In a blend of fiction and reality, FIVE STAR explores the relationship between two men – Primo, an actual gang leader in the East New York Bloods, and John, a young man trying to decide whether gang life is the path for him. As Primo mentors John in the workings of the gang world, a secret threatens both men's futures. The film is a nuanced portrait of two men struggling with gang life, and an intimate contemplation on manhood in the modern urban environment. (FamuFest)

And another one of those modern movies again. It's a current topic that troubles society, at least in some corners of the world, but it's presented in a way that should be realistic, but in reality, it's strongly artificial. Yes, there is no bloodshed here, because this doesn't happen in reality... This is, after all, a powerful human drama. Oh well, it didn't seem too powerful to me.
