Review by blutojenkins

This movie spoke to me. I don't know about everybody else but, this is a harrowing tale of life on the street directed towards kids. And it is done masterfully, and no other film has even tried. With violence and realism, mixed with slapstick and melodrama, the movie strikes not one, but various chords. Of course the film has various stereotypes and muddled moments, but no film is perfect. And as people we have to relate to characters we know. This kids are pretty good actor, I liked Spanky, he had a subtle way of acting, a maturity not common to these types of film. Franky was a Darth Vader character, I mean a scenery-chewing monster you feel for. I liked it as a whole, and would rather not nit-pick on the little or even obvious flaws any film can have. Very good.
