UNDERWORLD

The film pleasantly surprised me with its scope: an international investigation, political tension, and the clash of two systems create the feel of a full-scale thriller. The editing is a bit aggressive at times, but the filmmakers’ signature energy absolutely works.

This is exactly the kind of story I enjoy an investigation that stretches from Ghana to the UK. The NIB agents aren’t superheroes, just determined professionals, and that makes the intrigue feel real.

The film is ambitious but uneven. The concept of a cross-border investigation is strong, though some dialogue lacks rhythm and certain scenes could use more breathing room. Still, the film deserves credit for its boldness.

What I like is that Underworld never tries to be clean or polished. Guns, chases, tense interrogations, it’s got all the stuff an action fan wants. Some sequences really deliver that adrenaline punch.

The story is strong, but at times it feels like the film tries to cover too much at once. I wanted more quiet moments, everything happens so fast that the characters’ emotions don’t always settle in.

Ghanaian officers operating in the UK that alone is an emotionally charged setup. You feel the tension, the injustice, the pressure, and that really pulls you in.

Honestly, I just enjoyed it! Some action, some detective work, engaging characters. A perfect movie for a chill evening.

For me, the pacing felt too jumpy - too many events, not enough focus. The acting is solid, but the presentation is occasionally overloaded. Strong concept, but I wanted a tighter execution.
