Da 5 Bloods is quite some undertaking. By and large Lee succeeds, even if along the way the story hits some cul-de-sacs... Go to Full Review
Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) 11/26/2020
4/5
From its sweeping jungle vistas to its full-fat orchestral score from Terence Blanchard, Da 5 Bloods often feels like an old-fashioned Hollywood adventure. But reality keeps pushing its way through in ways that can't be ignored. Go to Full Review

3.5/4
By the end, you'll be spent, dazed, perhaps even confused - but stunned, too, at the audacity of it all and the feeling that it is, so unequivocally, the right movie at the right time. Go to Full Review

10/10
The film is racially diverse with its cast of Black male characters, Vietnamese characters, and French characters. There are some moments of darkness and poignance, but they tend to be balanced with some light comedy and high-spirits. Go to Full Review
Julian Singleton Cinapse Jul 12
Da 5 Bloods is an action/adventure picture for sure, but like the best of Spike Lee films it’s one that revels and savagely critiques its genre trappings and inspirations, never losing sight of its own ambitions and fierce moral codes. Go to Full Review

5/5
It’s the second masterpiece from a great American poet in just two years, and one of the best films about The American War ever made. Go to Full Review

Neil P Nov 5 Could be the worst movie Spike Lee has ever been involved in. See more Sep 10 After 1/3 of the movie it totally changed its tone and tried very hard to connect to many topics and characters. Lot of Dialoge seamed improv. But Not in a good way. Good actors though. What a waste. See more Jack B Aug 9 I was very excited immediately disappointed, the action scene LOW budget, Reminisce parts? If Chadwick(peace) wasn't in scene would've never known time line. Spike couldn't hire Ai specialist to CGI their age? WHT WAS THAT? CIA Couldn't find that gold but umm yea they um yeah no. But aside from that for Spikes to pull a LOW BUDGET like this? Money grab.. I don't normally write reviews, just soooo upset N disappointed See more Edward J Jul 27 This was so bad I couldn't even finish it. I have no idea what Spike Lee was thinking or striving for here, but it just did not work. See more thiago s @Thiagostone Jul 22 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more David A Jul 13 Awful. Over wrought. Delroy over acting again. Dumb dialogue. Ridiculous random convenient plot twists. Friend blows up and they’re joking again soon enough. Why are the mine detection trio tied up? All the fawning reviews, impossible to understand. See more Read all reviews
