Surprisingly powerful
5 July 1999
At the beginning of this movie I was turned off by all of the not-so-modern ghetto slang and almost wanna-be-hip attitude of the movie but I soon forgot that. It's really quite an interesting, and realistic film about a New York kid who's on the fast track to a life of crime. His dad's dead, his mom's in jail for murder, and his grandma owns a bar. He and some of his friends hangout, lift stuff from stores and generally just do illegal stuff. It escalates into a suspenseful train and then the movie just ends when he's on the way out of New York. A somewhat disappointing ending, but a good film altogether.
