Freedomland (2006)
7/10
engaging and free of stereotypes
18 July 2006
Lead actors performances are simply over the top and the film itself is challenging and moving. It manages to deal with such subjects as racism, drug abuse, loneliness; that's why the power of the movie is its being part a cop drama, part a race drama, part a women drama, all in one. The director handles complex matters without conventional images and clichés; in short a committed movie with grand - slam performances and a strong direction. Not the frequent kind of movie over the last five-ten years because the majors nowadays bet on different stories. Nevertheless Freedomland has been quite successful so far.
