Crooklyn is a vibrant semi-autobiographical portrait of a school-teacher, Carolyn, her stubborn jazz-musician husband, Wood, and their five kids living in '70s Brooklyn. It focuses on one of the kids, Troy, as she learns life lessons through her four rowdy brothers, her loving but strict mother, and her naive, struggling father.

CRITICS OF "Crooklyn"

Nolan's Pop Culture Review

An affectionate look at youthful adventures.

December 14, 2006

Time Out

The key problem is that the film is simply a ragged series of anecdotal sketches.

June 24, 2006

Resource

TV Guide

While Lee fails to impose sufficient structure on his material, expertly drawn performances help vividly to evoke the family and street life of an era untroubled by crack or drive-by shootings.

September 23, 2008

Resource

Chicago Sun-Times

Crooklyn is not in any way an angry film. But thinking about the difference between its world and ours can make you angry, and I think that was one of Lee's purposes here.

January 01, 2000

Resource

Cinema Crazed

A sub-par vision of Brooklyn with some bright spots

November 29, 2007

Film4

It's not Lee's most challenging work, but it's certainly amongst his most charming.

September 23, 2008

Resource

Lawrence Journal-World

One of Lee's more modest but admirable pieces.

February 24, 2004

EmanuelLevy.Com

Loosely based on Spike Lee's growing up in Brooklyn in the 1970s, the casual, warm, apolitical (for Lee) script took a life of its own during the development process.

June 06, 2006

Resource

ReelViews

Lee is as talented as any director is capturing an era, and some of the early scenes perfectly recall the mood of the time. The pop soundtrack may be a little too obvious, but it gets the job done.

January 01, 2000

Resource

TIME Magazine

Lee is a great self-promoter. After all his press releases and all his interviews, we are given films that are sketchy, unfelt and distancing -- incidents in Lee's career, the only drama that really interests him.

September 23, 2008

Resource

New York Times

It's the first Spike Lee film with the potential to be turned into a television show. More important, it's the first one to display real warmth of heart.

May 20, 2003

Rolling Stone

This remarkable movie will haunt you for a good long time.
