As long as the story is solid, the pacing is well managed and everything makes sense, it’s easy to rate an independent film. Unfortunately, this film failed on nearly every metric, but… I still liked it?

2.5/5

A tough-minded cautionary tale set in the urban badlands of a crime-ridden Los Angeles...a strong story that would have been stronger without all the bells and whistles about its unquestionably worthy message.

The authenticity and Korosi’s passion for his subject propels it forward.

Live and Die in East LA is a heartfelt drama that explores the butterfly effect of choice — showing the result of one decision, then rewinding to reveal what could have happened if another path was taken. It feels raw and human, and its positive impact was recognized by the City and County of Los Angeles. At its core, it’s about how one moment can change a life forever. PS: I’m not sure why it’s being marketed as an indie Fast & Furious — it’s not. It’s much deeper, with real meaning.

Weak AF seriously! I even tried to keep an open mind about it because of how dumb and not interesting it is in the first 25-30mins because I was hoping that it would get better but it got worse and I really regret putting the extra time into such a disappointment of a movie.....
