We Will Riot (2013)
I wouldn't wish this movie on my worst enemy
An utterly pointless exercise in film making that looks like a woeful student project with virtually no redeeming qualities. It is amazing to me that the producers found the funding for this folly. But, I guess they peddled the project as something other than what it turned out to be -- a worm's eye view of Vilnius designed more for shock value than anything else. Sadly, it wasn't even that shocking.
It was just plain dumb. Starting with an inert script where a mixed- race black kid comes to Vilnius looking for the grandmother he never met, and then immediately finds himself thrust into the busy nightlife of the city, managing a municipal-funded night club, only to find it is all just a cover for a sinister plot. Acting was even more awful, looking like the producer just took whatever kids at the night clubs, but then they didn't have much to go on.
