Review

 

Police viciously beat a 16-year-old housing estate kid they are questioning, leaving him almost dead. Responding to violence, teenagers from the estate turn their home into a 24 hour war zone. Among the people blinded by hate are Said, Vinz and Hubert, youths who survive on petty crime and dealing dope. In the intensely volatile environment, the teenagers find a chrome-plated Smith & Wesson 44 that a plain-clothes cop has lost. If killing a cop with his own gun doesn't express their rage, what will?

The French cabinet commissioned a special screening of this tragic story on its release, to see the problems of the angry French underclass on the streets of Paris.

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars What a Film!??!

I studied this film in a media studies course and only was able to watch the beginning and end, and i was hooked. therefore had to buy the film to see what actually happens. the director is brilliant in his choice of camera angle and the fact that it is in black and white adds to the intensity of the oppression felt by the characters. loved it. the middle can seem abit long, but the ending is well worth the watch. if you appreciate films in certain contexts then this 1 is for u

One of the best films ever made! Set in the paris suburbs, a friendship of three guys from different backgrounds is shown through good and bad times! film portrays culture, music, racism! this is a film you have to watch before you die!

A true classic with everything that a good film needs to possess. Strong story-line, interesting characters with lifelike characteristics. Besides this the camera work is some of the best that i have ever seen and the B+W makes it even more powerful to view. You should definitely purchase this, a real classic
