Amazing, Ben Foster really pulled off one of his best performances in my book for this one. Extremely sad to hear this is a true story, really pulled off the dramatic story.

Disturbing and powerful film. Surprisingly strong performance by Justin Timberlake and Yalchin.

Well-crafted and provocative, Alpha Dog is a powerful crime drama. Based on a true story, the film follows a gangster that kidnaps the 15-year-old brother of a customer and holds him as ransom. Featuring Bruce Willis, Emile Hirsch, Justin Timberlake, Ben Foster, Anton Yelchin, and Amanda Seyfried, the film has a strong ensemble cast that delivers some impressive performances. Additionally, an interesting narrative style is used that incorporates pseudo-documentary elements. Though some liberties have been taken with the story, Alpha Dog is an entertaining and compelling film.
