turned it off halfway through, the script just sucks and it's flash-back, flash-forward, the script is about as good as the novel Chevy Chase wrote in Funny Farm.
So were critics too afraid to give this a bad review?

I don't know, in this cancel culture probably. The film is supposed to be about retrieving gold but all the conversations are about race.
And it takes place in the present day but Spike has flashbacks to Vietnam - and it's the same guys! It's like they didn't age.
I don't care if Spike Lee is going to Spike Lee and be heavy handed but don't be boring. And since it's boring the preaching gets in the way in whatever story he was trying to tell. The story is really nothing; this isn't Three Kings and it's not some fun treasure hunt. It's guys sitting around a lot bitching and drinking booze.
This review from RT sums it up for why it's getting good reviews:

Adds an urgent, vital and clear voice to the current national conversation focused on societal and institutional racism.
So if you want to watch a boring, unfocused version of the above, this movie is for you.
