 Is it weird to think that Spike Lee falls flat in comparison to every other actor in this movie?

So a character who I feel is rarely talked about, especially in the context of the finale, is Da Mayor. He's been brought up a few times, but I've always been curious about him and never quite able to put a finger on it. Is he symbolic of the older generation, one left in ruins by a lifetime of racism? He's the one who rescues Sal and his sons from the mob, he tries to stand up for what he sees as justice even if nobody will listen to him. What's everyone's take on him?
I feel him, he know's what's right or wrong, but he's been beaten by life so much that he doesn't even hold on to a fool's dreams like the other three old men.
