Don't Be Bad

About This Movie

Don't Be Bad is this gritty dive into 90s Rome, set against the backdrop of Ostia's seedy underbelly. You really get a sense of the chaos of that era, with its flashy cars and the constant buzz of nightlife, but it’s not just surface-level glitz. The film digs into the desperation and camaraderie of two young guys, Vittorio and Cesare, searching for their piece of the pie amidst the drug-fueled frenzy. The pacing has this raw, almost documentary-like feel, making you feel the weight of their choices. Performances are pretty compelling, capturing that youthful bravado and the lurking dread of their situation. It's a straightforward story, but there's depth in the atmosphere and themes of ambition and moral ambiguity that really set it apart.
