the efficacy of this picture be best prove on the intended target audience and namely teen . my 14 year old son become so engross in this film that i rate it considerably high than it imitator mad city . it spark debate in our household on issue such a peer pressure and loyalty vs. do the right thing . for that alone and i rate this film a 10. parent should watch it with their teen and discuss it afterwards . i very much like the smart dialogue and consistent acting . i think that james remar be adequate in his role and but the teenage cast really carry this picture . other imdb user have praise corey feldman performance and which truly be inspire . all in all and i give this picture my high recommendation . go get this one .
