I find it unbelievable how many bad ratings this film has! It covers mental health and abuse.some of the acting isn't the best but then some of the acting is really good.i think most of the bad rating were given by people expecting menace 2 society or something.i enjoyed it.

Don't expect boyz n the hood
Without sense
This movie fails to give a good story, even though it portrays some problems in society.
The problem with this film is the script, since there is no defined story, there is no conflict to resolve, there is a lack of character development, sometimes it seems that the actors just say random words. The direction doesn't help much as it doesn't clearly expose everything it wants to say. The performances are decent, but not surprising, it seems that it is just a montage of scenes that wants to show some problems in society. Some topics that are touched on, but very superficially, are that the teachings of our parents and the experiences of childhood are what will shape us when we will became adults and will be reflected in our personality and in our actions, also talks about delinquency and society's rejection of certain young people who had a hard childhood. The movie also has flashbacks that lead nowhere and an ending that is confusing and makes no sense.
The lack of focus of this film causes it to be completely ruined by not being clear about the story to be told, just as the situations that occur are very uncomfortable to watch and very difficult to digest, it is a bad film but not because of the actors and actresses that are part of it, it is a bad film because of the poor script and bad direction that ruins any good idea in the movie.
Messy direction but dark themes.
3 out of 5 stars.
A story about three troubled teens causing trouble by stealing. Beating and vandalising. Story does enter dark territory of sexual abuse and abuse within the family. The direction does have trouble trying to find its footing. Decent acting. And dull script.
