Bus 174 holds its audience as much with narrative technique as story – grown-up street child turns armed highjacker – but other documentaries innovate more effectively. While it fails to paint a convincing picture of the protagonist’s character and motives, it succeeds as a portrait of official incompetence and corruption interacting with a dehumanised and impoverished underclass.
7 out of 10 for the suspenseful ending.
