I saw 'GANG TAPES' not long ago.. I must admit, it looks like the director (ADAM RIPP) really want to do this movie in a way where the viewer is seeing all the events, in a real life situation.. Yeah! There's so many stories about the L.A. gangbangers.. The questions of whys, hows, and whos are glamourized to coincide of what really happens out there..
If you compare this to 'BOYZ IN THE HOOD', I think there is a difference of how the two stories unfold from one another..
To sum this all up, Adam Ripp certainly did give the viewer the impression that what you're seeing is real.. And you have to see it for real..
But in the end, it's entertaining but I find it a bit unusual for a gangster film unlike this one..
Hopefully, Adam Ripp will give us more entertaining next time..
