Ghetto moves to the Suburbs
25 January 2022
I almost gave up on this movie.

Act l: Was sad, and hard to watch. It consisted of 35 minutes filled with angry people yelling at each other. Very little in the way of character development, but at least there was enough to get you through the rest of the movie

Act ll: Moved on to the lead characters rise to power in the most unrealistic way possible, by selling drugs in broad daylight in a lovely little suburban neighbourhood. It was like watching a drive-thru at a fast food joint. Not one of the cars in the line up was was over 2 years old. Are you telling me that drug users are driving brand new Cadillac's, Audi's, BMW's, Mercedes, and Porsche's?

Enter Act lll: The attempted takeover, and the retaliation. Who didn't see this coming?

Technically the biggest mistakes were in the editing of the soundtrack, and cinematography. Some of the dialogue seemed muted, and too hard to hear. There were a couple of scenes that looked cheap, and didn't fit in well with the rest of what was going on in the film.

....so I did make it through the whole thing, but it wasn't anything special. You won't be missing anything if you don't watch it.
