    Halfway decent action/drama with gang overtones. Cast is outstanding with the performers both young and old hitting the right marks. A fairly balanced ensemble.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

The movie crosses two formulas -- Fish Out of Water and Coming of Age -- fairly effectively. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
