Critic Reviews of "Da Sweet Blood of Jesus"
Chicago Sun-TimesFebruary 26, 2015"Da Sweet Blood of Jesus" is a bold but wildly uneven, bloody mess of a film, sunk in large part by the subpar performances by nearly every major character in nearly every major role.
Time OutFebruary 20, 2015Never once does the film feel sharp on black identity (as did Bill Gunn's original), and the terror is theoretical only.
RogerEbert.comFebruary 13, 2015The film is a hypnotically nightmarish mood piece more than anything else; it makes sense and yet doesn't make sense, in the way that dreams do and don't make sense.
TheWrapFebruary 13, 2015Unrepentant, uneven and unique, "Da Sweet Blood of Jesus" proves that Lee can still make a film worthy of the arguments it will most certainly start.
New York Magazine/VultureFebruary 13, 2015Da Sweet Blood of Jesus is a mess, but it's the kind of mess only one of our greatest filmmakers could make.
Los Angeles TimesFebruary 12, 2015While this return to indie roots frees up Lee's often gifted image making, his usual pace issues and penchant for jagged flourish over sustained feeling keep it from achieving a rich, strange, sexy and sad whole.
National Newspaper Publishers AssociationMarch 15, 2017Spike Lee, the old guard of black indie filmmaking, gets his mojo back with this classy, urbane vampireish art film that is a beauty to behold. Sophisticated, demented, eerie, erotica, prepare to be shocked and flabbergasted.
FlavorwireJune 18, 2016It's a startlingly incompetent film, suggesting that we've reached a point where Lee's instincts as a filmmaker - so unimpeachable a quarter century ago - have abandoned him entirely.
The Film StageMarch 28, 2016Praise God. Da Sweet Blood of Jesus is Spike Lee's freest-feeling endeavor in a spell.
SF WeeklyDecember 31, 2015Spike Lee's Da Sweet Blood of Jesus is a loving adaptation of Bill Gunn's 1973 Ganja & Hess.
eFilmCritic.comJuly 14, 2015Lee certainly doesn't schlock things up. But he doesn't add much excitement, either.
Groucho ReviewsMay 27, 2015Our American addiction...bloodsucking from humanity in order to maintain the lifestyle to which we are accustomed. By the time Hess wearily muses, "I'm tired of this existence," it's more or less clear he means a spiritually empty capitalist existence...
