Has anyone watched Spike Lee's "Miracle at St. Anna?"

I came across it during an afternoon of sheer boredom a couple of weeks ago.

It probably isn't a movie I would watch again (now knowing the ending) but I came away feeling somehow very satisfied for having watched it, although I'm still not entirely sure of all of the stories it was trying to tell.

Anyone have any response to the film? Lots of critics panned it.
