Slingshot

A tribute to the real potential of digital cinema, Slingshot is a slum epic on steroids. It weaves stories left and right into a shocking tableau about life for the lowest of the low in the Philippines poorest and most crime-ridden districts. National elections are coming up so in the usual attempt to appear “tough-on-crime”, The Big Boys have been sent into crack down on the the local squatters, thieves and miscreants who litter the film like broken bottle. And since no sweep is ever a clean sweep, the cops brutal shock-force tactics quickly ripple outwards with jagged repurcussions.Slingshot featuring Jiro Manio and Coco Martin is streaming with subscription on Prime Video, and available for rent or purchase on Prime Video. It's a crime and drama movie with an average IMDb audience rating of 6.6 (216 votes) and was well received by critics.
