    Spike Lee's Inside Man concerns a bank robbery that isn't really one, in which a disgraced police detective (Denzel Washington) goes head to head with a mastermind (Clive Owen) with plenty of recognizable faces besides. Right away, the title creates suspicion and paranoia, and hostage/suspect interviews edited into the narrative helps the notion along. The solutions are pretty clever and never talk down to the audience. That this takes place in Lee's multi-ethnic New York adds another layer to this chess game. That and his documentary-style camera work grounds the film in the real world, and yet he allows himself some directorial flair which doesn't detract from the mood, but rather enhances it. Great music cues too. This one keeps you guessing and entertains all the way through. Loved it. 6 years 4 months ago
