The Young Hoodlum dives into the gritty lives of Cheng-han and his friends, capturing that raw energy of youth caught in a cycle of neglect. It's not polished, but thatâs part of its charmâthe film has this almost documentary feel, showcasing the boysâ misadventures with an authenticity that feels both thrilling and melancholic. The pacing is a bit uneven, reflective of the chaotic lives they're leading. Pin-ranâs arrival introduces a different dynamic, stirring up their Robinhood escapades, which are executed with a surprising amount of realism. The performances have a certain roughness, but they resonate wellâthereâs a genuine connection among the boys. Itâs like watching a snapshot of troubled adolescence, filled with fleeting moments of joy and underlying desperation.
Focus on youth and social issues. ¡ Realistic portrayal of crime and camaraderie. ¡ Uneven pacing but engaging character dynamics.
