〰️ uneven — Peaks and dips, no clear shape. Pulled both ways throughout — never simply one thing. Very little of it ever resolves. Marked above the line: 2 that landed as a blow, 1 that got a real laugh.

“I can see some people not liking the ending, but I thought it was powerful. Felt like getting hit by a sledgehammer emotionally”

“The lie detectors scene genuinely might be the funniest scene I’ve ever seen.”

“the ending, with the introduction of real modern footage and the flag, was Spike Lee's way of saying to the audience who still may not get it: if what you've just seen portrayed through actors recreating real events horrifies you, well, just look at the state of our nation and the White House. We're not that far removed.”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“BlacKkKlansman is both hilarious and exquisitely direct, and had it been made before November 2016, you might call Lee’s approach a little alarmist. But if anything, he’s restrained. This is an angry film as well as a hugely entertaining one, and Lee has complete control over its shifting tone, minute by minute.”
Stephanie Zacharek, Time · 100
“BlacKkKlansman presents racism as a dichotomy between the absurd and the dangerous; the film’s intentional laughs often get caught in one’s throat.”
Odie Henderson, RogerEbert.com · 100
“BlacKkKlansman is one of Spike Lee’s most accomplished films in recent memory, and one of the best films of 2018.”
Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times · 100
“BlacKkKlansman is a well-formed and compelling work of pulp escapism.”
Blake Goble, Consequence · 100
“BlacKkKlansman is a furious, funny, blunt and brilliant confrontation with the truth. It’s an alarm clock ringing in the midst of a historical nightmare, and also a symphony, the rare piece of political popular art that works in all three dimensions.”
A.O. Scott, The New York Times · 100
