Chi-Raq's reviews
Media reviews
Vulture
"Bitches, it?s always a good month in America for an antigun movie. The newest, Spike Lee?s 'Chi-Raq', might be the best ever. It?s sexy, brash, and potent ? a powerful weapon in its own right".
The Guardian
"While formally quite different from his more universally-respected early work, 'Chi-Raq' has the exuberance and wit you?ll find in 'Do The Right Thing' and 'Crooklyn'. It?s the best film he?s made in a very long time".
USA Today
"Spike Lee has been trying to get people to do the right thing for years, but with 'Chi-Raq', he solidifies a peaceful movie message in lyrical as well as powerful fashion".
The A.V. Club
"'Chi-Raq', Lee?s modernized take on 'Lysistrata', is mostly bad art. It?s about an hour too long, sometimes leadenly unfunny, and set in Chicago, a place the Brooklynite director has no feel for".
