About This Movie

Gotham: The Fall and Rise of New York is a fascinating documentary that dives deep into the tumultuous transformation of New York City from the early '90s to the early 2010s. It’s gritty, yet hopeful, showcasing a city that was once plagued by rampant crime—2200 murders in 1990, can you believe it? The pacing feels just right; it doesn't rush through the chaos but rather lets you absorb the weight of what the city endured. The interviews, combined with archival footage, really bring the atmosphere to life. You can almost feel the tension of those streets. What makes it stand out is its focus on the people behind the statistics—how resilience turned the tide. It’s not just numbers; it’s stories.
