Savage

This film has been made better before. I didn't really feel the involvement needed to make this film work for me. So in the end I didn't feel the bonds the savages felt. In the end a bit disappointed.

I really wanted to like this having seen the trailer but was a bit disappointed. I felt the casting let it down quite a bit and the story wasn't really anything new

Savage isn't a movie for everybody. But for some people it will be recognizable, maybe not everything but certain passages are gripping. Child abuse, violent parenthood, going down the wrong path to escape harsh reality, and of course finding the wrong crew to hang out with which is sometimes the only place you find likeminded people. I found the whole movie well made, a bit violent at times, but that's the gang life we all think about. Good acting from the whole cast also. Jake Ryan, as Damage, did a great job playing his abused character. It's not all violence, sometimes it's about compassion and forgiveness, sometimes it's emotional if you give the story a chance to unfold.

Good story about the harshness of growing up in a gang. A little explored world of growing up in a gang in New Zealand. Entertaining film througout. I thought the film could have had more central plot and developed the characters more.

C'mon, seriously, aside from any other critique possible about this film... was the Hair Department staffed with interns?
