8/10
a film showing and encouraging violence and revolt
16 February 2001
I wonder what people find so wrong about this film for giving it a 5.4 -I give it a 8 . I find this film superior to LA HAINE , because it don't just show the thirst for revolution of the youth , its analysing it and shows why a certain system dont work and have to be changed . Its not one of those movies that pretends to show a fair and realistic view on delinquency just by showing nothing or in an artificial way , those film who preravicate what's really the truth, like all those American almost ridiculous films like DANGEROUS MINDS. The good films about the culture of the youth of today , violence , anarchy , are MA 6-T VA CRAC-KER ( CRACK C-T ) ,and others like DE BRUIT ET DE FUREUR . Its not the conventional filmmaking, there's clips, long shooting and riots sequences and its filmed in an almost documentary and innate approach , Richet directed his film freely , with no big spending, he said to the non-professional actors to just act and talk in a natural style, like everyday , as though there wasn't any camera. A good film who show the youth abject to the capitalism and want some radical change. A film showing violence by showing violence , not really denouncing it but encouraging it.
