Lisa Schwarzbaum is a film critic for EW
Spike Lee's obstreperous rant excoriates both blacks and whites for the image of blacks in pop culture, punishes every character, and hectors every viewer without mercy -- or logic. Damon Wayans stars as a TV writer who creates a painfully offensive minstrel show -- black performers shucking and jiving in blackface -- expecting to be fired for the outrage; instead, the show is a hit.
