Bronx Paradise

Intense movie about the battle of right, wrong, and grey. Wonderfully produced, directed, and acted. Shows many parts of Throgs Neck in the Bronx. Extremely relatable and remains in my top 3 favorite movies. If someone wants to see what the modern day Bronx really looks like and acts like, watch this movie. Great job

If you're offended easily -- or even not that easily -- this one might not be for you. Chronicles the day-to-day grind in the life of a rampaging low-level criminal and his pals in the Bronx. Dealing drugs, getting into fights at 24 hour markets, assaulting random people on the streets ... It's like a modern-day "Mean Streets," only even more gritty. Down n dirty, done guerrilla style, the dialog will make your jaw drop with its brutal, over-the-top authenticity. These are the kind of guys who berate Asian store owners for not speaking proper English, or bring their car to a screeching stop to jump out and beat up homosexuals. The film is hilarious at times but it's also grimly violent and unbelievably "un- pc." A very effective piece of independent filmmaking. Recommended, but definitely not for everyone.
