Sixteen review
I found the film sixteen very exciting as it found it very intriguing as I shows the young boy ( Juma) and he was a child solider who was adopted by white mother who lives in a council flat . we see his past take control of him and see him struggle with little things as he aspires to be a barber. The sound helped describe what Juma was feeling as when we stressed the music would get louder. The colour
was very basic as I did like as the setting of the film where in council flat which is poor area. Overall I find the film very good and rate it out of 4/5.
