One reviewer wrote: At a certain point, after all the partying, and boozing and drugging, the film takes a turn for the worse and climaxes into a gut wrenching, horrible tragedy that left me (and the audience) stunned. He also wrote that this film sucks you in. In my view, it just sucks. I watch movies to enjoy, to be entertained, to be happy. This film is depressing, dark, foreboding. There are so many Good films, why waste your time getting so depressed you want to commit suicide? Read the other reviews and you will get wildly differing opinions. There is no right opinion. You just need to be fore-warned that this film is one that is controversial, and not in a good way. Do not make the mistake thinking that, because Nick Casavetes wrote the Notebook, that this film might be in the same class. It isn't, and it isn't even close. Your time is valuable to you, spend it elsewhere.

This Movie have a lame plot and kill your nerves. The Actors like J.Timberlake are so Bad please never ever give a new role for him,poor Work real.A Movie that no one on this World need. I can't understand that Bruce play on this wrack Produktion. Most of the Movie it shows use drugs and alcohol and so. It Shows use drugs are Cool and the world is a nonstop party. Its only for Kids and low intellect People. After five minutes after the start i hope please end this drama,my free time is too good as i lose it on this Movie. I must say i don't look it to the end after ca. 60 minutes i end this terrible show. Bye Carpe

I never heard about this horrible true story but this truly represents what can happen with a mixture of drugs( steroids, cocaine etc) ,money and teenagers. Chaotic, shocking and riveting. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. All the actors were astounding especially the victim and Justin Timberlake. I'm just seeing it now and I recommend all to check it out.

This was the worst movie I have ever seen. Worse than Waterworld, worse than Dungeons and Dragons, and was put together poorly, had terrible acting, was SO over the top it was almost unintentional humor if it wasn't so bad that it's not even funny. This makes 'Gigli' look good. Literally ever other word was a ridiculous out of context swear word, as if anybody talks like that. It even leads you on by listing the witnesses at every scene. I was honestly embarrassed for the movie as it fell flat scene after scene. Put together like a middle school kid who stayed up too late, so over the top it isn't even funny. I registered at this website just to post this comment.

The most telling moment of the film is when they were all together and making fun of the rappers with guns. You had no indication that guns were a big part of their lives, but they were there, just below the surface, and used when necessary. The movie moves on to a life of partying with the drug dealing below the surface until someone stepped over the line. Then things took a real twist when a crime of opportunity presented itself. You always hoped that things would turn out for the best. You were never really prepared for a dark conclusion. It just hit and hit hard. Justin Timberlake was outstanding and the person who really carried this movie. Anton Yelchin did a really great job as Zack. I certainly enjoyed Sharon Stone and was impressed with her part. Dominique Swain was great as Susan. My biggest complaint was the unrealistic lack of skin in situations that really called for it. It was obvious enough to be a distraction.

Michael WendelSep 12, 2022

Based on a true story movie is less interesting than the controversy surrounding it- the murder case is due to go to trial at any moment and people are afraid the movie would taint the jury pool. The ads say based on the story of the youngest person on the FBI most wanted list. Truth is its a lot of young guns behaving badly in the story of a drug dealer who killed the brother of someone who owed him money in order to make a point. Twenty minutes in its clear that these are a bunch of not very bright people doing not very interesting bad things. If there had been no controversy it would have been straight to DVD, where we could have forgotten it even faster.

I could not wait to get out of the cinema, every 10 minutes, glancing at my watch. My initial thoughts were that this film, based on a true story, that I was in for 2 hours of decent film. How wrong could I be. This film lacked in plot, the characters were many and some indestinquisable and others downright impossible to understand. I don't mind swearing in films at all, but this was too much, nearly every other word was an expletive. Justin Timberlakes acting was surprising. Many singers/wannabe actors make me cringe at the absolute sputum of their acting, however timberlake pulled it off...just. The only redeeming feature was Amanda Seyfried in the pool. I strongly recommend avoiding this film unless you want to waste 2hrs on pure and total garbage.

Damn, what can I say about this film apart from it is excellent, and I mean Justin Timberlake was excellent in this film, him and the lad who played Zack Mazursky get the performances of the film, this film is thought provoking, heart wrenching, absolutely spot on, I would recommend this film to anyone, so it starts off very gangsterish and continues in that manner for most of the film but I would strongly urge anyone to give this film a chance if just to watch the ending which by the way isn't what you should just skip to and watch, you need to watch the film to truly understand what it's about. Do yourself a favour and watch the film, don't just watch some of it then switch it off thinking it's crap, give it a chance and at the end of it you will be thinking damn, that was awesome!!.
