Fruitvale Station Review
Fruitvale Station, the directorial debut from Ryan Coogle,r can be likened to a magic trick shown in reverse. It starts with a fantastic reveal then works its way backwards to its set up. The film is based upon the real life shooting of Oscar Grant III in 2009 by a police officer during a heated exchange in the early hours of the morning. Whilst not particularly ground breaking, the film has enough positives to warrant a viewing and definitely announces Coogler as a director to watch out for.
