Inside Man review...
If I see a better mainstream American film than Spike Lee's "Inside Man" in 2006, I will be very happy - and surprised.
The film, a thriller about hostage-taking bank robbers in New York City, is more than merely flawlessly cast and marvelously acted and directed. It is also a polyphonic, multiracial meditation on post-9/11 America and yet another Lee love song to the city of his dreams: New York, New York.
Can you believe the whole thing starts out to the percussive beat of music by legendary Bollywood composer A.R. Rahman?
Detective Keith Frazier (Denzel Washington with Kojak cue-ball head and added pounds), a sharp-dressing hostage negotiator, has his hands full. He's under suspicion after $140,000 goes missing during a bust. His freaky girlfriend (Cassandra Freeman) has got to have it (marriage, that is). Her brother, who lives with her, is a jobless drunk, and Frazier's superior (Peter Gerety) has assigned him to take over a standoff at the venerable Wall Street bank Manhattan Trust.
