit for this mature exploration of a controversial topic.
Great movie and one of Samuel Jacksons best roles. Gator stole the show and showed us how much of a brilliant actor he is. Halle Berry as his crack head girlfriend was marvelous.
Samuel L Jackson's performance as the crackhead Gator is, by far, the best thing about this film. Although the film features a great cast of Lee's regulars and a realistic storyline, Jackson's performance is exceptional.

Its a very good movie. It make me reflect on my life on how mix couple relationship was so hard back then. And I'm really glad its not so bad in this time. Because I have a mix relationship.
SAMUEL L. Made the Movie! Do that Dance for Me Gator, lol.
I smoked the TV !!
Halle was the cutest crackhead ever, lol
This movie is brilliantly directed! The script totally sounds like real life. All the scenes of the movie were beautifully managed, and seem like they would actually happen. It is a powerful movie that teaches while entertaining. It shows us ourselves and gives us an opportunity to see that we really know better than to let pre-concieved notions seperate us from our common humanity.
Spike Lee, Wesley Snipes, Queen Latifah, Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee...'nuff said! Still relevant today.
THIS MOVIE WAS VERY GOOD..SHOWS THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT HAS AND AT SOME POINTS STILL OCCURS WITH INTERRACIAL DATING..SHOWS THE HATRED WE STILL HAVE IN OUR WORLD FROM OTHERS...AWESOME MOVIE
I'll do it...I'll do it...you know I'll do it...cuz Ima craccck head...I like gettin high cuz Ima cracccckkk head
Excellent story about the complications with interacial dating. It also gave a very good account of two people who were really in lust because of a curiousity about being with someone of another race. Often many of the interacial relationships that we see are sparked by that curiousity, which is fine as long as after that curiousity has been satisfied there remains genuine love and interest in that person. Definite thumbs up to Spike.
SAMUEL JACKSON HAD ME ROLLING IN THIS ONE,LOL. HE AND HALLE GOT THEIR START IN THIS SPIKE LEE FLIK.LOVE THE SOUNTRACK DOMINATED BY STEVIE WONDER
For the most part, it was an average flick. Samuel L. Jackson was fucking terrific, though, that was the one thing I really loved about this. It might have been worthy of a C but the ending, Christ Almighty: "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" D-.
Flawed, but challenging, with some cracking performances. Snipes is a joy to watch. One of Spike Lee's better films.
A really funny exploration of interracial relationships and the trouble that derives form them. Features a standout turn form Samuel L. Jackson as Wesley Snipes' crack-addicted brother.
Wickedly awesome and true!
Well done spike lee...clap, clap. May I suggest 25th with Edward Norton as well.
In this movie, Spike Lee tackles the difficult issue of Interracial dating.....and Halle Berry does a great job playing the junkie in this film...
