Delroy Lindo acted his ass off and gave a unforgettable powerful performance of a lifetime as the tormented Vietnam veteran Paul. He should win an Oscar for Best Actor.

Thank you Spike Lee for all your movies you're such a genius and you know when you're watching a Spike Lee movie it makes you feel alive

Spike Lee is truly one of the greats

“If you didn’t serve in the military, you serve more time in jail as a juvenile than an adult” 😱 History lessons in this film....

I know for a fact that spike compensated him very well for his efforts, Henry is a legend and should be treated as such

Movie of the year so far to me! And delroy lindo should win actor of the year his performance was masterful

Spike’s life commitment of creating and bringing the essence of black ppl life to the forefront is so honorable and his works are beyond appreciated. Thanks so much for the great works 🙌🏾

This history, all the suffering and brutality, al the decades and centuries of injustice. It breaks your heart to see that so much time has passes, and so many wrongs still have not been corrected. It is high time America makes big changes. Now.

Spike Lee is the goat🐐

The most important storyteller of our time.

Spike you are indeed a "keeper of our history". We appreciate you!

This captured the essence of our comrade brother Emory Douglas...always been for the People! His artwork will always be relevant! And Right On to Spike Lee who is indeed a griot of our Tribe...Africans born in the Diaspora. Blessings flow...

Da 5 Bloods is Legendary.

Douglas Emery's work was incredible. Beautiful and striking.

Delroy should get nominated for best actor, he was that good in it!

This film has my emotions everywhere....

Dang my grandpa fought the war I feel represented thanks so much for the African experience

I've seen this movie and it's heartbreaking, overwhelming, and one of Netflix's *best* . Spike Lee perfectly tackles racism from Vietnam to present-day. Had me crying by the end. 👏

Right on Mr. Lee TELL IT LIKE IT IS, I was there thank god for Marvin Gaye's music when I came home it save my life. Literally

Watched it. Pure Spike Lee written all over this. Word. And he tells it like it is. Never doubted Spike to come up with the goods which will twist every way but loose! A mixed bag of emotions in this drama of a war that apart from having nothing to do with the black man at the time as Delroy Lindo puts it, was also a war America should not have gotten into.

Give this brother his flowers while he's here, standing ovation for spike

9:15 This is some of the most emotionally engaging poster art I've seen in decades, truly inspired.

This guy must have seen the future while making this movie. Unbelievably intertwined with today's issues.

Spike is the essence of black film art and much bigger, American film!! Thanks for telling our stories Spizike

Spike Lee is and has always been my favorite movie producer! The messages from his movies always leave you deep in thought. This man has an amazing gift. This movie was EXCELLENT!!! I did not expect anything less from him! I'm still upset that all of them got killed except for Otis. This movie was POWERFUL!!! AMAZING WORK MR. LEE!!!

This is so powerful. Blessings to everyone involved with this project

Thank you for your service sir. We need the artist and revolutionaries now more than ever. Power to the people!!! Pa'lante compañero!!!!!

To be honest the poster at 9:15 is one of the best posters I’ve ever seen

And THIS is why I've always said I would NEVER fight in the military for this country.

Delroy Lindo deserves an Oscar for that monologue ✊🏽

Such an euphoric feeling of history and art. I embraced every minute. Takes me to another place.

Marlon Brando relevant more than ever in 2020.

Serious respect for the movie and for the smarts to bring Emory Douglas on-board. Fabulous graphic art which couldn't be more appropriate aesthetically and culturally. LIKE bigtime!

This felt like a spike D joint frfr

SHOUT OUT ⚖️ SPIKE LEE 🏁 DO THE RIGHT THING 🎗️

Just watched Da 5 Bloods. Best film of 2020 so far and by god are stories like this relevant.

A beautiful document of Spike's determination and body of work!

Thank you, Mr. Spike Lee! The film is amazing and tells a much needed story ✊🏽✊🏽

Right On Spike. I love the way u use your platform to tell our Black American Stories of Struggle in the Belly of this Beast called America. I RAspect u for this. I'm an Black Mama Elder (Iyamie) and I've been watching yr career ever since she got to have it. Now u are an Elder and u finally understand u are one of our Black African American Griots, (Storyteller.) We recently lost ( under suspicious circumstances, another of our Black Griots. John Singleton R.I.P. and many more before him. But you Spike are doing yr thang and with this movie right here, makes me so proud of U and yr vision....Ase ooo

I love Emory Douglas. He is a national treasure. Oh yeah, spike is alright.

