    Pretty good movie about 50's street gangs in Brooklyn. Lotsa cool 40's and 50's cars and a pretty good movie to boot IMO. I don't remember it coming out in 2002 though. Critics musta panned it. I just found it on my cable on demand free movies section. Most of the stuff sucks on there but this was good. Great cast too.

    I remember it coming out in theaters. I really wanted to see it, but never got the opportunity. I bought it on dvd though. It's a great movie. Most of the "movie critics" on here will prolly cast it off with Grease, and The Wanderers though. It helped that Fairuza Balk was in it. There's something about that woman that just gets me.

    My buddy and I went to see it in the theater, it was pretty cool. I also have it on DVD, I've watched it about 5 times!
     
  6. it was in and out of the theaters in a few months, not much calling for a greaser/gang movie in the early 2000's...
    good movie nevertheless

    That movie is on Rotten Tomatoes' 100 Worst Movies of all time list. I think it's number 30, check it out. I disagree, though. A little melodramatic at times, yes, but it's a good cult flick with decent acting and a great cast- Leon, (played by Stephen Dorff,) was a classic greaser tough guy.
     
  9. I just watched it after seeing this post. Same cable system as Mr Turk. Pretty decent acting and storyline. Good movie for a cold rainy evening.

    I own it. love movies that take place in the city in the 50s. lots of cool cars in the backround.

  15. WAAAAAAAY over-acted! Too much drama-for-nothing going on! Wanderers,Lords of Flatbush,American Graffitti,Porkys,Grease! There's better movies out there...Even Streets of Fire,is better than that POS!
