Feels authentic

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2019)

I don't have time for much of a review but I will give a few thoughts while they are fresh. Whoever directed this did a great job of showing the time pass as well as giving a real feel of the life in the slums there. Only after the movie did I realize it was based on a true story which makes sense because it seemed so authentic. Life is just different there. Morality and mortality are thought of differently there than for those of us who have lived an easy life. It made me care for the good guys. I was pretty damn sad when Benny got put down even though I knew he would. I was pretty happy Rocket made it out when the cards were against him. That's a sign of a good movie to me, when it actually makes me care about the characters, most don't.
