(FILM) The newest Spike Lee joint is a big-budget, big-studio,
big-name heist movie, with Denzel Washington cracking wry as a NYPD detective/hostage negotiator, Jodie Foster vamping as a
stylish fixer of nebulous but certain power, and a whole parade of innocent bystanders who don jumpsuits and get a
Patty Hearst–style makeover. (
