Great script from David Benioff who also wrote a screenplay for the bestseller novel “Kite Runner”.
Spike Lee is to New York what Alfred Hitchcock is to San Fransisco. Conveys the atmosphere of the never-sleeping city and its people through the main characters. Although it looks like following the standard storyline, Mr. Lee surprises us with unforgettable sequences and editing.
Terence Blanchard’s score is also great.
