High K

About This Movie

So, 'High K' is one of those films that sits in the shadows of the crime genre, you know? It dives into Coco's troubled world, a 17-year-old grappling with loss and a fractured relationship with her father. The pacing feels a bit erratic, much like Coco's own journey through nightclubs and rebellion. There's this gritty atmosphere that captures her emotional turmoil and the dark undercurrents of the anti-black group Uncle Blade. The practical effects aren't flashy, but they add a rawness to the film that anchors it in reality. Performances are pretty compelling, especially how Coco evolves throughout her struggle. It’s distinctive in its exploration of teenage angst mingled with societal issues, not something you see every day. It leaves you with lingering thoughts after the credits roll.
