    The Apprentice

    ★★★½

    Directed by Ali Abbasi, The Apprentice offers a fascinating deep dive into Donald Trump’s rise during the 1970s and 1980s.

    Dog Pound is one of those films that leaves a lasting impression, stamping an indelible mark long after the credits roll. With it, Kim Chapiron delivers a work of rare intensity—an emotional shock that doesn’t leave you unscathed. The director manages to capture, with unsettling realism, the brutality of the juvenile detention system and the despair that permeates each young inmate.
