Without giving too much away, this is a fairly good movie about a con artist trying to steal millions from an unsuspecting mark... that takes a hard left turn into a very uncomfortable storyline from which it never recovers.
The most interesting part of the film is when Spike Lee cuts back and forth between the Klan meeting and their chant of "white power", and the civil rights rally and their chant of "black power", showing that both sides were equal in their goals.
That's the most subtle this movie got with its message.
Really good movie, when it wasn't hammering you in the head with its preaching.

Worth watching if only to see a 25-year-old (and uncredited) Clint Eastwood make his motion picture debut.Movie comment on The Good Liar
