Blue Story (2019)
Not the best movie but is quite entertaining
I come from the same background portrayed in this movie. And as accurate it is it's also fairly inaccurate. Shootings in broad day in England with police coming right after everything is over and done with?
The pacing of this movie leaves much to be desired, it feels like the movie could have done with an extra half hour or so more to build up characters and plot lines.
The movie prides itself on answering the question "I'm gonna show you what these young boys are fighting for" but It's never truly answered. We know as much as before we came into the cinema to watch this film. Although its set in modern times, the gangs shown in the movie are inactive now and have been replaced. Which I found to be quite strange but I let it slide.
Blue Story has great acting from the stars though. Micheal Ward in particular shocks me with how well he embodies the role he has taken.
The movie overall is enjoyable for the target audience it aims to entertain, but maybe less so for those who are less familiar. Rapman's first movie was by no means bad but a decent watch. I never felt as if I was forcing myself to enjoy this movie but for how well it was conceived it could equally have been better
