Not the movie to see, apparently

An on-line review of Miracle of St. Anna takes it apart (and too bad for Spike Lee):
Every huge Hollywood director has his huge WWII movie that gets huge praise. Miracle at St. Anna is not that movie. Unlike Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan and Clint Eastwood's Letters from Iwo Jima, Miracle at St. Anna isn't getting lapped up by the reviewing class, typically suckers for the WWII nostalgia. We have a theory why: It's because he's black! Or maybe it's because the movie's too long, too trite, and too simple.
Rico says you can read the bad reviews by clicking the post title, or be satisfied knowing that no one seems to have liked it...
