Preußisch Gangstar

About This Movie

So, 'Preußisch Gangstar' takes you into the lives of Tino, Oli, and Nico, three boys grappling with the weight of their teenage years in Buckow, which is quite atmospheric, almost a character in itself. The pacing feels a bit languid at times, echoing the struggles of youth. Tino's passion for motocross is a nice contrast to his school troubles, and Oli’s life in the club scene adds a gritty layer. The performances feel raw and genuine, capturing that restless energy of adolescence. It's not flashy, but it has an authenticity that resonates. The practical effects, particularly around the motocross scenes, are pretty solid too, giving it an earthy feel that’s hard to shake off.
