Okay, let's set the record straight. This movie was in concept and script a very awesome choice for the average viewer, but some scenes were elegantly pulled off, and some were just pulled off. The lead character "Josh" was a convincing complicated teenager (except if you read into it, you can tell that JRM is originally irish)and Matthew Modine is a beautifully acted older brother. Now the I already told you that the actors were great and so was the script, but the scenes were jumpy and sometimes hard to catch. Seeing the movie a second time is highly recommended, not only because the movie was wonderful, but to laugh at some pretty funny scenes (aka josh being pulled over by the chick cop).Overall? Highly recommended.

Alrighty, here's the truth of this movie...its supposed to be an actiony/drama, but seriously, its FUNNY. I mean really! In normal circumstances, I'd say stay away from this film, but if you're a fan of any of the actors (I'm a JRM fan) then its worth a watch. Don't take it seriously though, because you may hurt yourself or your television, however. Just realize your watching it because you love the actors...

its about a young boy(Meyers) who falls prey to his older brother(Modine) and he enters into a life of crime. boring to say the least but Modine sorta is good as always and Meyers is sorta alittle pretty boy fanstasy for the ladies but whats the point really. its intersting but never quite adds up and I fell alseep at some point

i like this movie a lot and an happy to own it. there are certian priceless scenes (when josh gets pulled over by the chick cop) that provide endless amusement and private jokes. it's a good flick you want something that's fun and not too intense. i highly reccommend this movie to anyone who wants a cool action flick in their collection that hasn't been seen by everyone and their dog already. ...and if you're a JRM fan (as i am) then it simply becomes a nessicity to own for a complete collection.

Well I bought this movies because I have a thing for Michael Madsen (even though alot of his movies aren't that great,)I've been really into the show Weeds and I couldn't remember any movies I had seen Mary Louise Parker in, and I love Fairuza Balk. Sadly to say this movies sucked, the story line is just stupid to me. As I watched I remembered that I had seen the movie on channel 20 (houston channel formerly UPN, now MY NETWORK TV or my20) where they play alot of B movies on the weekends, every now and then I might catch something not to bad, but I remembered turning this movie after the brother gets pulled while having to pee real bad. Don't waste your money, I'm sure it with will come on regular t.v. again someday and only watch if you have absolutely nothing else to do or watch. I only gave it three stars because it arrived promptly and in good condition.
