After watching this movie, i gave it nine stars. I was really moved by the realism and the stories of its characters. Unfortunately, after reflecting upon it, i saw the characteristics and flaws of the typical socialist European movie, namely:
1 - All inmigrants are always portrayed as hapless victims of an unjust capitalist system, even though France has been a socialist democracy in the past. All the violence portrayed in the movie is always done by the evil white French people. There are no portrayals of the violence, drug dealing and murders done by islamic immigrants in France, because this would be seen as "racist"
2-As a result of #1, all White French natives are also portrayed in a negative light: they are racist, drunk, drugs addicts, assasins, white women are portrayed as whores ready to sell themselves for a buck.
3- This movie is quick to promote the typical leftist, pro-diversity Inter-racial propaganda.. it not ok for the poor struggling white woman not to like blacks, but it is ok for the rich one to sleep with them.
For a movie that supposedly criticizes neoliberalism, it is ironically filled with the same propaganda that neoliberals have been spreading through out Europe for years: Immigrants that do not assimilate into your culture are ok, ignoring your ancestor's culture is ok, all whites are evil. I wonder what this movie could have been like if its writer and director not been brainwashed with the socialist disease when he was young.
