Gangster

About This Movie

So, 'Gangster' from '94 is this gritty piece that dives into the murky waters of morality and justice. You’ve got Father Ferriera, who finds himself in a nightmare after witnessing a crime that's just horrendous. The direction—though not widely credited—has this raw, almost claustrophobic feel, making you squirm along with the characters. The pacing? Well, it slogs a bit in spots, but I think that amplifies the tension, especially when you see Ferriera's spiral into despair. The performances bring a weight that feels visceral, particularly the lead, whose anguish is palpable. And those practical effects, though not elaborate, land hard when they need to. It’s a dark reflection on power and corruption that lingers long after the credits roll.
