Highest 2 Lowest Twitter/X Movie Review

Denzel Washington stars in Highest 2 Lowest

Day of Reckoning

IMDb Plot: When a titan music mogul is targeted with a ransom plot, he is jammed up in a life-or-death moral dilemma. Directed by Spike Lee.


Please don’t blame Denzel Washington for Spike Lee’s abysmal #Highest2Lowest. It’s yet another example of someone (Lee) “staying around too long.” This listless melodrama about money, morals & music misses the boat on so many levels, I’m amazed anyone has anything positive to say about it. A$AP Rocky is @RazzieAwards awful, surpassed by a trio of absurd NYPD detectives 🕵️ including the Mayhem commercial guy (WTF?) and one of the most grating, ill-matched soundtracks ever made. Denzel gets a pass (and then some) but Lee & company get their well-deserved (Grade:) F.

GradeF (Severe, I know, but expectations were high.)
