The Tribe (2016)
9/10
A film with an important message.
18 February 2017
You have to remember, this is an indie film with the budget of jack rhymes with pit. And sometimes you forget about that because it is a film with a relatively grand-scope feel to it. The director has an eye, that is for sure. You become invested in the world building and the drama becomes realistic. Anyway, the film is about a couple of chicks and their kid sister riding out the apocalypse in a shed until some lame hipster messes it all up. That is another good thing about this film, it can be seen as a euphemism for what all these lame hipsters and trendies are doing nowadays. They're basically posers and making it out like they care about the environment or politics but they're just doing it to get into your pants so be smart, ladies. But what really pisses me off is how they co-opt things in popular culture just to fit in with the rest of us. Chances are they didn't even watch the latest Godzilla movie or are straight up lying about reading all of the Game of Thrones books. They are what is wrong with society and pretty much the world today. And this film does a masterful job of expressing that. Not to mention that one chick looks pretty good running around in tight jeans. Anyway, my office ranking for this film is a 7 out of 10 but taking into consideration this was made on a shoestring budget, I'll give it an 8 out of 10. And just to offset the current ranking I'll give it a 9 out of 10.
