08/24/2012 Very well produced gritty film that highlights the life of a street kid forced into an adult life by his mothers addiction Graphic language, sexual tones. Not for childen, yet I think it would make a great film if the language and the sexua innuendos were not there. This movie is really a film on faith in God but it will turn a Christians earsand eyes away if the language can't be ignored. If this film would have been Rated PG it would have been 12Stars (There arent that many :) I loved it, he language was bad though for me. I almost changed my mid about watching but I am glad I didnt!! A Mudt see. It is in RED BOX See more 08/12/2007 I haven't seen this film yet, but Matt Wink is in it, so it has to be good. See more 06/11/2007 can't believe this is on here...a really amazing movie and I'm not just saying that because I'm in it See more 06/07/2007 One of the best indie films I have ever seen, highly recommend See more 06/04/2007 a story of a conflicted teen See more 05/12/2006 one of those ok films.
