Critic Reviews of "School Daze"
Time OutJune 24, 2006Lee has a small, intimate talent; here, he goes for the big podium and blows it.
New York TimesMay 20, 2003For every tough-minded confrontation between the different student factions, School Daze is apt to offer a love scene less than vital to the plot, or an overlong musical scene whose effect is that of treading water.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000Spike Lee had something in mind while he shot School Daze, his follow-up to the cult hit She's Gotta Have It. Unfortunately it's still lodged behind his cranium.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000School Daze, with its pompous patchwork plot, is an arrogant, humorless, sexist mess.
Chicago Sun-TimesJanuary 01, 2000Although the film has big structural problems and leaves a lot of loose ends, there was never a moment when it didn't absorb me.
United Press InternationalNovember 08, 2016Everything about School Daze is frantic, and the energy is addictive.
LarsenOnFilmSeptember 07, 2015Skin tone is crucial to understanding School Daze's brazenness as a major-studio film.
TV GuideSeptember 23, 2008A shapeless mess that falls far short of the high expectations created by Lee's first feature.
Film4September 23, 2008Some of the issues get lost in the mix, but strong performances by Lee and Fishburne make this a watchable and thought-provoking venture.
EmanuelLevy.ComNovember 29, 2006The film's political issues are far more interesting than its artistic attributes--this messy picture feels as if Spike Lee is just incidentally interested in what makes musical movies work
Slant MagazineFebruary 13, 2005The film's central argument is that black matriculation is undercut by internal divisions.
Capital Times (Madison, WI)June 07, 2004An uneven but probably necessary stepping stone between "She's Gotta Have It" and "Do The Right Thing"
