Majikat Quite a film! Whilst not every action was true, the main parts were. Pretty sexually explicit, which may not be for everyone, I think I may have even watched a slightly cut version, this time viewing. That all helps build the picture of how the group were around each other and the build up to the 'plan'. Very much one of a kind, sexual, brutal and must have been one of Brad Renfro's last appearances on film.

SnoopyStyle Marty Puccio (Brad Renfro) is a life long friend to Bobby Kent (Nick Stahl). The problem is that Bobby is a violent bully who is obsessed with gay porn and uses it to dominate his friends. Marty has sex with Lisa Connelly (Rachel Miner) but Bobby beats him unconscious. Lisa discovers she's pregnant and convinces Marty to take out Bobby. She starts recruits her friends Ali Willis (Bijou Phillips), Donny Semenec (Michael Pitt), Heather Swallers (Kelli Garner) and her cousin Derek (Daniel Franzese). The incompetent teens can't get up the courage and decide to get 'hitman' Derek Kaufman (Leo Fitzpatrick) to help.This tale of disenfranchised youth is quite compelling. The young cast is haunting. Renfro, Miner and Stahl are perfect at being these kids who are spending all their time drinking, smoking and going nowhere. This is very much like River's Edge. Director Larry Clark, who directed Kids, is leering a lot at the young people's bodies. The meandering plot and the aimless teens keep the tension not that high. There are some interesting work from the actors.

trashgang Larry Clark and his controversial flicks. If you have seen one of his flicks you know what you will get. A lot of blah blah, teenagers having sex and go skating. Not that in, again, a controversial flick. This is the flick people liked the most coming from his hand because it is based on the murder of Bobby Kent. Two things make it controversial. Teens having sex, do smoke dope and are just hanging around. People will be offended by the nudity of the teens but Larry knew the law, they are all above 18. But they are all unknown 'artists' The second thing that makes it hard to watch is the fact that friends can influence each other to murder a good friend. That it all happened in real life makes it more weird. Just watch they way Bobby was killed...it's not for the easy offended. It's a rather difficult flick to watch due a lot of senseless conversations and the way they are talking to kill their best friend. It isn't filmed like a big production, it's Larry Clarck so shocking for some it will be.Gore 0,5/5 Nudity 2/5 Effects 2/5 Story 4/5 Comedy 0/5

jimmysmithx2 The movie kept my attention but I wasn't sure about the gay aspect of it and why that was important. Overall, I liked the film. I like the use of some of violent scenes where they did not show it. The scene where they brought the bat down in front of the car was pretty graphic by imagination only. I like that. The use of sex is pretty accurate of that culture and is the same location and energy of most high school spring break trips... there, it's just all year like that. I don't think we needed to see all of the full frontal, but I don't think it took away from the film. The hot wax and things like that were things that were mimic'd in my high school because of this movie. We used to joke about some of these things, but would also do it to be cool. Ah, the ignorance of our youth.
