After the Reign

About This Movie

So, 'After the Reign' is an interesting watch. It dives into the life of Benito Cruz, who starts as this outrageous social media figure—think over-the-top antics that really capture the chaotic vibe of today's online culture. As he transitions into Lil Tito, the film captures his rise to controversial fame in the hip-hop world, blending comedy with some biting social commentary. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, which oddly works with the chaotic nature of the character's life. Practical effects? Not a big focus here, but the performances are quite engaging; they really nail that tragicomic tone. It's distinctive, for sure, in how it plays with themes of fame and identity while making you chuckle and cringe simultaneously.
