1992
Directed by Geoffrey Wright
If all the characters in a film morally repulse you, is it still possible to enjoy the movie? I am thinking yes, but I am not entirely sure that this film proves that theory.
Hando is the leader of a violent gang of neo-Nazis. His gang mostly targets the Vietnamese, although I am sure they hate all non whites equally (they are fair like that). Hando begins a romantic relationship with Gabrielle, the daughter of the an abusive, wealthy man. The gang discovers that their favorite pub has been sold to a Vietnamese family and they...retaliate, I guess. I miss the days when rumbles in movies consisted of pirouettes and yelling "POW!"
So obviously, the majority of characters in this film are garbage, which means I didn't really care about what happened to them. I suppose the movie is effective in exposing the audience to racism and illustrating how ugly it is. But um...I already kind of knew that. Hopefully you did too.
RATING: *----
Interesting Facts:
Daniel Pollock (Davy) committed suicide before the film was released.
