The writing in this Spike Lee drama is superb and the idea of a man wrapping up his relationships with family and friends before a long prison term is aided by the way 25th Hour's characters relate to each other in real terms, with real emotion. The movie is a mess of gritty emotions, none of which I think are completely resolved, as it should be.
