MasterBator AnonymousThe way they go about the plot elicits a feeling of nostalgia from the viewer because it shows a typical day in the hood and the way everyone interacts. It also interesting to see the use of the ripple effect to build the plot.2019-09-07 10:09 -

Critic Reviews of "Do The Right Thing"
New York Daily NewsJuly 07, 2015In the final analysis, the best thing one can say for Lee is that he takes risks, like all true artists. For unlike most of today's film makers, he's not afraid to really challenge a movie audience to do some serious thinking.
Philadelphia InquirerMarch 03, 2015[Do the Right Thing is] an exceptional film, a movie that wisely deprives you of the cozy resolutions and epiphanies so often manufactured by Hollywood. Like the film's principals, you are left feeling that you have been torched where you live.
Chicago TribuneMarch 03, 2015This might sound like a depressing story, but the level of performance and filmmaking is so high that Do the Right Thing becomes a most entertaining warning.
Los Angeles TimesMarch 03, 2015Do the Right Thing is complex, bravura movie making. It is also hugely entertaining, since fortunately for us, Lee's seditious method is to use humor to carry his biting message.
Christian Science MonitorMarch 03, 2015Its characters are often abrasive; its language is consistently foul; and it takes a complicated view of race-related violence. Yet it's an attractive and even beguiling film in many ways, too, with large resources of humor and intelligence.
Rolling StoneMarch 03, 2015There's only one way to do the wrong thing about Do the Right Thing: that would be to ignore it.
South Florida Sun-SentinelMarch 03, 2015If you see only one movie in this season of blockbusters, make it Do the Right Thing.
The NationMarch 03, 2015Do the Right Thing is Lee's most complex, heartfelt and disturbing film to date, a drama about racism that is more shockingly outspoken than any I've seen since David Mamet's great, and neglected, Edmond.
Philadelphia Daily NewsMarch 03, 2015The movie's volatile subject has overshadowed the fact that Do the Right Thing is quite funny and a technically superb picture that easily ranks as the best movie Lee has made.
People MagazineMarch 03, 2015If Lee is saying that racism is profoundly painful, frustrating and confusing, no one will argue. But this film states the case without offering any insight.
The Moving Picture ShowJuly 18, 2014[A] movie that gives us the vitality of urban street life and the viciousness of racism in a single, brightly bedecked, booby-trapped package.
Movie MezzanineFebruary 04, 2014My rowdy audience at Do The Right Thing did not cheer the riot, nor did one break out at the end. Like me, they left having seen a reflection of their own lives onscreen.
