No, that was just the camera work. The film itself was crap.

I'd call it more of a jiggle than a rock. The film was great in the cinema IMHO, although on the small screen I'd imagine it would be crap. Each to their own

The Wire is an American television drama series set and produced in Baltimore, Maryland. Created, produced, and primarily written by author and former police reporter David Simon, the series was broadcast by the premium cable network HBO in the United States. The Wire premiered on June 2, 2002 and ended on March 9, 2008, with 60 episodes airing over the course of its five seasons.

Each season of The Wire focuses on a different facet of the city of Baltimore. They are, in order: the drug trade, the port, the city bureaucracy, the school system, and the print news media. The large cast consists mainly of character actors who are little known for their other roles. Simon has said that despite its presentation as a crime drama, the show is "really about the American city, and about how we live together. It's about how institutions have an effect on individuals, and how…whether you're a cop, a longshoreman, a drug dealer, a politician, a judge [or] lawyer, you are ultimately compromised and must contend with whatever institution you've committed to."[1]

Despite never seeing great commercial success or winning any major television awards,[2] The Wire has frequently been cited by critics as one of the greatest television series of all time.[3][4][5] The show is recognized for its realistic portrayal of urban life, artistic ambitions, and uncommonly deep exploration of sociological themes.

Lies it is then. No thanks.

most films and TV is crap, just made to keep the masses from asking the real questions.

I have stopped spending time on TV and fiction movies and fiction books.

Life is too short to waste on crap.

Agreed. I personally watch very few movies or TV.. (with the odd exception, Dragons Den, football)...
