58. "I liked the other "cinematic" episodes, but this didn't work for me." In response to In response to 57
I get what they were going for, but it reminded me more of "The Wiz" than a 1970s/80s Kung Fu flick (which you sorta mentioned). Just a bit too heavy-handed and self-serious. Which, you know, fits GZA's personality, but didn't work as well as an episode of TV.
I did like a few things: Freddie Gibbs as Killah Priest and them recreating the "4th Chamber" video at the end. And, I gotta admit, "re-enacting" Liquid Swords' cover as the last shot was kinda dope and unexpected.
But overall, this wasn't one of my favorites of the season.
