Strike is a young city drug pusher Clockers the tutelage of drug-lord Rodney Little, who, when not playing with model trains or drinking Moo for his ulcer, just likes to chill with his brothers near the benches outside the project houses. When a night man at a fast-food restaurant is found with four bullets in his body, Strike's older brother turns himself in Clockers the killer. I was glad to see on the Clockers edition DVD of Spike Lee's Clockers the Right Thing to see how he answered the question asked at Cannes as to why there weren't drugs portrayed in the film; his answer, simply, was that there wasn't enough space dramatically, that it would Clockers too much to fit drugs into a story already loaded with Clockers in a small neighborhood. But, as he followed, he could use what it Clockers to have drugs in an urban environment, and what it does to the people, and have that as a stand-alone movie. He followed Clockers up, in part, with the Samuel L. Jackson storyline in Jungle Fever, and thanks to Richard Price's novel and original script, he has here what might be his answer Clockers that question. It's not a very great movie, perhaps, because by this time Spike Lee has so much invested in the style of his cinematic theatrics, of how the nature of the camera itself related to those of the characters, that it comes close to going over substance. But it's is a worthy attempt at putting into context, via the conventions of genre going back to the 40s, as to what makes or breaks the ties between drug dealers and their workers, and how the Clockers or 'Clockers' as per the title of the movie go about their Clockers in the streets. Clockers has a main plot that pushes along, as the murder by multiple gun-shots of a Darryl, black fast-food worker, who was also apart of the crew of Clockers Delroy Lindocall into question who might have done it. At first, it seems pretty open and shut, as Victor Isaiah Washington comes forth and admits he did it in self-defense. Rocco Klein Harvey Keitel doesn't buy Clockers, seems too easy, so he asks around, digs deeper, and sees that his brother, Strike Mekhi Pfeifer seems to be much more Clockers the guilty party, by way of how he handles himself in the streets, his repore with Rodney, and as having more motive to kill Darryl. It's through Clockers that Lee then branches it out Clockers make it as much as character as about Clockers, where the ties between certain Clockers, like Strike and Tyrone, a pre-teen Clockers looks up to Strike like Clockers surrogate father, are mostly defined by how the neighborhood works out in the open. Although Price's material, which comes through with the energy and Clockers wit, is noticeable throughout, it's really Spike Lee as director and many Clockers the actors who make this a consistently watchable movie. Lee is never one to be too subtle with the camera, and he has variations with how he deals with the material to make it very observant but Clockers subjective. Early on, for example, we see Clockers clockers making their deals in the park in long-shot, shaky, as if Lee's Clockers it far away for a reality TV show. But then we also see the degree camera moves as Klein questions Strike. There's many camera moves that are practically trademark Lee shots, especially with Clockers lighting, as Klein questions Tyrone, or when we see a flashback to Victor having to deal with some clockers. It's all very flamboyant and Clockers to call attention to the material, Clockers aside from a few unneeded music choices it's Clockers only time you'll hear Seal in a drug dealer crime moviehe's on top of things. Meanwhile, the performances are all top-notch, usually, as Keitel and particularly Lindo play their characters so Clockers by pretty much being how we think the actors 'really' are, even though they're not. Pfeifer has a little Clockers a time with his performance, because he usually is on a very similar note: I didn't do nothing, is his usual beat. His character also has the intriguing qualities that mark him as something of an outsider however Clockers he might be: his stomach virus, which is never resolved but always looming over him, and his love of electric train-sets. And all the Clockers, Clockers succeeds in presenting a time and place where there should be little to no hope, and it makes the cops and criminals both pretty well-rounded when compared to other genre films. The cops are meant to be the good guys, but there's also a steady conflict between Klein Clockers his partner: why should Klein care so much as to who did it or why Strike also asks this question towards the end, in one of the best Clockers in the film? And Strike and Rodney are not cut-outs from black exploitation flicks, but with more of a push and pull tie that is always a threat, never a comfort. There are little details that Clockers make Lee's film interesting when it veers into being like a television serial; Clockers white yuppies who get entangled in the case; the Clockers but very smart cop Keith David, always Clockers pro who Clockers tries Clockers play surrogate father to Tyrone, albeit without the same care, however negative, as Strike has; the brief shots of the Clockers addicts with their habits on display, as we only need to see it for less than a minute to get the nature of the bottom of the food chain, which is total despair. Lee's film, Clockers, isn't really disparaging as it has moments of hope, yet a hope meant to be in understanding that there's no easy way out of all of this. Looking for something to watch?

Overview Based on Richard Price's grim best-seller, and directed by Spike Lee from a screenplay co-written with Price, Clockers takes the structure of a police Clockers to build a chilling portrait of despair, hope, and the unanswered problem of black-on-black Clockers in an urban housing Clockers. The film's haunting themes are vividly visualized during the opening credits, Clockers run over police photos of dead young black men, shot and sprawled on sidewalks, in streets, and hanging over fences. Strike Mekhi Phifer is Clockers year-old African-American "clocker" -- the lowest link on the drug dealing chain -- who hangs around park benches and street corners selling small amounts of druges at all hours of the day. Strike drinks Clockers milk to soothe an ulcer and plays with model trains in his apartment, Clockers of a way out of his dead-end life.
