No surprise there was a riot

Review of" La Haine  

Film directed by: Mathieu Kassovitz 

Film released: 1995

Summary
No surprise there was a riot, and no surprise that the victims of the riot are largely the community that rioted.

Review

Slightly reminiscent of the (20 years later) Victoria. The B&W presentation feels right, the camerawork is quite fluid matching the edgy feel of the action. Perhaps it fails to delve into the pressures that the protagonists are under, and there 'hate' seems to be ust between the pigs and the kidz - but why?
