Summary: Spike Lee Is Da Bomb!
Review: A true picture of the hood. Spike Lee yet again explores the controversial issues relating to: police brutality, growing up in the hood and the struggles faced by young people growing up in modern day US. I think this is a must-see for young people.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: good movie
Review: despite what others might claim, this is not just a movie about stealing cars. it is about the oppression that young black males face in new jersey, oppression they face in the majority of the country. it chronicles the corruption that runs rampant throughout north american police departments, in this case, the newark police. this is a good movie whether you want to watch car chases and life in the hood or if you can appreciate the less in your face message of inequality and discrimination.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: New Jersey Drive Deserves 5 Stars
Review: If you like Friday, Next Friday, Juice, Belly, etc, you will love this movie, it is about some young kids living in the ghetto stealing cars, and joyriding, while trying to outrun the police. I reccomend this movie, and give it five stars. My review does not give the video justice.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Take This Drive
Review: Joyrides to nowhere fill New Jersey Drive with a bleak actuality missing in so many of the black social dramas being thrown our way these days. The movie's cunning puts us in the back seat during a car-jacking or lures us into a momentary sense of security. It's startling. Most of New Jersey Drive burns with desperation and anguish. Its style probably owes more to French New Wave cinema than producer Spike Lee's own haggard brand of photoplay. It reminds us of the hope our inner cities are barely holding onto.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Eh...Could have been better...
Review: No, this movie is not "da dopest car movie evah" or anything like that. I am a huge fan of films about Black-America, being that some of my favorites are Menace, Boyz, Lean on me, and many more. However, Let's be honest, there is nothing that is that great about this movie. It doesn't have much of a plot that will really hold you down and make you want to watch, and the acting is, average at best. I will say though that the acting of the police officers is horrible.

This movie could have been something much more, had they tried to make you want to watch it for more than what it is, just people stealing cars. I doubt many people will see this film that live outside of New Jersey, but it is an accurate portrayal of life in Newark, so for that I commend it. But if you want to see a great movie, I suggest looking elsewhere. If you are just in the mood to watch cars being stolen and enjoy the action, then this movie might be for you.

Rating: 3 stars
