Review of Yung

Yung (2018)
6/10
An interesting but somewhat aimless peek into Berlin youth
30 September 2021
Very raw movie with good actors. Interesting environments that felt very authentic for someone who has his own experience with festivals like Fusion and club culture. Unfortunately, after a while it mostly felt like an orgie of sex and drugs with no real aim or message. For someone who has watched the movie Kids by Larry Clark several times, I felt that this movie was very inspired by the former with the environments and aimless destructive lifestyles of the youth. There was one scene in particular which felt like it was just there because there is a similar scene in Kids, and it didn't make any sense to me so that's where I started to lose it with this movie. Anyhow, kudos to the actors, I hope to see them again in other movies as they did a great job, and the filming was excellent too. I just wish the movie had more to offer script wise.
