Dope

Rick Famuyiwa, USA 2015, 103’
Short Term 12 Hunky Dory

If Scott Pilgrim was black, his name would have been Malcolm and he would have gone to school in Los Angeles and gotten his ass kicked by the neighborhood gang on a regular basis. First of all, for being a nerd, and second of all for nerding out on things meant for white people. That list includes '90s hip-hop, BMX, playing in a punk band and getting good grades.  There is something genius about setting a coming-of-age comedy in 2014 and making the main characters obsessed with '90s hip-hop. You get the best of both worlds: the pop culture references, Bitcoin, iPhones and YouTube -- paired with the flyest '90s wardrobe a teenager could ask for, a soundtrack featuring NWA, Eazy-E, Snoop Dogg, writes  The Huffington Post.” And that's just the beginning, because as the plot thickens, and the titular dope passes through another pair of unintended hands, the number of gangster shootouts, car chases, absurd dialogues and celebrities in cameos only grows. A$AP Rocky, Zoë Kravitz and Chanel Iman add flash to an already brilliant Dope.
