Absolutely terrible. Stopped about a quarter of the way through. Just huge gaps of silence until Fuqua describes the action on the scene.

Your loss, "bone". An intelligent and informative track.

Rather low energy for how excited he tells us he was to make the film, work with the actors, shoot where he did, and fight for the scenes that he did. It is an interesting commentary track, with long parts that are redundant to similar moments earlier in the film. Of note are long talks about why he chose the actors he did (even in the smaller roles), what he had to do to film in the authentic areas that he did, and the real life ex and current undercover cops who talked to him regarding the different levels of corruption he wanted to portray in the story.