Da 5 Bloods, Can Spike see the future? My best friend was first AD on this film so I admit a bias but I would say this is a remarkable piece of filmmaking and a story for these times. I was born in 1957 as was Spike Lee and was from the beginning a purveyor of his films, I have managed to interweave this learned experience into the fabric of my own African American experience. I married a black woman in 1976 and have been chronologically immersed in the same struggles of our times. Through his films I have been able to glean the nuanced messages of the black experience and struggle. My wife and myself and latter our mixed race son shared an early experience as the outliers. We see this and its sad depiction when one Blood meets his Afro-Asian daughter after all those years. In this film as with most of Lee’s work you see the fruits of thrusting cultures together and all that it entails. In Jungle Fever he helped me understand the nuance of shade, in “Do the right Thing” the fabric of the urban experience. In many of these films there is a foreboding and an impending suspense or doom. The opiates strewn on the jungle floor set off a clock as to whether that bill would become due. The mental illness and its residue sets off another as to if they may succeed in extracting the gold. And the gold which has historically set off madness in all men and pits them against each other at times. For the first time in a Vietnam saga Lee is exploring the Vietnamese’s pain and their regard for the returning invaders. In this we see that racism is a sword that cuts many ways. The French colonial adventurers also laid a stratification of pain inflicted as the earlier invaders. Not unlike Afghanistan the Vietnamese suffer and endure. It would seem we require an oppressed minority director to better understand the plight of the invaded. The jungle like the desert washes away all pasts but as they dug for gold I am worried about land mines, again present in the foreshadowing. Having spent extensive time on the Asian continent I am aware of how difficult it is to integrate. You can feel invisible when you’re there and you never know what people are thinking. How difficult it must be for them to greet those who have inflicted so much with open arms. There is vulnerability for the people that return to these places. I experienced that while in Libya just before the war. You feel that all they have to do is change their mind about you and your safety is no longer assured. When I’ve been in dangerous places like Haiti or Cuba or Libya I think of “The Deer Hunter” and wonder if I’ll ever leave this place. I found Lee able to capture a sense of irony which pervades every element of this story. The anguish is palpable and the lost opportunity to have a meaningful relationship with the son tears at your heart. What could have been a better look into the future than this? This tale anticipates every need that has come so recently to light.

My aunt was a Brown Beret,she walked along the Black Panthers back when they joined forces. I have her picture on my wall with a Black Panther next to her, she's lived an amazing life. I stand with my black brothers & sisters. My aunt always would say "if you die for what you believe in, your purpose on earth has been fulfilled"

I really enjoyed it. Thank you for giving closure to some of our Black Vietnam vets. 👏 Bravo

Spike is the consummate film director.

This is so relevant today! Ain't nothing changed but the weather.

thank you spike lee. I LOVE THIS MOVIE

This movie was amazing must watch

The best film in 2020, it will win Best Picture. It made me cry for many reasons. I love being black. ✊🏾

I've started to watch the film. Powerful so far. Delroy Lindo is King. What an awesome presence

Thanks Soo much for the work we need reperations peace

I am very grateful for this film. I wept cathartically. The film reached deeply into my own experience growing up in the 60's with a mother who was heavily involved in civil rights activism during those years. For lack of better words.... thank you again from the core of my own soul Spike Lee.

Spike Lee must win or nominated an Oscar, or a Golden Globe for his direction !!!

Just SimplyThank you From My Heart ! This Is truly for our ancestors and our generation of heritage.🙏🏽

Emory Douglas is a legend!!!!!

I’m going to watch this movie tonight !!🎥

Thank you, Spike Lee, for ALWAYS telling our story as no one has EVER done!! Great work as usual and thanks again, for paying homage to ours!! You're, indeed,, our MINISTER of CULTURE, lol😁!!👍💕💯

I love Spike Lees films as they speak the truth that is always shoved under the rug of greed and selfishness. His films bring light to reality and there is not one film I have never disliked. He is not a coward; he is bold and a historian.

Soooooo amazing beautiful brother!!!

im ready to see this! i love Vietnam War movies!

Thank you Emory what a hero and a gentleman

"Soul brother,why do fight for a counrty who dont like or respect u" -Vietnamese DJ Girls. Thanks Agian Mr Spike LEE for giving Chad Bozeman a buetiful send off ALSO.

Man this shit makes you cry. Spike da God

So interesting - what a great story and history around creating the artwork for Da 5 Bloods

I watched it three times today great movie!

I LOVED THIS MOVIE....EXTREMELY INFORMATIVE👍👍👍👍👍

Brilliant film which uses style and action to make very important social points! The cast are incredible and what an amazing director!

Netflix evaluation should reach trillions of dollars for all the great content on their platform!!

Great movie! Thanks you Mr. Spike Lee.

This was really well done. Spike will always be an Inspiration to me. Emory is a god.

I can’t wait to see this.

Awesome look behind the scenes at the creative process that went into the poster art of the flick. I remember vividly the impact of Emory's art in the BPP Newspaper, and on a whole generation of revolutionaries who loved the BPP. One thing that was not captured in the flick was the influence of revolution among Blacks in the armed forces. It seemed to focus on individuals motivated by individual narratives and concerns in a narrow context.

Such a great movie, thank you Spike

Such a beautiful story, I love it 🥰✊🏾🌟

Emory Douglas is the man.

Awesome and deep movie! Thumbs up!

Definitely gonna check this out!!!

shoutout to emory douglas! met the brother in the streets of downtown oakland in 2014. dude does not age just like his art.

All I can is WOW !!!!

It has to happen It needs to happen It WILL happen ✊🏾

Thank you spike lee. I love all your movies brother

‘This was a great movie! It started off with the independent film look, so I was very surprised and excited when the crash, fighting, and explosive scenes came around. I also appreciated the eclectic music arrangement used when the team shot there way in to Veitnam, but it felt like it created too much emotion when I was not yet attached to the characters yet. “War”, even-though cleche , would have fit nice... Great Film over all 👍🏿

Excellent 👍👍👌

Wow. This is so powerful

Haitian Revolution next please and thanks 🙏🏾

Awesome! Definitely watching this

*This movie allowed me to release a lot of pain.* *How is Spike Lee not a top 5 director off all time?* *Wait until you find out who turned down the role of Stormin' Norm.*

Felt like I was sitting on a cloud just floating through history.

We love you Spike !!!!!!!

I LOVE THIS MOIVE....THANK U MR SPIKE..

A work of art, a masterpiece. I’ve noticed the critiques to this film are coming from a place of ignorance. This is a truly decolonial film, in a multiplicity of ways.

Great can wait to see ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾

Spike Lee ... ❤🖤💚

Your one of my hero’s Spike Lee
