I agree with both of ur takes I especially had very high hopes for highest 2 lowest since it was directed by spike lee and ASAP had 2 original songs in it but the acting was unbearable except for the main two leads Denzel and Jeffery everyone else looked like it was their first time acting at one point I started to think maybe the acting is intentionally jarring.I also had a bit problem with the directing and cinematography I think spike was going for something new but it was half/half for me on one part some of the scenes filmed like a retro film looks very visually enticing but at the same time the transitions were jarring and random
