Plot Summary:
|
1999, Claremont, California. Stomach-level kids, in their 20s, talk odds, wave guns, hang out in a pack. Johnny Truelove, drug dealer and son of a underworld figure, threatens Jake Mazursky, an explosive noddle instance who owes Johnny money; Jake responds by breaking into Johnny's residence. On impulse, Johnny and a pair pals kidnap Jake's 15-year-old brother, Zach. Zach's okay with it, figuring his relative disposition pay the debt soon. Johnny assigns his buddy Frankie to be Zach's sitter, and they cultivate a affectionate friendship. Zach parties with his captors as things found to spin a... libi of management. Group think, amorality, and distress of prison assert a hold on the backpack. Is Zach in threat?

DON'T MISS THIS!!A film well worth watching!
I was really impressed with the performances from Timberlake, Foster and Melchin in this movie. I have just seen Justin in 'Edison' and thought that the boy has potential in acting.

Certainly killing an innocent boy as a form of damage limitation has got to be the stupidest idea ever. Some great scenes in this movie: Foster as the raving Mazursky delivers a masterful, convincing performance. Melchin as his 15 year old likeable, younger brother that gets kidnapped and killed. P...
Not bad at all.
This was surprisingly good. It does lack somewhat in depth but I suppose target audience does apply. Willis does a good job acting against type and shock horror ole timberhead is pretty good, though there might be a arguement he was playing himself in most scenes!
