The Gods 2: The Dark Side

The Gods 2 is a thrill-ride that not only keeps you on the edge of your seat, but it also pulls you in with its complex characters and rich relationships. Mykel Shannon Jenkins gives a nuanced and seasoned performance as a man trapped in a world that's destroying everything he loves. Embodying a character broken by PTSD and flashbacks from his heartbreaking past, Jenkins weaves a web of raw emotions that is seldom seen in this genre, and it's what takes this film to another level. It's hard to believe this film wasn't produced by a major studio with a huge budget. For Jenkins to have written, produced, directed and starred in this film is nothing short of miraculous. Other outstanding performances by Kevin Interdonato and Antony Sauvé make this film a joy to watch for anyone who loves the art of acting.

This film was amazing I loved the acting in it and the story line was amazing. Actors truly embodied their characters and I felt the emotional tension and message from the film. I like the emphasis on the importance of family and how it can tear a man apart when it's disrupted especially as a black man. The father and son bond in the film was awesome I can't wait for the next film in this Saga. The drug game is petty game and leaves no room for being soft but in reality we are human and I can appreciate the realness from the actors as they showed vulnerability in such a masculine world known as the drug world. This film had me on the edge of my seat as it will have you on yours.

I most definitely was glued to that screen from top to bottom!!! Wow. Mykel Shannon Jenkins has done it again! Incredible work- gifted cast, on-point writing, directing, cinematography (that opening aerial shot for starters!) and even the colors just brilliant and executed well!!! High intense emotion throughout this film took me on a ride for sure. ALL the fighting scenes felt & looked too real...like i literally could not tell if they were stunts or actually fighting wow. I just can't make this stuff up!! I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys watching suspense thriller movies- lots of twists, mystery and ACTION!!!

Great film. Excellent interpersonal drama. Terrific cinematography and musical background kept the tension and mood. I enjoyed the expert blend of the action sequences with gripping drama. The attuned interaction of the cast creates a thrilling and emotionally resonant story that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. The performances are top-notch. The film's action sequences are not just there for spectacle, but are instead grounded in character and story, which makes the scenes and outcome all the more thrilling and impactful. Gripping storylines that leave a lasting emotional impact.

I just watched The Gods 2 and loved it! It is definitely an intense, adrenaline filled, and action-packed movie which touches on loyalty, love, and revenge. In my opinion, Mykel Shannon Jenkins is an absolute genius as the screen writer, director, and actor in this film. His son, Bryce Clyde Jenkins, did a wonderful job in his film acting debut. The character development was well done and the acting portrayed a very realistic drama. I found myself really caring for the characters, even though they were gangsters. The cinematography had creative aspects which added to the realistic impact and pulled me deep into the raw and dark side of the story. I highly recommend The Gods 2!
