Social picture destined to target audience

[searchanddestroy-1 · 30 September 2023]

This movie is not a plot about gangstas, dealers, this is not LA HAINE nor LES MISERABLES, this is a pure social film destined at 99% to Black and Arab audiences living in French ghettos, suburbs. If you don't belong to these people, you won't necessarily appreciate it. The acting and directing are OK; the cast? Hmmm... When I see the BRI - SWAT - group leader looking like a ISIS cell boss, or a big gangsta chief, I nearly laugh.... I think this movie is totally ankward from the beginning, not on the meaning, but on the form. You can't take it seriously, especially if you have a little moviegoer experience, if you have seen thousands of films in your life. I preferd the first opus, back in 2020. Watch instead BOYS IN THE HOOD or MENACE II THE SOCIETY. Same kind of message but far far more powerful and, I am sure, with a lesser budget. I am dead sure there will be a third opus, another sequel. They should have made a series, it would have been far simpler.
