Flip Side of the Coin

Rating: Null/10 (13 July 2002)

I think some of the other reviews on this page are spoilers.
I have always seen AHX as a counterpart to Boys n' the Hood. I think these two stories are from directors with similar feelings but different perspectives.
All of the cast give excellent performances, and it is a first rate cast. Most of the violence is implied rather than graphic, but shocking anyway. It is certainly relavant to the plot and not over done.
The story bounces back between current and flashback but is not difficult to follow.
It is for that reason it is difficult not to spoil.
