Highest 2 Lowest (2025)

[Cremildo]

Apple Original Films and A24 are partnering on High and Low which reunites long time collaborators Spike Lee and Denzel Washington with Washington starring and Lee directing. A24 will release the film theatrically before its global launch on Apple TV+.

The film is the English-language reinterpretation of Akira Kurosawa’s crime thriller of the same title. While its unknown how similar the plot will be to Kurosawa’s movie, the original pic was released in 1963, and follows an executive of a Yokohama shoe company becomes a victim of extortion when his chauffeur’s son is kidnapped by mistake and held for ransom. +

I dunno, love Spike but his Asian cinema remakes havent been so hot...

[Gacivory]

I’m in!

[Scottie]

Fingers crossed that it's better than his Oldboy abomination.

The last movie that Spike Lee made that I enjoyed was Inside Man. That was also the last time he worked with Denzel Washington, so hopefully, this will be just as good or better. We shall see. He's a hit-and-miss director.

Just watched High and Low on MAX.

I noticed some influence on the film Parasite.

Really awesome film.

Spike doesn't know how to spell principal, apparently. And Kurosawa's not wishing anybody any success. He's dead.

A new cast member has joined ............

And no acknowledgement that you were wrong. How come that doesn't surprise me?

This internet spelling phobia has to have a name.

I'm all for punctuation, but c'mon.

I'm just pissed off now that that Shingster person had the gall to correct me in such a smartass tone and now doesn't have the humility to admit they were wrong.

Narcissistic rage is a hell of a thing, innit? Woud've apologised if you'd called me out in the thread rather than harassing via PM m8, so now you're just gonna have to sit with your emotions a bit!
