Overall a great, entertaining movie. But still it hurts the eyes.
And that is actually a compliment to Blue Story. Because the film feels real and realistic.
It portrays gang culture as it is. Pathetic little men who want to feel tough and dangerous. Suckers who let themselves be dragged into senseless violence and idlers who try to boost their self-esteem with forced slang and macho behavior.
Sad that humanity is capable of such utter stupidity. But well captured in an audiovisual narration.
Ow, and aside from the narrator rapper, the music really isn't for me to get through.

A peculiar crime drama with a few musical interludes, a poor and mediocre excuse for director Andrew Onwubolu (aka Rapman) to advance his career in the music world. Blue Story is a mix of remarkably uninteresting characters who have empty conversations with each other and, in between, become embroiled in gang violence. The latter is portrayed rather sparsely, without atmosphere, and without precision, but it carries with it such a dedication that it manages to be engaging. The acting, by definition, isn't bad, but on the other hand, it's not particularly noteworthy. Ultimately, it's unclear what a film like this is supposed to achieve, other than conveying messages that anyone can imagine for themselves.
