Bang Bang Club Review

1. In general, what did you like and dislike about the film?


I liked the message they tried to give.
Disliked the most of the movie jajajajaj it didn't make me angry but I laughed a lot, everything looked  like a cartoon version of the events and characters, I couldn't take the film serious because of that :( For example when they where right in between all the violence taking pictures like ninjas, that was hilarious, or when they walked into a party and everyone there was impressed and focused on these BackstreetBoys Rambo photographers (jajajajaj sorry if I'm rude, but there were a lot of hilarious situations in this film that took me completely out of it).


2.  How does the film make you think about your future role as journalists and film makers/producers/creators/directors?

It is a big thing this conflict between art and ethics for some people. I personally think that even when you can name yourself a creator  you're still a person, a human beeing and you just can't  put your personal success as an artist before your human side. At the same time the is a contribution that this work make to the fight itself. I 'd prefer to step back in this but ... I don't know, you just made me think a lot, now I don't know what to thing.


3.  In this film, and various of the other films, we have seen how black South Africans went to vote massively in April 1994 to seal the downfall of the apartheid system with the electoral triumph of Nelson Mandela and the ANC, now more than 20 years later, we see many of the problems originated during the apartheid are still present such as land inequality, class inequality, unemployment, etc.

How have the dreams from the anti-apartheid struggle played out since the ANC has been in power? (Remember to use the article South Africa’s Coming Two-Party System)

It seems like the ANC goverments has'n't completed the expectatives of needs of people in South Africa, just like if they have stepped back or aside the fight, it seems like the ANC havn't be as strong as it looked like.People are still suffering the appartheid, but now a camouflaged one.
Like it's said in the article:
"So far, the ANC has shown itself incapable of tackling a crisis that has produced the highest inequality rate in the world. Instead the party is paralyzed, and has turned to religious appeals, further neoliberalization, and strongman tactics to try to stay in power."

  2. Ethics is very important in journalism, especially when counting the intimacies of the people.

  3. there are a lot of people who thinks they can do whatever they want with other people just because they are the creators and have power over them. It's awful to think in how many lives were ruined because of this
