Why Spike Lee feels he has to bombard his viewers about racism in EVERY movie he directs is a question I\\'ll leave for another time. This movie was supposed to be a slick cops and robbers tale. And what it equals... Full review

This movie is for people who are tired of the shoot-em-up and explosion filled bank robbery films. Inside Man has almost no action, but the dialogue between Clive Owen and Denzel Washington is really entertaining, and is able to sustain your... Full review

though it was an interesting historical drama, seemed to lack focus....Inside Man is a fine caper film that has lots of surprises in store.....Spike Lee was called in as his replacement and it produced one of the most successful films in Lee's canon.....turns as well as fine performances from the star-powered cast..... ...

Not entirely successful, but always interesting and frequently quite exciting, Inside Man boasts an intriguing conceit and an unusual structure.....As sad as it makes me to state this, jazz genius Terence Blanchard's score is also woefully inadequate to the piece.....Moments of it are incredibly effective, including the wonderfully staged and performed initial hold-up sequence.....All in all, though, Inside Man is an enjoyable romp through familiar territory, with enough references to other films ( Dog Day ...

Inside Man is a pleasure to watch, a class-A thriller entertainment.....If the film has a weakness, it's in Jodie Foster's Madeleine White character.....The screenplay abounds with funny lines for Denzel Washington and Clive Owen.....Unfortunately, Foster plays White in such an oily, insulting manner....Universal's Blu-ray of Inside Man is an excellent encoding of this smartly produced caper thriller..... ...
