Editor’s note: Our short take on Boogie (2021): It leans into its Drama roots without feeling derivative. With Eddie Huang at the helm, the film feels purposeful and well-paced. Taylor Takahashi, Taylour Paige, Bashar Jackson anchor the film with grounded, unshowy work. At 1h 29m, it moves with a measured pace and rarely overstays a scene. Reception is mixed; it works best if you’re in the mood for its specific tone. Its tagline — “Shoot your shot.” — actually reflects the film’s intent. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
