The first thing that hit me from watching the trailer for Vs. is that it’s “a British version of 8 mile“.
It is an interesting subject to make a British film out of. However, it does seem to hold together but the sub-plot of his mother doesn’t seem to give the same impact as the rest. Then again it does need that to make it a gritty drama!
Not only have we been sent a great selection of images.
A troubled foster teen is introduced to the “no limits” world of UK battle-rap, where his aggression and sharp lyricism quickly makes him a controversial fan favourite. But when he doorsteps his biological mother after twelve years in care, he’s forced to face his toughest opponent yet: his past.
