Sieben Tage Sonntag

Now I could say no pun intended, but if I'm being honest ... it is very much intended. Talking about intentions, I can understand that for some the intentions of the movie are not clear. One may think it just wants to show us what is happening without giving us guidance. And that leads us to the point where you can say the same thing about the youth portrayed in here ... they are not being leaded by someone and therefor just drift and without anyone really giving them advice.

Having said that, it is really difficult to root for anyone in this. While at some moments of the movie I was reminded of Mean Streets (the Scorsese one), when you kind of look at the two main characters. But it's an illusion, not just story wise but also quality wise. I commend the rawness of the movie and not taking prisoners. But acting is also subpar and the point it tries to make could be told in an even shorter running time ...
