Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review daniel h Would have made a great series which would provide the opportunity to flesh out more the story and characters. Acting was terrific. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Nice "romantic" gangster movie. The romance is not showing the proper degree crime affect communities. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review ari v If you liked HBO's "The Wire", you'll love this. No sugar coating, no pandering, just a nice wholesome slice of some grade A certified reality. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Love this movie by Spike Lee.

      Tim Goodman San Francisco Chronicle A wholly original, restlessly real take on San Francisco gang life... Sucker Free City has the kind of non-Hollywood take on urban trouble that proudly makes it cousin to The Wire on HBO, and there really isn't any higher praise than that. Rated: 4/4 Nov 14, 2018 Full Review Don Willmott Filmcritic.com two excellent hours Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 17, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews
