i buy this film second hand for real cheap a couple of year ago . i be draw in by the cool cover art that medusa picture make for it . now and despite what everybody else say . this movie really isn not bad at all and it get great soundtrack and style and actor . the main actor vince colosimo be perfect a the good look hero of the story and make the character sympathetic a a tough guy who just from the wrong side of the track and be really a nice guy . watch out for the part be he hit one of his teacher in the face when she bully him . cool scene . also the song on the end credit every beat of my heart by jon english be such a cool song . the only slight fault of this movie be that it be a tad too long but hey and we cant hold that against it . so my advice would be to get it despite of the bad comment from others . and definitely check it out if you love eighty style movie and eighty rock music cause there ton of that cool stuff . i should also mention that this film be hard to come by but you should try get it one ebay because it be worth it . the story to it be about a young dude call vinnie who do box in his spare time but keep get kick out of school . his mother be go out with a real scumbag guy because the father die . he often beat her and vinnie think hes no good for her . vinnies mother ask him to join the school band because she think it will keep him busy and off the street away from all the bad action and maybe help him with a future career . all during this film there be some really great music by rare rock band like dragon . some of the cool song be new hero and wilder world and no angel tonight all of which be brilliant tune that you will find yourself hum them for the following couple of day .
