A movie for the gangsta fans...
4 July 2007
I have a passion for gangsta films and this was one of the more different ones, nevertheless it was very original. I enjoyed the film and have watched it many times, and still enjoy it now. It's more narration of the story than just every part being acted out. One of its best points is that it is South African and reflects their gang culture. Much of the film is violent and involves a lot of swearing but it adds to this image of being very ''street''.

Good Points:

Good ending Insight into South African gang culture Well narrated Has a documentary-movie vibe

Bad points:

The ''actor'' trying to gain the role of Bra Sox = poor performance Can drag a bit Not a movie for people that are not interested in cultural/gangsta movies

Something New (I) (2006)
9/10
Amazing movie!!
4 July 2007
Definitely a film for all mixed race couples to watch...full of emotion and a great movie to watch. It goes through the tough times of a couple - one of them is white, one of them is black. It goes through how their family and friends react, how they deal with such reactions but how their hearts react too. Due to the tensions that still exist between whites and blacks, especially in America, this movie is a complete icebreaker and it teaches that it isn't race that matters in a relationship or what anyone thinks, but love. It has an interesting ending and perfect for a night in with the ice cream. Definitely one of the better romance films of 2006.
