Spike Lee first film where he left race behind to tell the story of the summer 1977 when serial killer Son of Sam was terrorizing New York. Lee fails to bring the energy that his previous films had and should have stayed telling stories he feels passionate about. The problem with this films is the flat screenplay that fails on almost every level. Even though the cast and crew try their best to capture the period, it feels forced and lacks the authenticity of the films of that period. A great potential and talented cast is wasted.
