This movie is a masterpiece and one of if not the best movie Spike Lee has ever directed.

There wasn't much to direct. The story was already there, he was just smart enough to cast Denzel. She's Gotta Have It was a better flick.

I think Malcolm X is his best.
i remember the day it dropped,it was like a festival or holiday! The X logo caps and Tees in effect!
The film just branded out the ressurected interest of a great man (IMO).

Movie was perfect, remember seeing the movie in the late 90's as a kid, my emotions was 
when they showed the lil kids saying "I am Malcolm X" at the end.

Denzel fukking KILLED IT...the voices are almost identical. And some of it is by nature, but Denzel accentuated to the point where it's almost identical.The movie changed the way I looked at life as a youngin.... I was like@ the transformation of the pawg chasing Malcolm Little to the man that returned back from Mecca...

I actually remember going to see this when I was young. A local radio station (Magic 102. My real Houston nikkas remember before it was 97.9) was handing out tickets and shirts. Can't lie it shook me to the core even back then. Denzel's performance was amazing and IMO hasn't been topped since.

The book has a lot more stuff in it that the film doesn't cover
The movie is a masterpiece and the best work Spike has ever done. The assassination scene is incredible. The scenes where he is cleaning himself up in prison is moving also.
Malcolm X's life is a true example of the American Dream.
I just remember all of those "X" hats and shirts.
They also had to get money from prominent black celebs and businessmen to put the film together. It's just amazing.

When Malcolm was heading to the Auditorium to give that talk and that music by Otis Reading came on.......
Top 5
Included on my list would be Monster, Alchemist, can't think of anything else, but those 3 always get re-read every so many years. Its funny how I found both Monster and Malcolm cause my cuz left them in my crib when he got locked up. Both those books saved me, and 10 yrs later I sent new copies of each to my cousin who was serving a new bid. Needless to say they didn't make the same impact on him as they did on me.
