Menace to Society

When the film fist  starts it succeeds in painting a disturbing picture of violence in my head, one in which the characters have a lack of remorse but one thing I like is that most of the violence that is being filmed is realistic and unfolds in real time in LA. I can't image myself ever living in a place like that, where drugs and violence is happening daily.  Just the feeling of being unsafe and scared is frightening. One of the many things I noticed was that women in this film was totally excluded from the story.  I didn't really appreciate it ha ha. I also, didn't really understand why? I know many women suffer in the same kind of environment and it would have been nice to see them being representing. The movie represents an endless cycle of violence and the violent surroundings they lived and grew up in were difficult to escape and made survival harder as time went on. Human life for them had little value to them and they didn't really care if they died because they had nothing fortunate to live for. This movie is one of the few that does a good job at representing factual events happening all over and how it is a big social issue with drugs and violence.
