Yeah I remember reading something about it being written like poetry so the dialogue rhymed or some shyt.

Looks like it could be cool.

Chi-Raq, Spike Lee’s latest joint, is an update of Aristophanes’ anti-war comedy Lysistrata, otherwise known as the play where all the women of Athens stop having sex with their husbands in an effort to bring the devastating Peloponnesian War to an end. Set in the modern day south Chicago Urban war zone nicknamed Chi-Raq (as in “Iraq”) the story sees a group of women organize against the on-going violence after the murder of a child by a stray bullet, by withholding sexual access to the point that even strippers refuse to work. What follows challenges the nature of sex, race and violence in America and the world.

Will be interesting to see how Nick Cannon performs against type. Good to see Teyonah Parris get some shine in a lead role as well.
