Does anyone else think this movie is complete garbage? What happened to this kid is tragic and makes a compelling story, but it seems like the movie doesn't do justice.
It seems as if Nick Cassavetes tried to put too much "thug" into it by throwing profanity and mob mentality every 5 min along with stupid jokes. The acting is terrible, despite having a decent cast, including Bruce Willis, Sharon Stone, Ben Foster, and a few others. At times, the acting and shots just seem strangely awkward.
How in the hell did this movie get a 54% on RT? If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's on Prime Video.

That movie is awesome and kinda has a cult following. I watch it everytime I see it on. Ending caught me by surprise the first time I saw it in theatre. I didn’t know they really killed the kid

The movie was meh. I remember seeing datelines on it I think basically just because the main douche was named Jesse James Hollywood.

I like that movie well enough. If I see its on streaming, I usually check it out. Ben Foster is terrific in it. Emile Hirsch is a little shite in it, but you realize that his character is a little shite. If he had the balls to stand up to Ben Foster, he never would have had to kill a teenager.

Thought it was well done. The cast played a bunch of POS murderers well enough.
I despised every person in that story at the end except the dead kid. Who ended up dead in real life. Weird.
So I'd say it was successful in portraying how worthless they were.

Still wild to me that he didn’t put his car into park and it rolled and crushed up against his gate or garage. Crazy.

Only thing memorable about this movie is Olivia Wilde getting naked

If you see Johnny truelove tell him jake mazursky is looking for him
Ben Foster was good, I agree with the rest.

I've always liked it but they could have done without Timberlake and his falsetto voice trying to act hard.

It was about douchebags trying to act hard.

I liked it. Was very impressed with Timberlake. The kid pleading for his life at the end haunted me for a few days.

I like it. I thought Yelchin did a great job playing the kid. It's really sad that all really happened.

Not a bad movie. Makes me never want to visit Cali. Just a fricked up state.
