Broken

 

Breaking (2022)


Directed by Abi Damaris Corbin this film based on real events stars John Boyega, Nicole Beharie, Selenis Leyva and Michael Kenneth Williams. A former US Marine threatens to blow up a bank if the VA does not pay him the money he is owed.


Sadly this is an all to familiar tale of the lack of care countries have for their veteran population. I have no idea how closely the film sticks to true events but the action on screen is certainly believable given the number of similar news stories. Well made and respectful enough to not be overly melodramatic.


4/5
