Poser (2021) offers a raw glimpse into the world of skate culture and the struggles of addiction. The film’s atmosphere is gritty, almost palpable, capturing the essence of a community often overlooked. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of reflection amidst the chaos of rediscovery. While the performances are generally solid, it's the lead's portrayal of a troubled yet charismatic figure that stands out. The discovery of drugs in a familiar hangout spot serves as a stark reminder of how the past can resurface unexpectedly, adding layers to the narrative. There's a realness to the practical effects, and the film doesn’t shy away from the darker sides of recovery, which makes it feel different from typical skate-centric films.
