Clockers was a good film in spite of Lee, not because of him. The script was by Richard Price, from his own novel. When Lee directs his own script there's no balance or clear arc and never a solid ending. This is because there's no one to edit from his words to his camera. Clockers was a studio film with studio producers and production manager to keep thing on target. Even with this it cost (just production, not P&A) nearly twice as much as it took in. Factor in the P&A and it's a disaster.
