Blue Caprice

The Washington Snipers (2013)

Directed by Alexandre Moors this film based on real events stars Isaiah Washington, Tequean Richmond, Joey Lauren Adams and Tim Blake Nelson. An abandoned teenager falls under the sway of a controlling father figure.

It seems that this film strays from events and at times left me frustrated as it failed to show major events. If this was a fictional film I think the ambiguity would work better but when we are dealing with real events the viewer has a greater sense of wanting to know why things happened. In general I think this is a superficially interesting film that never really gets to grips with it's subject matter.


2/5
