ummm - not great

A bunch of morons fight another bunch of morons - and one moron gets killed.
Let's just say, it's difficult to feel anything for either side in this film - and I'm white.

The acting was ok - if the idea was to portray both the rednecks and the punks as morons, they've masterfully succeeded. But really.... if you are not given enough reasons to root for one side or the other, you begin to care less and less about what happens to anyone here - so that was a massive failure. As such, I suggest people to skip this one.

Cheers.

I wouldn't call it great, but I liked it and it was pretty horrific how things escalated towards the end. I agree that it's hard to feel sympathy towards these guys, but there was enough scenes to portray them as people (kids/young adults) who are lost and because of that acting this way. Worth watching i'd say.
