The one sign about Spike Lee films is that you’re never clear what you’re going to regain. I’m not really a fan, I accept that his films are too convoluted with extraneous detail and somewhat over produced. Inside Man retains all the elements of a solid bank robbery/caper film, whilst also giving us Spike Lee’s trademark of gritty, street-wise irreverence.

The pickle with Inside Man is that it’s impossibly astonishing with a state that strains the realms of credibility; combine this with it’s over-long running time and you have a film that features some big performances by it’s cast – Denzel Washington, Clive Owen, Christopher Plummer and Jodie Foster – but ultimately sags a bit in the middle and ends up becoming rather ponderous.
Lee manages to pull off a handful of effective scenes, but he doesn’t have the flair to bring the whole movie off with loyal conviction. An enigmatic master criminal (Owen) – who spends most of the movie wearing a screen – plans and executes a “genius belief” in which he and several masked companions recall over a Lower Manhattan bank and brutally capture several dozen of its customers as hostages.

The NYPD negotiator given the task of dealing with these crooks is an affable junior detective, Detective Keith Frazier (Washington) – under a cloud of suspicion from a previous case – he soon surmises that the perpetrators don’t actually want the bank’s money. Enter smarmy and resplendent Fresh York political insider Madeline White (Foster) who knows everybody and even has the ear of the Mayor.
Madeline is hired by the chairman of the bank’s board of directors (Plummer) to oversee the crisis and beget determined that obvious secrets he has in his safe-deposit box halt secret. The bulk of the film involves the standoff between the bank robbers and the NYPD as they try frantically to ensure that the hostages remain marvelous.
Of course we know the hostages survive because Lee inserts interview footage of them after the heist is over, this design, however, tips off the outcome, dissipates suspense and rapidly becomes insensible. This is unbiased one of the many techniques Lee uses to clutter the movie’s structure and prevent the situation from unfolding as snappily as it should.
Obviously, everyone has something to conceal, particularly the bank president, but when his past is revealed, it finally appears with a bit of a thud, with the movie going through to distinguished peril to reach at very shrimp. In all fairness, Inside Man has some provocative things to say about urge, money, power and the ethics of urban living, particularly in Modern York and the performances are wonderfully cynical and gritty.
Washington is sexy and strong, Foster is skillfully odious as the frigid, sophisticated and amoral Madeline who cares for nothing but chasing mammoth bucks, Owen is morbidly compelling as the certain heavy and Plummer is letter-perfect as the guilt-ridden bank honcho.
Lee, however, impartial doesn’t seem able to bring all the disparate elements of a heist film into a convincing and gratifying whole and in the end; the movie is vaguely unsatisfying and impossibly far-fetched. Mike Leonard August 06.
Everything about INSIDE MAN makes the viewer want to like this film: Spike Lee as director, a gorgeous cast, a genuine musical regain that sounds a bit like Bollywood music, a theme that invites social comment.
For this viewer the terrific ingredients do not add up to a recent suspense thriller of a film. The legend is a variation of hundreds of other films (writer Russell Gewirtz somehow got away with unbiased an outline of a script of holes) and the technique of telling the epic – interspersing post incident interviews with the people alive to in the caper – makes it thud along.
Denzel Washington is his usual fair acting self, playing a cop with his have demons. Chiwetel Ejiofor is solid as his partner. Clive Owen spends the better section of the film gradual a screen but continues his reputation for smooth and worthy characterizations as the bank robber. Christopher Plummer is convincing as the succor president with secrets to conceal, which Jodie Foster as a middle-woman manages to manipulate. Willem Defoe is handsome as the cop in charge. They all effect well in roles they could do in their sleep.
Clocking in at over two hours the film seems to mosey over some inconsequential details in an attempt to shroud the holes in the script. Spike Lee makes it work because of his style. But in the extinguish the tale isn’t spellbinding enough to have our attention (‘been there, done that’) and this viewer, for one, fell asleep during portions when the film slowed for unknown reasons. Savor the director and the actors, pass on the film. Grady Harp, August 06
