Movie review: "VIVA RIVA"

[warumi]

The best crime sagas are stories sparked by the thrill of shortsighted dreams that ultimately lead to a violent, messy end. Congolese writer-producer-director Djo Tunda Wa Munga's feature debut "Viva Riva!" is one such gangster drama, a nastily effective, sociologically pungent genre piece about a hedonistic, low-level operator (Patsha Bay Mukuna) with a truckload of stolen fuel to sell in corrupt, gas-starved Kinshasa.

Pursued by the white-suited, sadistic Angolan (a chilling Hoji Fortuna) whom he ripped off, Riva blithely caters to his own desires, hitting on a local kingpin's bored girlfriend (Manie Malone), and corrupting his working-stiff family-man friend J.M. (Alex Herbo).

With an Elmore Leonard-like rogue's gallery of characters -- including a lesbian army commander (Marlene Longage) and her informant girlfriend (Angelique Mbumb) -- plus a swift, raw and occasionally eccentric approach to violence and sexuality, Munga treats his richly untidy exercise in brazen criminality like an ever-widening pool of spilled immorality in which no one is left unstained. As gut-punch storytelling, "Viva Riva!" delivers much, not the least of which is the promise of an exciting new filmmaking talent.

Bonge la Movie... Namkubali Riva mzee wa totoz....ila movie hii ni kwa watu zaidi ya miaka 18,maana kuna scene za hatari na nadhani hakuna demu yeyote wa Bongo movie atayekubali kuigiza scene za mtu kuzama chumvini au kuliwa mzigo ndani jacuzzi!!

Nimekuelewa, Kuna wengi hulalamikai Bongo movie bila kuelea uhalisia wa hii biashara na pia wako waio mfananisha Lupita Nyongo na wasanii wa Bongo Movie.

hii movie wamewakilisha ukweli kabisa wa mambo/matukio yanayotokea kwenye nchi zisizo na utulivu na serikali legelege kama Congo mfano yule mbabe (bandit) anayeogopewa na kila mtu.
