Movie Reviews of She's Gotta Have It

Movie Review: Resurrected to DVD. Wow!
Summary: 4 Stars

Spike! Now that you've brought this classic up to the Y2K era, how about a sequel? I mean, really! John Canada Terrell and Tracy Camilla Johns reunited. (heck, they even have the same initials) How would Greer feel when he runs into Nola again after 20+ years? Will he still love her or did he get his fill of white girls. Will he try to get revenge? (pretending to fall in love with her only to lead her on). So many questions that makes the appetite of your average movie view grow. I think you should find Ms. Johns and ask her to do a sequel. She's gotta be around somewhere!!! Anyway, I saw this movie way back in the day and loved it. I do believe the 2 of them (JCT and TCJ) sort of have that Billy Dee Williams/Diana Ross connection. They play well together. Think about it, Spike. Seriously! You'd really do something if you reunited them.

Much luv brotha!

Movie Review: "Please Baby Baby Baby Please"
Summary: 4 Stars

The now famous quote, said by director Spike Lee's character Mars Blackmon, were the cries of many film enthusiasts crying out for a DVD release. "She's Gotta Have It" is finally here, and aside from the lack of features, it doesn't seem to disappoint. Nola Darling is a young African American woman in Brooklyn that has three lovers. All of which have different attributes. She gets tied up in a love triangle of sorts and in the end she has to choose which one better suits her. Being that this is the debut feature of critically acclaimed director Spike Lee and the pioneer of the black film movement, I expected more than a bare bones DVD release. Criterion-esque release perhaps. But in the end, I can't complain because after 22 years, and an out of print VHS, She's Gotta Have It is on DVD.

Movie Review: Finally! The first and best!!
Summary: 4 Stars

It's almost hard to believe that 22 years ago a little bitty film called She's Gotta Have It made its way to limited screens across America. I was still in college then, so the film's release and content spurred a lot of dialogue on campus and set the path for more contemporaries of Spike Lee to proliferate. I haven't received the DVD yet, but I am dismayed that there are no extras. I have owned the laserdisc of the movie for over 10 years, and that has a photo gallery as well as a brief discussion of Spike's two "shorts" that he made before this film. But to finally have this film and be able to add it to my collection which now will span eight Spike films is worth the wait.

Movie Review: You've gotta have it.
Summary: 4 Stars

If you have the Spike Lee joint Collection and Malcolm X, you need to get this one too if you want all of his good early films. Parts of this movie can be viewed many times. For example, the scene that's in color. The sex scenes are very unique. It's better than Scorsese's first film, "Who's That Knocking on My Door", also in black and white and low budget. It still surprises me that a male wrote this movie. To sum it up- great art film. It should have been a cult classic.

Movie Review: Sexual
Summary: 4 Stars

I admirer Spike Lee's movies. He set the bar high for african americans cinema, his films have interesting subjects. This was his first film and you can see he talent in the beginning. She's gotta have it, i know alot of females who act just like the female in this movie. They're horny and they can get any guy. I enjoyed this movie and i usually don't like black and white films
