I had a very similar experience with this movie and you've articulated the tension well between the absurd and the thought provoking parts of this movie. I'm gonna suggest this as a Lamb Chop, to you. This is a great review.

Films like "Summer of Sam" and especially "25th Hour" still deal, tangentially, with race and culture, but on a dramatic scale that mix images and music to near perfection.
