   Is 'bamboozled' a good movie?

   • "Bamboozled" is clever and one of Spike's most explosive films next to "Do the Right Thing" and "Malcolm X". This film has Tommy Davidson performing in blackface, in a very funny routine. I wanted to laugh but at the same time it made me think. This sketch was making me laugh at every stereotype about my people that I hated.

   Is bamboozled a canon film?

   • Bamboozled is a singular film in Lee’s canon for so many reasons—the Mini DV being but one. On rewatch and with 20 years of hindsight to our advantage, it also reveals itself to be exemplary. So much of what Lee worked toward before this film, to say nothing of what he’s accomplished since, is present.

   Is bamboozled a comedy?

   • Audacious, vibrant, unsurprisingly maligned but frequently brilliant. Believe it or not, Bamboozled is a comedy, even if a dark one. Lee makes sure that there are plenty of laughs, even if he's poking the audience at the same time to wonder why they are laughing. Bamboozled is both outrageous and outraged, with some bitter laughs strewn throughout.

   Is bamboozled a satire?

   • Bamboozled is too heavy-handed in its satire and comes across as more messy and overwrought than biting. A blistering satire of network television's pitfalls and prejudices, a humorous look at how race, ratings and the pursuit of power lead to a television writer's stunning rise and tragic downfall.

   The movie stars Damon Wayans as Pierre Delacroix, a Harvard graduate who is a program executive at a cable TV network. He works under a boss who is, in his own eyes, admirably unprejudiced: Dunwitty ( Michael Rapaport) says Delacroix's black shows are "too white," and adds: "I have a black wife and two biracial kids.

   Oct 20, 2000 · I've seen most of Lee's films and have mixed emotions and reviews of each of them; however, this film is truly a MASTERPIECE of filmmaking. Without giving away the many-layered plot, which must be experienced to be appreciated, the subject is a touchy one --- controversial and poignant, embarrassing and humiliating, enlightening and insightful.
